Every change kept.
Every version of a page is kept and names its writer. Ask what changed this week, and Claude answers from the history, not from memory.
new words
- Version
- One saved state of a page. A new one on every write.
- Writer
- Who made a version: you in the cockpit, one named window of yours, a login of your AI, or an agent.
- Review
- Where a restored page waits, read by you alone, until you check who reads the space and publish it.
the lesson
A page is rewritten, never extended with a dated note: the store keeps every version, so nothing is kept twice. No archive folder, no old text under a heading.
| An open space keeps | For |
|---|---|
| Every version | 30 days |
| Then one a day | A year |
| Then one a week | As long as the space lives |
| A deleted page | As a marker, with its versions |
Each version names its writer and its time. In a window of yours, the writer is that window: "Mara, in the sales window". So "who changed the pricing page" has an answer, and so does "what changed in Acme this week".
A reader and an editor see a space as it is now. Its managers see its history by their role: old versions, removed pages, and the changes feed. Anyone else sees history only through a recovery grant from the space's content owner. A restore goes into a review first: you read it alone, check who reads the space, and publish it as the page's next version.

- In a space you only read: the pages as they are now; the history needs a manager or a recovery grant.
