AI-generated sections
An AI-generated section is a document block that an agent writes — and keeps up to date — under your control. Instead of pasting AI output into the doc, you insert a section, let the agent generate content into it, and approve the result before it becomes part of the document.
What they look like
An AI section renders with a visible frame showing its status:
Generated — the agent produced a draft; review is pending.
Needs review — content changed or a regeneration completed.
Approved — a human accepted this content.
Error — generation failed; retry from the block.
Creating one
Slash menu → AI-generated section (or ask an agent to add one).
Trigger generation with a prompt — e.g. "Summarize our refund policy from the linked docs."
The agent writes a candidate replacement for the section, with sources attached.
Reviewing candidates
The block shows the candidate side-by-side with current content.
Approve replaces the section with the candidate content (the document as it was before approval is kept in version history).
Reject discards the candidate; the section stays as-is.
Regenerate re-runs generation, optionally with an edited prompt.
Every candidate records its model, prompt, source references, and the agent run that produced it — provenance you can audit later.
How agents use them
Agents can author or refresh AI sections as part of larger runs — e.g. a docs-maintenance agent that updates "Known issues" in a release doc from recent support conversations. Each candidate lands in the same review flow, so agent output never silently edits a document.
Governance
Approval is always human: agents cannot approve their own sections.
All events (generate, approve, reject, regenerate) are logged with actor and agent run.
Combined with version history, every AI edit is traceable end-to-end.
