CellCog Drive Guide
Drive is your personal cloud storage in CellCog. Store files, organize with folders, and access your content from any chat.
Accessing Drive
Click Drive in the sidebar to open your personal storage.
CellCog Drive vs Google Drive
These are two completely separate things:
- CellCog Drive is your personal cloud storage within CellCog. Files are stored on CellCog's servers. When an agent "saves to Drive," it saves here.
- Google Drive (via Connectors) is an import source — it lets you pull files from your Google Drive into CellCog (projects, chats, etc.). It's a one-way import, not a sync.
They do not share storage. Saving a file to CellCog Drive does not put it on your Google Drive, and vice versa.
