Replit Agent Can Now Message and Create Chats
ReplitReplit now lets users ask Agent to send a message to another chat or create a new chat, so they no longer copy and paste messages or prompts between chats themselves. The feature is available to Pro and Enterprise users.
Key Takeaways
- Users can ask Agent to send a message to another chat, replacing the manual hand-off between conversations.
- Agent can also create a new chat on request, so starting a fresh conversation no longer means rebuilding the prompt.
- The update removes copy and paste of messages and prompts, which Replit names directly as the problem it solves.
- Access is limited to Pro and Enterprise users, so other plans do not get it in this release.
- Replit lists it under its Platform updates for October 30, 2026, alongside the GPT-6.1 Terra model addition.
- The announcement is brief and does not describe how a target chat is chosen, so details are best checked in the product.
Ask Agent to Message or Create a Chat
Replit added a way to move work between chats without leaving the conversation. Users can now ask Agent to send a message to another chat, or to create a new chat, instead of copying and pasting messages or prompts by hand.
Previously, passing context from one chat to another meant copying the text out of one conversation and pasting it into the next. With this update, the user simply asks Agent to do it, and Agent handles the message or the new chat.
Availability
