Use the project sidebar
The sidebar groups project actions by intent. It is a shortcut for the CLI, not a separate source of truth: the status view tells you which copy is newer before an action changes it.
- Project: refresh, doctor, open workbook, and open documentation;
- Modules/UserForms: create, rename, delete, reveal source, open procedures, and build individual or all UserForms;
- Execution: pull, push, run, tests, save, and session start/stop;
- Formulas: pull and open formula snapshots;
- Recovery: inspect status, roll back, prune backups, and clear quarantine.
Actions operate on the configured project. Check the status view before destructive or source-of-truth-changing actions. In particular, choose Pull after edits in Excel/VBE, choose Push after edits in VS Code, and choose Save only when a live session has changes you mean to keep. If the status is uncertain, open the state model instead of guessing.
Use a UserForm row's build button or context menu to build its FormSpec, or use Build All UserForms in the view toolbar. Confirm the target workbook and forms before existing workbook forms are overwritten. If target source or Designer changes are pending, choose Save and Build to save those changes first. Forms without a Spec cannot be built; duplicate Specs must be resolved first.
Builds run sequentially in one Excel session and save the workbook once after all selected forms succeed. An existing session remains open. If a build fails, later forms are not run and the session remains available with its pending changes; the result lists completed, failed and remaining forms. The batch does not roll back earlier successful builds.
