+title: "Add a Page"
+description: "Build a React route that displays your saved data and wire it into the sidebar so the agent can navigate to it."
+---
+
+# Add a Page
+
+This is part four of the Getting Started series. In [Persist Data in SQL](/docs/getting-started-database) you saved action results to a database. Here you'll build a page that displays that data and connect it to the sidebar.
+
+## Add a page the agent can open {#add-a-page}
+
+Chat is great for conversational interaction, but some data is better inspected
+in a dedicated UI: a table you can scan, sort, or delete rows from. This step
+adds a React route that displays everything saved in `text_analyses`, using the
+same `list-text-analyses` and `delete-text-analysis` actions you already wrote.
+There's no second data layer. The page is just a view over the same SQL state
+the agent reads and writes.
+
+Create the route file at `app/routes/text-analyses.tsx`. Route files in
+`app/routes/` are automatically picked up by the framework. The filename
+becomes the URL path, so this page will be available at
+`http://localhost:8080/text-analyses`.
+
+```tsx filename="app/routes/text-analyses.tsx"
+import {
+  useActionMutation,
+  useActionQuery,
+} from "@agent-native/core/client/hooks";
+
+export default function TextAnalysesRoute() {
+  const analyses = useActionQuery("list-text-analyses", {});
+  const deleteAnalysis = useActionMutation("delete-text-analysis");
+
+  return (
+    <main className="mx-auto flex max-w-3xl flex-col gap-6 p-6">
+      <header>
+        <h1 className="text-2xl font-semibold">Text analyses</h1>
+        <p className="text-muted-foreground">
+          Results saved by the agent or triggered manually.
+        </p>
+      </header>
+      <section className="flex flex-col gap-3">
+        {analyses.data?.length === 0 && (
+          <p className="text-muted-foreground">No analyses saved yet.</p>
+        )}
+        {analyses.data?.map((row: any) => (
+          <article
+            key={row.id}
+            className="flex items-start justify-between rounded-lg border p-4"
+          >
+            <div className="flex flex-col gap-1">
+              <p className="text-sm font-medium">{row.input}</p>
+              <p className="text-xs text-muted-foreground">
+                {row.word_count} words · {row.char_count} characters ·{" "}
+                {row.sentence_count} sentences
+              </p>
+            </div>
+            <button
+              className="text-xs text-destructive hover:underline"
+              onClick={() => deleteAnalysis.mutate({ id: row.id })}
+            >
+              Delete
+            </button>
+          </article>
+        ))}
+      </section>
+    </main>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+`useActionQuery` calls `list-text-analyses` and keeps the result live. If the
+agent saves a new row while the page is open, it appears automatically.
+`useActionMutation` calls `delete-text-analysis` when the user clicks Delete,
+then invalidates the query so the list refreshes.
+
+Open `http://localhost:8080/text-analyses` in your browser. If you saved an
+analysis in the previous step you'll see it listed. Then ask the agent in chat:
+
+> Open the text analyses page.
+
+If you get a 404, try restarting your dev server.
+
+The agent calls the `navigate` action (already included in the Chat
+template) to send the browser to `/text-analyses`. This is what it looks like
+with a few saved rows:
+
+<WireframeBlock id="doc-block-response-insights-page-wireframe">
+  <Screen
+    surface="desktop"
+    html={
+      "<main style='min-height:400px;box-sizing:border-box;padding:28px;background:var(--wf-bg)'><div style='max-width:720px;margin:0 auto;display:flex;flex-direction:column;gap:20px'><header><h2 style='margin:0 0 4px;font-size:24px;font-weight:600'>Text analyses</h2><p class='wf-muted' style='margin:0;font-size:14px'>Results saved by the agent or triggered manually.</p></header><section style='display:flex;flex-direction:column;gap:10px'><article class='wf-card' data-rough style='display:flex;align-items:center;justify-content:space-between;padding:14px 16px'><div><p style='margin:0 0 4px;font-size:14px;font-weight:500'>Hello world</p><p class='wf-muted' style='margin:0;font-size:12px'>2 words · 11 characters · 1 sentence</p></div><span class='wf-muted' style='font-size:12px'>Delete</span></article><article class='wf-card' data-rough style='display:flex;align-items:center;justify-content:space-between;padding:14px 16px'><div><p style='margin:0 0 4px;font-size:14px;font-weight:500'>The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.</p><p class='wf-muted' style='margin:0;font-size:12px'>9 words · 44 characters · 1 sentence</p></div><span class='wf-muted' style='font-size:12px'>Delete</span></article><article class='wf-card' data-rough style='display:flex;align-items:center;justify-content:space-between;padding:14px 16px'><div><p style='margin:0 0 4px;font-size:14px;font-weight:500'>Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs.</p><p class='wf-muted' style='margin:0;font-size:12px'>8 words · 40 characters · 1 sentence</p></div><span class='wf-muted' style='font-size:12px'>Delete</span></article></section></div></main>"
+    }
+  />
+</WireframeBlock>
+
+## Extend the navigation {#extend-navigation}
+
+The sidebar's links are a plain array in `app/components/layout/Sidebar.tsx`,
+not a separate config file. Open it and add an entry for the Text analyses
+page next to the existing Chat entry:
+
+```tsx filename="app/components/layout/Sidebar.tsx"
+import { IconList, IconMessageCircle } from "@tabler/icons-react";
+
+const navItems = [
+  {
+    icon: IconMessageCircle,
+    labelKey: "navigation.chat",
+    href: "/",
+    view: "chat",
+  },
+  {
+    icon: IconList,
+    labelKey: "navigation.textAnalyses",
+    href: "/text-analyses",
+    view: "text-analyses",
+  },
+];
+```
+
+`icon` takes an imported Tabler icon component, not a string name. `labelKey`
+looks up a string in the i18n catalog (`app/i18n/en-US.ts` and the other
+locale files); an unregistered key still renders — it falls back to a
+humanized version of the key (`navigation.textAnalyses` becomes "Text
+analyses") — but add it to the catalogs if you want the label translated. See
+[Internationalization](/docs/internationalization).
+
+Save the file. The dev server picks up the change automatically and the sidebar
+updates without a restart.
+
+### Agent navigation
+
+The sidebar link lets users navigate manually. The agent can also open pages on
+its own using two built-in actions that ship with the Chat template:
+
+- **`view-screen`** reads the current route and returns a compact summary of
+  what the user is looking at.
+- **`navigate`** writes a same-origin path to the browser's history.
+
+As you add more pages, keep `navigate` updated so the agent knows what
+destinations exist. Document available paths in `AGENTS.md` so the model can
+reason about them.
+
+When the app has both a full-page chat route and an app page, use the shared chat
+handoff helpers described in [Agent Surfaces](/docs/agent-surfaces#rich-chat):
+`AgentChatSurface`, `AgentSidebar`, `useAgentChatHomeHandoff`,
+`useAgentChatHomeHandoffLinks`, and `chatViewTransition`. That lets the full
+chat slide into the side panel as the page opens, keeping the same thread while
+the user inspects durable data.
+

+
+You've built a complete agentic app: a working chat interface, an action, inline
+rendering, a database, and a page the agent can navigate to. From here:
