Example workflows

Starting points built from this record, not transcripts of a run. Each prompt is written the way it should be sent, as one paragraph, and each is worth editing before you send it.

1. 01

   Stand it up from scratch

   You have read the record and want Expanded Document Views working in a real project rather than a sandbox.

   Set up Expanded Document Views in this project — larger document previews in the Files tab. It is still in beta, so build the smallest version that proves it works, tell me exactly what you changed, and flag anything I have to switch on myself.

   Expected outcome

   A working setup, a plain list of what changed, and a short list of anything left for you to switch on. Check that list before assuming it is done.

2. 02

   Review it before you publish

   Expanded Document Views is wired in and you are about to put it in front of people. This is the pass that catches the half-configured version.

   Review how this project uses Expanded Document Views before I publish. Check improved document visualization and high fidelity display execution, list anything that is missing, misconfigured, or only half wired, fix what is safe to fix, and tell me what you left alone and why.

   Expected outcome

   A findings list split into what was fixed and what was left, with a reason for each. Anything left alone is yours to decide on.

3. 03

   Decide whether it fits your project

   Worth five minutes before you wire anything in. Expanded Document Views sits in Editor, and not every project needs it.

   I am building the project in this workspace. Given that Expanded Document Views larger document previews in the Files tab, tell me honestly whether it fits what I am building, including the cases where I should not use it. If it does fit, give me the single smallest first step.

   Expected outcome

   A direct yes or no with the reasoning, the cases against it, and one first step. Treat a hedged answer as a no.
