Artifacts Overview

Fresh

Artifacts are anything the agent creates to communicate its work. They are the primary way the agent shares progress, plans, and results with you.

Artifact Types

TypeDescription
Rich MarkdownFormatted documentation, plans, and explanations
Diff ViewsSide-by-side code change comparisons
Architecture DiagramsVisual representations of system design
ImagesScreenshots, generated visuals
Browser RecordingsPlayable recordings of browser subagent actions
Code DiffsInline code changes with additions and deletions highlighted

Where Artifacts Appear

  • Agent Manager -- All artifacts are visible in the conversation view
  • Editor -- Artifacts that relate to files appear in the editor context

Review & Feedback

  • The agent may ask for review on intermediate artifacts based on your Artifact Review Policy setting
  • You can comment on artifacts to provide feedback
  • Comments guide the agent to iterate on its work before proceeding

TIP

Artifacts are produced primarily in Planning mode. If you need the agent to produce detailed plans and architecture diagrams before coding, make sure you are in Planning mode.
