# Create File

The Create File tool allows the model to generate text-based files. Supported file types include, but are not limited to:

* Code and script files
* CSVs
* PDFs
* Text

If the [Active Directory](/tools/set-active-directory.md) is set, the files will be created in that directory. If the Active Directory is not set, the files will only be accessible within the chat.
