# Artifacts and generated files

Open an artifact from the transcript, inspect its rendered and source views, copy or save it, and confirm whether it is also written to the project.

## Where this lives

Open a task, reveal the right panel, and use the Stage title to open its surface switcher.

The Stage presents the live surface relevant to the current work: plan, artifact, file, terminal, browser, source-control view, media, process, or recalled memory.

> **Safety:** A rendered preview is evidence, not always the source of truth. Verify persistent output in its actual destination.

## Steps

1. Open a task, reveal the right panel, and use the Stage title to open its surface switcher.
2. Open an artifact from the transcript.
3. Inspect its rendered and source views.
4. Copy or save it.
5. Confirm whether it is also written to the project.
6. **Confirm the result.** Confirm the Stage result agrees with the transcript and the underlying file, process, browser page, or artifact.

## Choose the right path

- Follow a plan for multi-step work.
- Open an artifact for a polished output.
- Use supporting surfaces to inspect terminals, files, browser state, or memory.


## Confirm it worked

- Confirm the Stage result agrees with the transcript and the underlying file, process, browser page, or artifact.
- The screen, command, file, run, or destination named in this guide reflects the expected state.
