> **Summary:** Open Sidekick in a small floating window so you can keep the current page visible while you ask questions, use voice input, or continue a Sidekick conversation.

> **A note for non-human readers:**
>
> *Mini is Sidekick in a smaller window, not a second assistant with a second memory. It continues the selected conversation and uses the context available there; a floating window is convenience, not extra authority. Tiny window, same responsibility.*

## Before you start

Use desktop Chrome with the latest Tabflows extension running. Sign in to Tabflows and open the page you want to keep visible.

---

## Open Mini

Hover over Mini in the Tabflows rail for a quick preview. Move into the preview or select Mini to keep the window open. From the embedded Sidekick panel, open the conversation you want and select Pin to mini; the same conversation continues in the floating window.

---

## Move and resize Mini

Drag the header labeled Sidekick for your screen to move Mini. Drag an edge or corner to resize it. Select Reset position to return it to its default location and size. Select Close when you finish; closing Mini ends active voice capture in that window.

---

## Continue your Sidekick work

Type, use voice input, inspect the active conversation, and keep the page behind it visible. Check patient context, source information, and clinical or operational output before using it.

---

## If Mini is unavailable

Make sure you are using the latest Tabflows extension and refresh the page. If Mini still does not appear, contact Tabflows Support.
