Revert and Edit Messages
GAEditorReleased Nov 2025All plansSource: docs.lovable.dev
Revert and Edit Messages is Lovable's Editor feature: Roll back to any prior message or edit and re-run.
Restore is now Revert — jump back to any earlier point in a conversation, edit the prompt, and re-run from that state without losing later context.
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.
Stand it up from scratch
You have read the record and want Revert and Edit Messages working in a real project rather than a sandbox.
Set up Revert and Edit Messages in this project — roll back to any prior message or edit and re-run. Walk it end to end, tell me exactly what you changed, and flag anything I have to switch on myself before it works.
Expected outcomeA 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.
Recover from a wrong agent decision
The record lists this as one of the jobs Revert and Edit Messages is meant for, so it is a fair first test of whether it fits your app.
In this project, use Revert and Edit Messages for recover from a wrong agent decision. Build the smallest version that a real user could complete end to end, keep the change scoped to that path, and tell me how to test it myself.
Expected outcomeOne complete path a user can walk, the files and settings that changed, and the steps to test it. Walk it yourself before you ship it.
Review it before you publish
Revert and Edit Messages 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 Revert and Edit Messages before I publish. Check revert to any message and edit prompts in place, 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 outcomeA findings list split into what was fixed and what was left, with a reason for each. Anything left alone is yours to decide on.
Try alternate prompts from the same baseline
A second job the record lists for Revert and Edit Messages, useful once the first path works.
Extend this project so Revert and Edit Messages also covers try alternate prompts from the same baseline. Reuse what is already wired rather than adding a parallel setup, and tell me what you reused and what is new.
Expected outcomeA second path built on the same setup, plus a note on what was shared and what was added.
