Collections

Collections are how you organize what you save. Group related web pages, notes, and research into themed sets — then optionally distill them into context your AI tools can use.

Collection detail view with three-panel layout

The collections view

The collections page uses a three-panel layout:

  1. Collection list (left) — all your collections, shared collections, and the Inbox
  2. Artifact list (middle) — the contents of the selected collection
  3. Artifact preview (right) — a live preview of the selected artifact

All three panels are resizable, so you can adjust the layout to suit how you work.

Creating a collection

Click the + button at the top of the collection list. Give your collection a name and description — the description helps you (and search) understand what the collection is for.

What's inside a collection

Each collection shows:

  • A source count at the top
  • Sort controls — sort by date or alphabetically (A–Z), with ascending/descending toggle
  • Search — filter artifacts within the collection
  • Save URL — add a web page directly to this collection
  • New note — create a markdown note inside the collection
  • Add context — write or generate a distilled context document for the collection

Below those actions, you'll see your artifacts listed with their source domain, title, description, and age.

Collection settings

Click the gear icon on any collection to access:

  • Edit name & description — update the collection's metadata
  • Public sharing — share the collection publicly as a snapshot or live view
  • Workspace sharing — share with other workspaces you belong to
  • Delete collection — permanently remove the collection

Collections list

All collections view showing Inbox, shared collections, and owned collections

Inbox

The Inbox is a special collection that appears at the top of the list. When you save a page without choosing a specific collection, it lands here. Think of it as a triage area — save now, organize later.

Shared collections

Collections shared with you from other workspaces appear under the "Shared with you" section in the collection list. These show the source workspace name and artifact count.

Distilled context

The + Add context button on a collection lets you create a distilled summary — a dense context document that captures the key insights, code examples, and patterns from everything in the collection. Collections that have been distilled appear on the Distilled page in the sidebar, where you can browse them and see token counts.

Context documents have their own version history. Each time you update the context, the previous version is saved and you can compare changes with a built-in diff viewer. This makes it safe to iterate — you can always roll back.

This is particularly useful when working with AI tools. Instead of feeding dozens of individual pages as context, you distill them into one focused reference document. Via MCP, the read_collection_context and write_collection_context tools let AI assistants read and update context programmatically — so your assistant can distill a collection for you in a single prompt.
