How do I navigate CrossBeam as a reviewer?
Quick answer: The top nav has five things: the CrossBeam wordmark (home), Projects (the Plan Reviews queue), Drive (loose files), Ask AI (your city's code assistant), and your email — the user menu. Everything else is reached from there.
The top nav, left to right
| Item | What it does |
|---|---|
| CrossBeam (wordmark) | Returns you to /dashboard. |
| Projects | The Plan Reviews queue. Your main workspace. |
| Drive | Loose files — uploads that aren't tied to a specific submittal. |
| Ask AI | Chat with the code assistant scoped to your city (e.g. /chat/buena-park). Good for "what are the setbacks for a detached ADU?" type questions. |
| Your email (dropdown) | User menu — sign out, settings, retake the tour. |
Moving between screens
- From the queue, click a submittal to open the project detail.
- From a project, click ← Back to dashboard (top-left) to return.
- From any screen, click CrossBeam in the top-left to reset to the dashboard.
