Generate a file
1
Describe the deliverable
In chat, name the content, purpose, and preferred file type. Include the data or constraints the result must follow.
2
Send the request
Mythos creates the file as part of the request. When delivery succeeds, the new output appears in the project’s Files tab.
3
Review the result
Open Files, search by filename, and select the output. Mythos shows an in-browser preview when that file type supports one.
4
Use the file
Select Download to save a copy, or Reference in chat to include a supported generated file in a later request.
Manage generated files
The Files view groups outputs by type and includes search. Select a file to preview it, download it, reference it in chat, or delete it. If a later request produces a file with the same name, it replaces the earlier file instead of adding another copy. Each generated file can be up to 25 MiB, and Files keeps the newest 100 generated files for each project.Generated files vs project files
- A generated file in Files is a private deliverable. It does not automatically appear on the website or become public when you publish.
- Website images, styles, and other app assets belong to the project itself and appear in Code.
- Files attached to a prompt are inputs for that request. They do not appear in Files; see Chat attachments.
Troubleshooting
The file is not in Files
The file is not in Files

Some file types are download-only. Select Download and open the file in an app that supports it.

A same-name output may have replaced it, or it may have aged out after the project reached 100 generated files.
