Your project at a glance: the workflow from import to change impact, the next step to take, your drafts and the latest documents.

Where Sidebar → Home

The Home page of a project: the workflow rail with the next step, the Getting started checklist and the latest documents.

What you see

  1. OverviewHow many sources the project has, and a reminder that canon holds only facts a person accepted, each tied to its exact passage.
  2. Getting startedA checklist for editors that ticks itself off as the project fills up. See Getting started.
  3. WorkflowSix steps in order: Import, Review, Canon, Conflicts, Changes, Metrics, each with its count. Under them, Next step names the first one that isn’t done, with a button that takes you there.
  4. Uploads and Your draftsFiles you just dropped, with their results, and the drafts only you can see. A draft isn’t part of the story until you save it.
  5. LibraryDocument and version counts, what is waiting in Review, canon that Needs re-check after a source changed, and the six most recently changed documents.
  6. Add sourcesEditors get three ways in: the Broken Tide demo (admins and owners), Write it here and Your files.

Add your first sources

  1. Press Import files and pick Markdown, text or Word (.docx) files, or drop them anywhere on Home.
  2. Watch each file under Uploads: it is stored read-only and the AI proposes candidate facts.
  3. Press the review button in Uploads to decide on the candidates in Review.
  4. Or press Write a document to write or paste a scene in the app. Once the project has sources, the same button is New document under Add sources.

Search the project

  1. Press Search in the sidebar, or Ctrl K (⌘K on Mac).
  2. Type a name, a word from a scene or a fact: results come from canon facts, entities (any alias too), documents and notes.
  3. Move with the arrow keys and press Enter to open a result; a document result opens at the matching passage.
  4. Type a command instead, such as New document, Scan conflicts, Propose change or Toggle theme.

Pick up where you left off

  1. Read Next step in the workflow and press its button.
  2. Open a draft from Your drafts to keep writing.
  3. Open a recent document from Library, or press Open the library for all of them.

Search

Search covers accepted canon, entities, documents and notes in the open project. With nothing typed it shows your Recent results and the Commands. Viewers only get the commands that read. See Keyboard shortcuts.
