What it is
Whole-project snapshots capturing Basics, Characters, Items, Milestones, and Story chapters (including prose content). Manual snapshots get a label; auto-snapshots fire when sprints complete. Restore any version with a one-click rollback.
When to use it
- Before a major refactor (renaming the protagonist, restructuring chapters).
- Bookmarking the GDD state at the end of each sprint.
- Undoing a destructive change someone made yesterday.
- Comparing two points in time via the Compare diff.
How to use it
- 1Click "Save Version" — name it ("Pre-Combat-Refactor" / "v0.3 Pitch").
- 2Restore from any saved version via the kebab menu on the version row.
- 3Compare two versions with the Compare button — added/removed/modified counts per section.
Tips you should know
- →Free has no version history; Pro 20 manual snapshots; Team unlimited.
- →Auto-snapshots from sprint completion + restore-safety count toward the Pro cap.
- →Restoring fires its OWN auto-snapshot first ("Before restore to vX") — you can always undo an undo.
- →Chapter prose lives in ShareDB but snapshots DO capture it — restore brings back the full text, not just titles.
