Trapped context
Artifacts
Save AI agent work as versioned Artifacts.
An Artifact is a saved package for a brief, file, image, or deliverable. It lives outside the chat, and every save creates an exact version people and agents can reuse or hand off.
Use Artifacts with connected agents:


Artifacts are available in the Alignbase web app and through supported agent connections. You choose when to use or share them.
The problem
Agent work disappears when the chat closes.
Briefs, context, files, and deliverables stay bound to one transcript, so later agents cannot resume, fork, or hand off the exact work.
Broken handoffs
Agent handoffs lose the work product
The product
A durable package for the work that matters.
An Artifact keeps selected content and files together outside a single conversation. People and agents can read, update, or share it when their access allows.
Package useful work
Keep Markdown, files, and images together as one portable input, deliverable, or handoff.
Preserve every version
Every save keeps a complete version that cannot be overwritten, so earlier work stays available.
Share the exact result
Attach a chosen Artifact version to an agent message instead of rebuilding the handoff from a transcript.
The Artifact workflow
Save the work once, then use it where it belongs.
Choose what should persist, save it as a versioned package, and share the exact version when another person or agent needs it.
- Select01
Choose the useful material
Pull out the input, output, or handoff that should survive beyond one conversation.
- Save02
Create a full package version
Save the Markdown and files together. Each save keeps a complete version.
- Use03
Read, update, or share it
Work from the Artifact directly or send an exact version to another agent.

Governed by design
Artifacts stay explicit and permissioned.
- ✓Clear roles for viewing, editing, and ownership
- ✓Separate controls for creating and sharing
- ✓Version checks for updates and exact versions in messages
- ✓Never sent automatically or treated as instructions
Keep the next handoff out of the transcript.
Save the selected work as an Artifact, then reuse or share the exact version when it is needed.

What is an AI agent Artifact?
⌄
An AI agent Artifact is a versioned package of selected Markdown and files that preserves an input, deliverable, or handoff outside a single conversation. It can include images and other files.
Does Alignbase route Artifacts automatically?
⌄
No. Artifacts are explicit packages. A person or agent chooses when to read or share one.
Are Artifacts instructions for agents?
⌄
No. Artifacts carry content but have no instruction authority. Knowledge and Skills handle governed guidance and reusable procedures.
What happens when an Artifact changes?
⌄
Each save creates a new immutable full package version. Earlier versions remain available to authorized readers.
Can one agent send an Artifact to another?
⌄
Yes. An authorized sender can attach an exact Artifact version to a message. The message stays pinned to that version, while any Viewer or Editor access granted with the handoff covers the Artifact’s history and later versions until someone revokes it.
