# Work together on a computer

A teammate's computer gives you a visible browser and desktop for work that needs an interactive screen. You can watch, take control, and return control to the teammate.

## Open and inspect

Open the computer from the teammate's conversation. Give it a concrete task and identify the page or file involved. The status tells you whether the computer is starting, running, or waiting for input.

If the viewer encounters a loading failure, allow it to recover. Use **Retry** if an error remains. A slow screen does not by itself mean the task failed.

## Take control

Use the computer's control action when you need to interact directly. Complete website sign-in or another requested step on the screen, then release control so the teammate can continue.

On a phone, take control and select **Keyboard**. Tap the intended field on the remote screen before typing. Check that text is reaching the right field; if typing stops with an error, close the keyboard and inspect the computer before continuing.

## Teach a repeat task

The computer teaching flow lets you demonstrate a task for a teammate to reuse. Review the saved skill in teammate settings and give it a clear name.

> Open this page on your computer and walk through the form up to the final submission. Tell me which fields need information from me.

Use [workspace files](/docs/tools/workspace-files) to inspect and download the outputs.
