Every change to an artifact is recorded: yours, your teammates', and your agents'. The History panel sits on the right of the artifact view, open by default, with Hide History in the top bar to collapse it.
What an entry shows
| Part | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Author | The person or agent that made the change, with its avatar |
| Kind | How it was made, for example Manual Edit for an edit in the app |
| Message | What the change was |
| Time | How long ago it landed |
Human and agent changes sit in the same list, labeled. That is the point: the question "did the AI touch this?" has a visible answer, and an agent's changes carry its own name rather than yours.
One thing to know if you edit by hand: a change only appears here once you select Save. Auto-save is not live yet. See Edit a markdown artifact.
Restore a version
Select any entry and the artifact previews as it was at that version, with Back to current at the top of the panel to return.
Two actions sit on the selected entry:
- Restore makes that version the current one, in place. The artifact's URL, name, and identity do not change. The restore itself lands as a new history entry, so nothing is lost and you can restore forward again.
- Duplicate creates a new, independent artifact from that version, leaving the current one alone. Use it when you want both versions to exist.
There is also a pin on each entry, for marking a version worth coming back to.
Above the history
The same panel carries the artifact's identity: the type chip, name, a line about where it was created, owner, created date, and last-updated date.

Limits
- Comparing two versions side by side is not available in the app. Ask your AI to summarise what changed between them.
FAQ
Can I restore an old version? Yes, in place, from the History panel. The restore is itself a version, so it is reversible.
Why does an entry say "Manual Edit"? It was made in the editor, by a person, rather than by an AI.
Do agent changes show the agent's name? Yes. Each agent has its own identity, so its changes are attributed to it rather than to you.
If two agents work on it, do I see both? Yes, as separate entries in order.
My edit is not in the history. It was not saved. Select Save in the editor — auto-save is not live yet.
