    The knowledge base states that "Automated scripting or excessive programmatic access may be subject to additional restrictions" with Gordon, but it does not provide a specific example of what constitutes automated scripting or excessive programmatic access. The documentation only clarifies that Gordon is intended for interactive use cases such as active development, learning, optimizing Docker configurations, and troubleshooting—not for automated or scripted usage patterns.

    Therefore, I cannot provide a concrete example from the knowledge base.

    pretty much useless the moment you need a little bit extra info, like how to pass extra arguments to opencode cli using docker sandbox? literally the most basic thing but its saying there are no docs and it's unable to infer this from the docker template images, literally useless.

    @gund thanks for the feedback - I just noticed this (passing args to opencode in sbx) is a gap in the docs, which is why gordon wouldn't answer. I'll make sure to get this updated.

    how about adding a scrollbar to the gordon pane? on EdgeChromium/Windows10 the scrollbar on the right scrolls the page underneath

    @birbilis it should be scrollable... 🤔

    see the scrollbar on the right and the page underneath, it scrolls that one

    trying touchpad gesture (two fingers scroll down, guess it works with mousewheel too), I can scroll up/down in the Gordon pane (when it reaches the end though it starts scrolling the page underneath which is a bit annoying - same if I use up/down arrow keys on keyboard). However no scrollbar in that pane to use with the mouse cursor, nor anyother widget to move up/down

    Please update the home page to provide an AI free search bar as well as (or instead of) the Gordon prompt. The Search button in the upper right works, but for a new user hitting the landing page the first impression is that AI has replaced search. That creates unnecessary friction for anyone who wants to find accurate and reliable documentation.

    If I click on a doc link of Gordon's response, and then re-click on the Gordon button, I see the whole conversion but not last Gordon's response. (Firefox)

    in prompt input box, need up-arrow key to recall the last several prompts from recent history. need urgently because usually first prompt turns out to be not specific enough.
