# Reviewing changes

Open changed-file indicators or source control, compare additions and removals, check unexpected files, and request corrections before commit.

## Where this lives

Open a project-backed task, then choose the project from the Stage.

The file surface shows the active project tree, open tabs, file contents, agent edits, diagnostics, and generated project files.

> **Safety:** Generated and agent-edited files are ordinary project files. Review diffs before overwriting, deleting, or committing them.

## Steps

1. Open a project-backed task, then choose the project from the Stage.
2. Open changed-file indicators or source control.
3. Compare additions and removals.
4. Check unexpected files, and request corrections before commit.
5. **Confirm the result.** Reload or reopen the file and run the appropriate formatter, test, build, or preview.

## Choose the right path

- Edit directly for small precise changes.
- Ask an agent for multi-file work.
- Open an external editor when specialized tooling is needed.


## Confirm it worked

- Reload or reopen the file and run the appropriate formatter, test, build, or preview.
- The screen, command, file, run, or destination named in this guide reflects the expected state.
