Overview
The FastGPT Agent v2 Virtual Machine (VM) File Manager is a native tool for interacting with files stored inside a container during agent debugging. This tool streamlines debugging workflows by eliminating reliance on external file management utilities, creating a fully closed debugging loop for container-based agent development. Supported file types include charts, code files, and HTML previews, alongside other standard container-stored assets.
Access Shortcut Locations
Two distinct shortcut entries provide access to the VM File Manager:
- A persistent, top-aligned shortcut on the chat window for the active Agent v2 deployment
- Contextual shortcuts that appear directly beneath chat bubbles containing VM operations
Selecting either shortcut opens a dedicated modal interface for all file management tasks related to the container.
Core Modal Capabilities
The opened modal supports four core file management actions tailored for container debugging:
- Browse the complete hierarchical structure of the container’s file system
- Edit the content of existing files stored within the container
- Upload new local files to the container’s file system
- Download existing container files to a local machine
