Artifacts Overview
FreshArtifacts 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
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Rich Markdown | Formatted documentation, plans, and explanations |
| Diff Views | Side-by-side code change comparisons |
| Architecture Diagrams | Visual representations of system design |
| Images | Screenshots, generated visuals |
| Browser Recordings | Playable recordings of browser subagent actions |
| Code Diffs | Inline 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.
