# Docs

Docs is the user's filesystem-first document library. Documents can live on
the primary machine or another connected host, but the `room-cli docs` command
handles that routing through named vaults.

## Access documents

Start with the smallest useful lookup:

```sh
room-cli docs vaults --json
room-cli docs list --vault <vault-id> --json
room-cli docs read <path> --vault <vault-id>
```

Use the path and vault exactly as returned. Paths are relative to the vault;
do not guess an absolute host path or inspect the vault outside `room-cli docs`.

## Docs @-mentions

A Docs mention resolves at send time and appears in agent context as a
`Docs document (<vault>/<path>)` block. Treat that block as user-provided
source material from their document library:

- Read and use its current contents even if the prompt only says “this” or
  “the attached doc.”
- Preserve its meaning and distinguish its claims from your own inference.
- Do not rewrite the mentioned document unless the user asks you to change it.
- When your answer refers the user back to it, emit a Docs directive rather
  than an opaque filesystem path.

## Create and update documents

Docs is a good destination for durable plans, specifications, write-ups, and
HTML artifacts the user should be able to reopen.

```sh
room-cli docs pull plans/release-plan.md --vault personal --into ./docs-work
# Edit ./docs-work/plans/release-plan.md with normal file tools.
room-cli docs status ./docs-work --diff
room-cli docs push ./docs-work
```

`room-cli docs status` exits 0 when no changes exist. It exits 4 when it finds
changes that the output describes. Exit 4 is a successful status result.
Review that output, then run `room-cli docs push` as a separate command. Do not
connect the status and push commands with `&&`.

Pull a folder subtree with `--folder`, or the whole selected vault with
`--all`:

```sh
room-cli docs pull plans --folder --vault personal --into ./docs-work
room-cli docs pull --all --vault personal --into ./docs-work
```

Always edit the pulled files with ordinary workspace tools, then run `status`
before `push`. The manifest in `.bb-docs-state.json` records stable vault paths
and remote SHA-256 versions; do not edit it. Pull and push fail closed when both
the local and vault copies changed. Resolve the content manually, then pull or
push again. `push --dry-run --diff` previews without writing.

Local file and empty-directory deletions are ignored by default. Only use
`push --delete` when the user explicitly asked to delete the corresponding
vault paths. A pulled folder root is intentionally retained; pull its parent or
the whole vault to remove that folder. Binary assets round-trip with their
original bytes. If state is malformed, preserve the directory for recovery and
pull into a new clean `--into` directory.

The direct `write`, `mkdir`, `move`, and `remove` commands are deprecated. Do
not use them for agent edits; they remain temporarily available only for
backward compatibility.

Use Markdown for documents and plans. Use a self-contained `.html` file for a
visual artifact or interactive report; relative assets can live beside it.
Only write into Docs when the user asks to create, save, store, or update
something there.

## Link documents in responses

Emit this leaf directive on its own line:

```md
::docs{vault="personal" path="plans/release-plan.md" title="Release plan"}
```

`vault` and `path` are required. Include a short human-readable `title` when
known. The rendered card opens an editable, autosaving document in the thread
side panel; its secondary action opens the full Docs editor. Use the directive for both
Markdown documents and full HTML artifacts.
