Working with artifacts
Click a linked file in the conversation to open it in a tab beside the chat. Open Files in the sidebar for a searchable grid of every artifact in the project. From an artifact’s menu you can: Open, Open beside session, View in context, Provenance, Versions, Copy link, Star, Rename, Download, or Delete. Renaming doesn’t break links. Delete removes all versions permanently. Files you attach or drop into the composer are listed under Your uploads. To copy artifacts outside the app, use Download for a single file, or open the project’s folder under ~/.claude-science and copy the files directly.Versions
When Claude saves the same filename again in the same session, the artifact gains a new version. You can also edit text-based artifacts (Markdown, code, plain text) directly: click Edit content, make changes, and Save to create a new version. Images, PDFs, HTML, and tables can’t be edited in place. When an artifact file is open, a version stepper and Diff vs previous version appear. Older versions are read-only; to restore one, ask Claude to save it again. Links Claude puts in the conversation point to the specific version that existed at the time.Provenance
Every artifact version records how it was made. Open Provenance from an artifact’s menu to see five tabs:- Messages: the conversation around the save.
- Code: a reproducible script, downloadable as a script or notebook.
- Execution Log: every command that ran.
- Environment: the environment name, language version, and every installed package with its version.
- Review: findings from the reviewer.
