 # Rool SDK
 
-The TypeScript SDK for Rool, a persistent and collaborative environment for organizing objects.
+TypeScript SDK for Rool, a persistent collaborative workspace for objects, AI-assisted editing, and per-space files.
 
-> **Building a new Rool extension?** Start with [`@rool-dev/extension`](/extension/) — it handles hosting, dev server, and gives you a reactive Svelte channel out of the box. This SDK is for advanced use cases: integrating Rool into an existing application, building Node.js scripts, or working outside the extension sandbox.
+Core primitives:
 
-The SDK manages authentication, real-time synchronization, and per-space file storage. Core primitives:
-
-- **Spaces** — Containers for objects, schema, metadata, channels, and files
-- **Channels** — Named contexts within a space. All object and AI operations go through a channel.
-- **Conversations** — Independent interaction histories within a channel.
-- **Objects** — Records addressed by a **location** path (`/space/<collection>/<basename>.json`). The body holds user-defined fields. References between objects are body fields whose values are location strings.
-- **AI operations** — Create, update, or query objects using natural language and `{{placeholders}}`
-- **File storage** — Every space has WebDAV file storage
+- **Spaces** — containers for objects, schema, metadata, channels, collaborators, and files.

-## Core Concepts
-
-### Spaces and Channels
-
-A **space** is a container that holds objects, schema, metadata, channels, and files. A **channel** is a named context within a space — it's the handle you use for all object and AI operations. Each channel contains one or more **conversations**, each with independent interaction history.
+async function main() {
+  const client = new RoolClient();
 
-There are two main handles:
-- **`RoolSpace`** — Live handle with SSE subscription for user management, link access, channel management, file storage, export, and channel lifecycle events. Extends `EventEmitter`.
-- **`RoolChannel`** — Full real-time handle for objects, AI prompts, schema, and undo/redo.
-
-```typescript
-// Open a space — live handle with SSE subscription
-const space = await client.openSpace('space-id');
-await space.addUser(userId, 'editor');
-await space.setLinkAccess('viewer');
-
-// React to channel changes in real-time
-space.on('channelCreated', (channel) => console.log('New channel:', channel.id));
-space.on('channelUpdated', (channel) => console.log('Updated:', channel.id));
-space.on('channelDeleted', (channelId) => console.log('Deleted:', channelId));
-
-// Open a channel for object and AI operations
-const channel = await space.openChannel('my-channel');
-await channel.prompt('Create some planets');
+  if (!(await client.initialize())) {
+    await client.login('My App');
+    // Browser auth redirects away. Run startup again after the auth callback.
+    return;
+  }
 
-// Open another channel on the same space
-const channel2 = await space.openChannel('research');
-await channel2.prompt('Analyze the data');  // Independent channel
+  const space = await client.createSpace('Solar System');
+  const channel = await space.openChannel('main');
 
-// Clean up — stops subscription and closes all open channels
-space.close();
-```
+  await channel.createCollection('body', [
+    { name: 'name', type: { kind: 'string' } },
+    { name: 'mass', type: { kind: 'string' } },
+    { name: 'radius', type: { kind: 'string' } },
+    { name: 'orbits', type: { kind: 'maybe', inner: { kind: 'ref' } } },
+  ]);
 
-The `channelId` is fixed when you open a channel and cannot be changed. To use a different channel, open a new one. Channels to the same space share the same objects and schema.
+  const { object: sun } = await channel.putObject('/space/body/sun.json', {
+    name: 'Sun',
+    mass: '1 solar mass',
+    radius: '696,340 km',
+  });
 
-**Channel ID constraints:**
-- 1–32 characters
-- Only alphanumeric characters, hyphens (`-`), and underscores (`_`)
+  const { object: earth } = await channel.putObject('/space/body/earth.json', {
+    name: 'Earth',
+    mass: '1 Earth mass',
+    radius: '6,371 km',
+    orbits: sun.path,
+  });
 
-### Conversations
+  const { message, objects } = await channel.prompt(
+    'Add the other planets in our solar system, each referencing the Sun.'
+  );
 
-A **conversation** is a named interaction history within a channel. By default, all operations use the `'default'` conversation — most apps never need to think about conversations at all.
+  console.log(message);
+  console.log(`Modified ${objects.length} objects`);
 
-For apps that need multiple independent interaction threads (e.g., a chat sidebar with multiple threads), use `channel.conversation()` to get a handle scoped to a specific conversation:
+  const loadedEarth = await channel.getObject(earth.path);
+  console.log(loadedEarth?.body.name);
 
-```typescript
-// Default conversation — most apps use this
-const space = await client.openSpace('space-id');
-const channel = await space.openChannel('main');
-await channel.prompt('Hello');  // Uses 'default' conversation
+  space.close();
+}
 
-// Conversation handle — for multi-thread UIs
-const thread = channel.conversation('thread-42');
-await thread.prompt('Hello');  // Uses 'thread-42' conversation
-thread.getInteractions();      // Interactions for thread-42 only
+void main();
 ```
 
-Each conversation has its own interaction history and optional system instruction. Conversations are auto-created on first interaction — no explicit create step needed. The 200-interaction cap applies per conversation. All conversations share one SSE connection per channel.
-
-```typescript
-// System instructions are per-conversation
-const thread = channel.conversation('research');
-await thread.setSystemInstruction('Respond in haiku');
-
-// List all conversations in this channel
-const conversations = channel.getConversations();
-
-// Delete a conversation (cannot delete 'default')
-await channel.deleteConversation('old-thread');
+## Paths and Resource URIs
 
-// Rename a conversation
-await thread.rename('Research Thread');
-```
+Most SDK methods take plain path strings:
 
-### Branching Conversations
+- Object paths: `/space/<collection>/<name>.json` (exactly three segments; no dotfile collection or object names)
+- File paths: `/rool-drive/<path/to/file>`
 
-The conversation history is a **tree**, not a flat list. Each interaction has a `parentId` pointing to the interaction it continues from. When you call `prompt()`, the SDK automatically continues from the current active leaf. To branch (edit/reroll), pass a different `parentInteractionId`:
+`rool-machine:/...` URIs are the user-facing/canonical form for resource references in prompt attachments and interaction history. The exported helpers normalize between these forms when you need them.
 
 ```typescript
-const thread = channel.conversation('chat');
+import { machinePath, machineUri, isObjectPath } from '@rool-dev/sdk';
 
-// Normal conversation — each prompt auto-continues from the last
-await thread.prompt('My favorite color is blue. Say OK.');
-await thread.prompt('What is my favorite color?');  // Sees "blue"
+machinePath('rool-machine:/rool-drive/docs/read%20me.md');
+// '/rool-drive/docs/read me.md'
 
-// Branch: go back to the first message and say something different
-const firstLeaf = thread.activeLeafId;  // ID of the "blue" interaction
-const tree = thread.getTree();
-const firstInteractionId = tree[firstLeaf!].parentId!;  // The root
+machineUri('/space/article/welcome.json');
+// 'rool-machine:/space/article/welcome.json'
 
-await thread.prompt('My favorite color is red. Say OK.', {
-  parentInteractionId: firstInteractionId,  // Sibling of "blue"
-});
-await thread.prompt('What is my favorite color?');  // Sees "red", not "blue"
-
-// Switch back to the blue branch
-thread.setActiveLeaf(firstLeaf!);
-thread.getInteractions();  // Returns the blue branch (root → leaf)
+isObjectPath('/space/article/welcome.json'); // true
 ```
 
-**Key concepts:**
-- `getInteractions()` returns the active branch as a flat `Interaction[]` (root → leaf)
-- `getTree()` returns the full `Record<string, Interaction>` for branch navigation UI
-- `activeLeafId` is the tip of the branch the user is currently viewing
-- `setActiveLeaf(id)` switches branches (emits `conversationUpdated` so reactive UIs refresh)
-- `prompt()` with no `parentInteractionId` auto-continues from `activeLeafId`
-- `prompt()` with `parentInteractionId: null` starts a new root-level branch
-
-### Objects, Locations, and References
-
-Every object lives at a **location** — a path of the form `/space/<collection>/<basename>.json`. The collection is the parent directory, the basename is the filename without `.json`, and together they fully identify the object.
+Object APIs require full object paths. References between objects are ordinary body fields containing object paths:
 
 ```typescript
 {
-  location: '/space/article/welcome.json',
-  collection: 'article',
-  basename: 'welcome',
-  body: { title: 'Hello World', status: 'draft' },
-}
-```
-
-The **body** holds the user-defined data.
-
-**References** between objects are body fields whose values are location strings:
-
-```typescript
-// A planet references a star
-{
-  location: '/space/body/earth.json',
-  collection: 'body',
-  basename: 'earth',
+  path: '/space/body/earth.json',
   body: { name: 'Earth', orbits: '/space/body/sun.json' },
 }
-
-// An array of references
-{
-  location: '/space/team/alpha.json',
-  collection: 'team',
-  basename: 'alpha',
-  body: {
-    name: 'Alpha',
-    members: [
-      '/space/user/alice.json',
-      '/space/user/bob.json',
-      '/space/user/carol.json',
-    ],
-  },
-}
 ```
 
-References are just data — no special API is needed to create or remove them. Set a field to a location string to create a reference; clear it to remove it.
-
-#### Location helpers
-
-```typescript
-import { loc, parseLocation, normalizeLocation, generateBasename } from '@rool-dev/sdk';
-
-loc('article', 'welcome');                  // '/space/article/welcome.json'
-parseLocation('/space/article/welcome.json'); // { collection: 'article', basename: 'welcome' }
-
-// normalizeLocation accepts canonical or short form and returns canonical
-normalizeLocation('article/welcome');         // '/space/article/welcome.json'
-normalizeLocation('/space/article/welcome.json'); // unchanged
-
-// 6-char random basename — same generator the SDK uses by default
-generateBasename();                           // e.g., 'X7kQ9p'
-```
+## Authentication
 
-SDK methods that accept a location (`getObject`, `updateObject`, `deleteObjects`, `moveObject`, etc.) accept either form and normalize internally. SDK return values always use the canonical full form.
+### Browser
 
-#### Machine resource links
+The default auth provider stores tokens in browser storage and redirects to the Rool auth page.
 
 ```typescript
-import { resolveMachineResource } from '@rool-dev/sdk';
-
-const objectResource = resolveMachineResource('/space/article/welcome.json');
-// { kind: 'object', path: '/space/article/welcome.json' }
-
-const fileResource = resolveMachineResource('/rool-drive/docs/readme.md');
-// { kind: 'file', path: '/rool-drive/docs/readme.md' }
-```
+async function start() {
+  const client = new RoolClient();
 
-`rool-machine:` is the canonical URI scheme for user-visible resources from the Rool machine filesystem. `resolveMachineResource()` accepts either canonical `rool-machine:/...` URIs or bare machine paths such as `/rool-drive/...`, and returns the resource kind plus machine path. Fetch file resources through `space.fetchMachineResource(resource)`.
-
-### AI Placeholder Pattern
-
-Use `{{description}}` in body field values to have AI generate content:
-
-```typescript
-// Create with AI-generated content
-await channel.createObject('article', {
-  headline: '{{catchy headline about coffee}}',
-  body: '{{informative paragraph}}',
-});
+  if (!(await client.initialize())) {
+    await client.login('My App');
+    // Browser auth redirects; stop startup until the callback reloads the app.
+    return;
+  }
 
-// Update existing content with AI
-await channel.updateObject('/space/article/welcome.json', {
-  prompt: 'Make the body shorter and more casual'
-});
+  // Use the authenticated client here.
+}
 
-// Add new AI-generated field to existing object
-await channel.updateObject('/space/article/welcome.json', {
-  data: { summary: '{{one-sentence summary}}' }
-});
+void start();
 ```
 
-When resolving placeholders, the agent has access to the full body and the surrounding space context (except for `_`-prefixed fields). Placeholders are instructions, not templates, and do not need to repeat information already present in other fields.
-
-Placeholders are resolved by the AI during the mutation and replaced with concrete values. The `{{...}}` syntax is never stored — it only guides the agent while creating or updating the object.
-
-### Checkpoints & Undo/Redo
+### Node.js
 
-Undo/redo works on **checkpoints**, not individual operations. Call `checkpoint()` before making changes to create a restore point. Each checkpoint stores a snapshot of the entire space.
+Use the Node auth provider for CLIs and scripts. It stores endpoint-scoped credentials under `~/.config/rool/` by default (for example, `credentials-<hash>.json`) and opens a browser for login.
 
 ```typescript
-// Create a checkpoint before user action
-await channel.checkpoint('Delete object');
-await channel.deleteObjects([location]);
+import { RoolClient } from '@rool-dev/sdk';
+import { NodeAuthProvider } from '@rool-dev/sdk/node';
 
-// User can now undo back to the checkpoint
-if (await channel.canUndo()) {
-  await channel.undo(); // Restores the deleted object
-}
+const client = new RoolClient({ authProvider: new NodeAuthProvider() });
+let authenticated = await client.initialize();
 
-// Redo reapplies the undone action
-if (await channel.canRedo()) {
-  await channel.redo(); // Deletes the object again
+if (!authenticated) {
+  await client.login('My CLI Tool');
+  // Re-run initialize after the non-redirect login to hydrate currentUser,
+  // user storage, and client-level event subscriptions.
+  authenticated = await client.initialize();
 }
-```
-
-Checkpoints are **space-wide**: one shared stack across all channels and users. `undo()` restores the entire space — including any work others did since the checkpoint. Stacks are capped at 25 entries; identical-content checkpoints are deduped; a new checkpoint clears the redo stack.
 
-### Hidden Fields
-
-Body fields starting with `_` (e.g., `_ui`, `_cache`) are hidden from AI and ignored by the schema — you can add them to any object regardless of its collection definition. Otherwise they behave like normal fields: they sync in real-time, persist to the server, support undo/redo, and are visible to all users of the space. Use them for UI state, positions, or other data the AI shouldn't see or modify:
-
-```typescript
-await channel.createObject('article', {
-  title: 'My Article',
-  author: 'John Doe',
-  _ui: { x: 100, y: 200, collapsed: false }
-});
+if (!authenticated) throw new Error('Login required');
 ```
 
-### Real-time Sync
-
-Events fire for both local and remote changes. The `source` field indicates origin:
-
-- `local_user` — This client made the change
-- `remote_user` — Another user/client made the change
-- `remote_agent` — AI agent made the change
-- `system` — Resync after error
+### Auth API
 
-```typescript
-// All UI updates happen in one place, regardless of change source
-channel.on('objectUpdated', ({ location, object, source }) => {
-  renderObject(location, object);
-  if (source === 'remote_agent') {
-    doLayout(); // AI might have added content
-  }
-});
-
-// Caller just makes the change - event handler does the UI work
-channel.updateObject(location, { prompt: 'expand this' });
-```
+| Method | Description |
+| --- | --- |
+| `initialize(): Promise<boolean>` | Call on startup. Initializes auth, refreshes user/storage state, and starts client events when authenticated. |
+| `login(appName, params?): Promise<void>` | Start login flow. |
+| `signup(appName, params?): Promise<void>` | Start signup flow. |
+| `verify(token): Promise<boolean>` | Complete email verification token flow; returns `false` when the active auth provider does not implement verification. |
+| `logout(): void` | Clear auth state and close open spaces. |
+| `isAuthenticated(): Promise<boolean>` | Validate current auth state. |
+| `getAuthUser(): AuthUser` | Return auth identity decoded from the token. |
+| `setPassword(password): Promise<void>` | Set/change password for the current user. |
 
-### Locations & Basenames
+## Spaces and Channels
 
-By default, `createObject` mints a 6-character alphanumeric basename. Provide your own via `options.basename` for meaningful identifiers:
+Open a space to receive live events and manage collaborators, file storage, and channels. Open a channel to work with objects, schema, metadata, and AI.
 
 ```typescript
-await channel.createObject('article',
-  { title: 'The Meaning of Life' },
-  { basename: 'meaning-of-life' },
-);
-// → location: /space/article/meaning-of-life.json
-```
+const space = await client.openSpace('space-id');
 
-**Why pin a basename?**
-- **Fire-and-forget creation** — Know the location immediately without awaiting the response.
-- **Meaningful identifiers** — Use domain-specific names like `welcome` or `2026-budget` for easier debugging and external references.
+space.on('channelCreated', (channel) => console.log(channel.id));
+space.on('filesChanged', () => console.log('files changed'));
 
-```typescript
-// Fire-and-forget: create and reference without waiting
-const basename = RoolClient.generateBasename();
-const location = loc('note', basename);
-
-channel.createObject('note', { text: '{{expand this idea}}' }, { basename });
-channel.updateObject(parentLocation, {
-  data: { notes: [...existingNotes, location] },
-}); // Add reference immediately
+const channel = await space.openChannel('main');
+await channel.prompt('Summarize this space');
 ```
 
-**Basename constraints:**
-- Must start with an alphanumeric character.
-- Other characters may be alphanumeric, hyphens (`-`), or underscores (`_`).
-- Must be unique within its collection (throws if the location already exists).
-
-Use `moveObject` to rename an object or move it to a different collection — see [Moving and Renaming](#moving-and-renaming).
-
-## Authentication
+Channel IDs must be 1–32 characters and contain only letters, numbers, `_`, and `-`.
 
-### Browser (Default)
+## Object Operations
 
-No configuration needed. Uses localStorage for tokens, redirects to login page.
+Objects are JSON files under `/space`. Create the collection before writing objects in it.
 
 ```typescript
-const client = new RoolClient();
-const authenticated = await client.initialize();
-
-if (!authenticated) {
-  client.login('My App'); // Redirect to the auth page
-}
-```
+await channel.createCollection('article', [
+  { name: 'title', type: { kind: 'string' } },
+  { name: 'status', type: { kind: 'string' } },
+]);
 
-### Node.js
+// Create or replace an exact object path
+const { object } = await channel.putObject('/space/article/welcome.json', {
+  title: 'Welcome',
+  status: 'draft',
+});
 
-For CLI tools and scripts. Stores credentials in `~/.config/rool/`, opens browser for login.
+// Patch fields; null or undefined deletes a field
+await channel.patchObject(object.path, {
+  data: { status: 'published', obsoleteField: null },
+});
 
-```typescript
-import { NodeAuthProvider } from '@rool-dev/sdk/node';
+// Read one or many objects
+await channel.getObject('/space/article/welcome.json');
+await channel.getObjects([
+  '/space/article/welcome.json',
+  '/space/article/intro.json',
+]);
 
-const client = new RoolClient({ authProvider: new NodeAuthProvider() });
-const authenticated = await client.initialize();
+// Rename or move an object
+await channel.moveObject(
+  '/space/article/welcome.json',
+  '/space/article/hello-world.json'
+);
 
-if (!authenticated) {
-  await client.login('My CLI Tool'); // Opens browser, waits for callback
-}
+// Delete objects
+await channel.deleteObjects(['/space/article/hello-world.json']);
 ```
 
-### Auth Methods
-
 | Method | Description |
-|--------|-------------|
-| `initialize(): Promise<boolean>` | **Call on app startup.** Processes auth callback from URL, sets up token refresh, returns auth state. Returns `false` if not authenticated. Throws if authenticated but account fetch fails (e.g. network error or invalid token). |
-| `login(appName, params?): void` | Redirect to login page. The app name is displayed on the auth page ("Sign in to {appName}"). Optional `params` are added as query parameters to the auth URL. |
-| `signup(appName, params?): void` | Redirect to signup page. The app name is displayed on the auth page ("Sign up for {appName}"). Optional `params` are added as query parameters to the auth URL. |
-| `verify(token): Promise<boolean>` | Sign in using a verification token (from a `?verify=<token>` email link). Used by the official Rool app — most integrations won't need this. |
-| `logout(): void` | Clear tokens and state |
-| `isAuthenticated(): Promise<boolean>` | Check auth status (validates token) |
-| `getAuthUser(): AuthUser` | Get auth identity from JWT (`{ email, name }`) |
-| `setPassword(password): Promise<void>` | Set or change the current user's password. Requires an authenticated session. Password must be at least 8 characters and contain both letters and either digits or symbols. Throws with a human-readable message on validation or server failure. |
+| --- | --- |
+| `getObject(path): Promise<RoolObject | undefined>` | Fetch one object by object path. |
+| `getObjects(paths): Promise<GetObjectsResult>` | Fetch objects in bulk; returns `objects` and `missing`. |
+| `stat(path): RoolObjectStat | undefined` | Cached audit info for an object. |
+| `putObject(path, body): Promise<{ object, message }>` | Create or replace an object at an exact path. |
+| `patchObject(path, { data }): Promise<{ object, message }>` | Patch an object's body; `null`/`undefined` deletes fields. |
+| `moveObject(from, to, options?): Promise<{ object, message }>` | Rename or relocate an object; `options.body` can replace the body after moving. |
+| `deleteObjects(paths): Promise<void>` | Delete object files. |
 
 ## AI Agent
 
-The `prompt()` method is the primary way to invoke the AI agent. The agent has editor-level capabilities — it can create, modify, move, and delete objects — but cannot see or modify `_`-prefixed fields.
+`prompt()` invokes the AI agent. The agent can inspect space context and, unless `readOnly` or a read-only effort is used, create/modify/move/delete objects.
 
 ```typescript
 const { message, objects } = await channel.prompt(
-  "Create a topic node for the solar system, then child nodes for each planet."
+  'Create a topic node for the solar system, then child nodes for each planet.'
 );
-console.log(`AI: ${message}`);
-console.log(`Modified ${objects.length} objects:`, objects);
-```
 
-Use `checkpoint()` before prompting to make operations undoable.
-
-### Method Signature
-
-```typescript
-prompt(text: string, options?: PromptOptions): Promise<{ message: string; objects: RoolObject[] }>
+console.log(message);
+console.log(objects.map((object) => object.path));
 ```
 
-Returns a message (the AI's response) and the list of objects that were created or modified.
-
-### Options
+### Prompt Options
 
 | Option | Description |
-|--------|-------------|
-| `responseSchema` | Request structured JSON instead of text summary |
-| `effort` | Effort level: `'QUICK'`, `'STANDARD'` (default), `'REASONING'`, or `'RESEARCH'` |
-| `ephemeral` | If true, don't record in interaction history (useful for tab completion) |
-| `readOnly` | If true, disable mutation tools (create, update, move, delete). Use for questions. |
-| `parentInteractionId` | Parent interaction in the conversation tree. Omit to auto-continue from the active leaf. Pass `null` to start a new root-level branch. Pass a specific ID to branch from that point (edit/reroll). |
-| `attachments` | Machine resources to focus the AI on, plus local files to upload (`File`, `Blob`, or `{ data, contentType, filename? }`). Pass object resources (`/space/...`) for object context and file resources (`/rool-drive/...`) for existing WebDAV files/folders. Local files are uploaded to authenticated space file storage first. The interaction stores canonical `rool-machine:/...` refs for UI rendering. The AI can interpret images (JPEG, PNG, GIF, WebP, SVG), PDFs, text-based files (plain text, Markdown, CSV, HTML, XML, JSON), and DOCX documents. Other file types are stored but the AI cannot natively consume their contents, only use shell tools on them. |
-| `signal` | `AbortSignal` to stop the prompt mid-flight. When aborted, the agent loop halts and the streaming response closes. Note that any LLM turn already in flight on Vertex keeps generating server-side and is billed. |
-
-### Effort Levels
-
-| Level | Description |
-|-------|-------------|
-| `QUICK` | Fast, lightweight model. Best for simple questions. |
-| `STANDARD` | Default behavior with balanced capabilities. |
-| `REASONING` | Extended reasoning for complex tasks. |
-| `RESEARCH` | Most thorough mode with deep analysis. Slowest and most credit-intensive. |
-
-### Examples
-
-```typescript
-// Reorganize existing objects
-const { objects } = await channel.prompt(
-  "Group these notes by topic and create a parent node for each group."
-);
-
-// Work with specific objects
-const intro = resolveMachineResource('/space/article/intro.json');
-const conclusion = resolveMachineResource('/space/article/conclusion.json');
-if (!intro || !conclusion) throw new Error('invalid resource');
-const result = await channel.prompt(
-  "Summarize these articles",
-  { attachments: [intro, conclusion] }
-);
-
-// Quick question without mutations (fast model + read-only)
-const { message } = await channel.prompt(
-  "What topics are covered?",
-  { effort: 'QUICK', readOnly: true }
-);
-
-// Complex analysis with extended reasoning
-await channel.prompt(
-  "Analyze relationships and reorganize",
-  { effort: 'REASONING' }
-);
-
-// Attach existing WebDAV files/folders or local uploads
-const report = resolveMachineResource('/rool-drive/docs/report.pdf');
-if (!report) throw new Error('invalid resource');
-const file = fileInput.files[0]; // from <input type="file">
-await channel.prompt(
-  "Compare this report with the uploaded photo",
-  { attachments: [report, file] }
-);
-
-// Cancel a long-running prompt
-const ac = new AbortController();
-cancelButton.onclick = () => ac.abort();
-await channel.prompt("Do a deep analysis...", {
-  effort: 'RESEARCH',
-  signal: ac.signal,
+| --- | --- |
+| `responseSchema` | Request structured JSON text matching a JSON-schema-like shape. |
+| `effort` | `'QUICK'` (fast/read-only), `'STANDARD'` (default), `'REASONING'`, or `'RESEARCH'`. |
+| `ephemeral` | Do not record the prompt in interaction history. |
+| `readOnly` | Disable mutation tools. |
+| `parentInteractionId` | Conversation-tree parent. Omit to continue from the active leaf; pass `null` for a new root branch. |
+| `attachments` | Existing object/file paths or `rool-machine:/...` URIs, plus local files (`File`, `Blob`, or `{ data, contentType, filename? }`). |
+| `signal` | AbortSignal used to request that the server stop an in-flight prompt. |
+| `eventName` | Optional telemetry event name. Defaults to `'prompt_user'`. |
+
+```typescript
+// Read-only quick question
+await channel.prompt('What topics are covered?', {
+  effort: 'QUICK', // fast/read-only
 });
-```
-
-### Structured Responses
 
-Use `responseSchema` to get structured JSON instead of a text message:
+// Focus on existing objects and files
+await channel.prompt('Compare these resources', {
+  attachments: [
+    '/space/article/intro.json',
+    'rool-machine:/rool-drive/docs/report.pdf',
+  ],
+});
 
-```typescript
-const resources = [
-  '/space/item/widget.json',
-  '/space/item/gadget.json',
-  '/space/item/gizmo.json',
-].map((path) => {
-  const resource = resolveMachineResource(path);
-  if (!resource) throw new Error(`invalid resource: ${path}`);
-  return resource;
+// Upload a local file as an attachment
+await channel.prompt('Describe this image', {
+  attachments: [fileInput.files![0]],
 });
 
-const { message } = await channel.prompt("Categorize these items", {
-  attachments: resources,
+// Structured response
+const { message } = await channel.prompt('Categorize these items', {
   responseSchema: {
     type: 'object',
     properties: {
-      categories: {
-        type: 'array',
-        items: { type: 'string' }
-      },
-      summary: { type: 'string' }
-    }
-  }
+      categories: { type: 'array', items: { type: 'string' } },
+      summary: { type: 'string' },
+    },
+  },
 });
-
 const result = JSON.parse(message);
-console.log(result.categories, result.summary);
-```
-
-### Context Flow
 
-AI operations automatically receive context:
-- **Interaction history** — Previous interactions and their results from this channel
-- **Recently modified objects** — Objects created or changed recently
-- **Attached resources** — Object resources passed via `attachments` are given primary focus; file resources are surfaced as `/rool-drive/...` paths
-
-This context flows automatically — no configuration needed. The AI sees enough history to maintain coherent interactions while respecting the `_`-prefixed field hiding rules.
-
-## Collaboration
-
-### Adding Users to a Space
-
-To add a user to a space, you need their user ID. Use `searchUser()` to find them by email:
-
-```typescript
-// Find the user by email
-const user = await client.searchUser('colleague@example.com');
-if (!user) {
-  throw new Error('User not found');
-}
-
-// Add them to the space
-const space = await client.openSpace('space-id');
-await space.addUser(user.id, 'editor');
-```
-
-### Roles
-
-| Role | Capabilities |
-|------|--------------|
-| `owner` | Full control, can delete space and manage all users |
-| `admin` | All editor capabilities, plus can manage users (except other admins/owners) |
-| `editor` | Can create, modify, move, and delete objects |
-| `viewer` | Read-only access (can query with `prompt` and `findObjects`) |
-
-### Space Collaboration Methods
-
-These methods are available on `RoolSpace`:
-
-| Method | Description |
-|--------|-------------|
-| `listUsers(): Promise<SpaceMember[]>` | List users with access |
-| `addUser(userId, role): Promise<void>` | Add user to space (requires owner or admin role) |
-| `removeUser(userId): Promise<void>` | Remove user from space (requires owner or admin role) |
-| `setLinkAccess(linkAccess): Promise<void>` | Set URL sharing level (requires owner or admin role) |
-
-### URL Sharing
-
-Enable public URL access to allow anyone with the space URL to access it:
-
-```typescript
-const space = await client.openSpace('space-id');
-
-// Allow anyone with the URL to view
-await space.setLinkAccess('viewer');
-
-// Allow anyone with the URL to edit
-await space.setLinkAccess('editor');
-
-// Disable URL access (default)
-await space.setLinkAccess('none');
-
-// Check current setting
-console.log(space.linkAccess); // 'none' | 'viewer' | 'editor'
-```
-
-When a user accesses a space via URL, they're granted the corresponding role (`viewer` or `editor`) based on the space's `linkAccess` setting.
-
-### Client User Methods
-
-| Method | Description |
-|--------|-------------|
-| `currentUser: CurrentUser \| null` | Cached user profile from `initialize()`. Use for sync access to user info (id, email, name, etc.). Returns `null` before `initialize()` is called. |
-| `getCurrentUser(): Promise<CurrentUser>` | Fetch fresh user profile from server (id, email, name, photoUrl, slug, plan, creditsBalance, totalCreditsUsed, createdAt, lastActivity, processedAt, storage) |
-| `updateCurrentUser(input): Promise<CurrentUser>` | Update the current user's profile (`name`, `slug`). Returns the updated user. Slug must be 3–32 chars, start with a letter, and contain only lowercase alphanumeric characters, hyphens, and underscores. |
-| `deleteCurrentUser(): Promise<void>` | Mark the current user's account for deletion (10-minute grace period before irreversible). Logs out the client. |
-| `searchUser(email): Promise<UserResult \| null>` | Find user by exact email address (no partial matching) |
-
-### Real-time Collaboration
-
-When multiple users have a space open, changes sync in real-time. The `source` field in events tells you who made the change:
-
-```typescript
-channel.on('objectUpdated', ({ location, object, source }) => {
-  if (source === 'remote_user') {
-    // Another user made this change
-    showCollaboratorActivity(object);
-  }
+// Stop a long prompt with a signal (when the caller holds the controller)
+const ac = new AbortController();
+const promptPromise = channel.prompt('Do a deep analysis', {
+  effort: 'RESEARCH',
+  signal: ac.signal,
 });
+ac.abort(); // asks the server to stop the in-flight interaction
+await promptPromise;
 ```
 
-See [Real-time Sync](#real-time-sync) for more on event sources.
-
-## RoolClient API
+### Stopping interactions
 
-### Logging
-
-By default the SDK logs errors to the console. Pass a `logger` to see more or customize output:
+Use `signal` when the same call site cancels the prompt. When the Stop button
+lives elsewhere — a different component, after a reload, or a prompt another
+client started — stop by ID or stop the conversation's active interaction
+instead. Both are best-effort: the server halts the agent loop and closes the
+stream, but an LLM turn already in flight keeps generating server-side and is
+billed.
 
 ```typescript
-// Default — errors only
-const client = new RoolClient();
+// Stop whatever is in flight on this channel's (default) conversation.
+// No-op returning false when nothing is running.
+await channel.stop();
 
-// Log everything to console
-const client = new RoolClient({ logger: console });
+// Stop a specific interaction by ID (e.g. from channel.activeLeafId or
+// the interactions list). Returns whether the server stopped it.
+await channel.stopInteraction(channel.activeLeafId!);
 
-// Bring your own logger (pino, winston, etc.)
-const client = new RoolClient({
-  logger: myLogger // any object with { debug, info, warn, error }
-});
+// Conversation handles stop their own in-flight interaction.
+const thread = channel.conversation('thread-42');
+await thread.stop();
 ```
 
-### Space & Channel Lifecycle
-
-| Method | Description |
-|--------|-------------|
-| `listSpaces(): Promise<RoolSpaceInfo[]>` | List available spaces |
-| `openSpace(spaceId): Promise<RoolSpace>` | Open a space with live SSE subscription. Caches and reuses open spaces. Call `space.openChannel(channelId)` to get a channel. |
-| `createSpace(name): Promise<RoolSpace>` | Create a new space, returns live handle with SSE subscription |
-| `duplicateSpace(sourceSpaceId, name): Promise<RoolSpace>` | Duplicate an existing space. Returns a handle to the new space. |
-| `deleteSpace(id): Promise<void>` | Permanently delete a space (cannot be undone) |
-| `importArchive(name, archive): Promise<RoolSpace>` | Import from a zip archive, creating a new space |
-| `webdav(spaceId): RoolWebDAV` | Open a WebDAV client for a space's file storage |
-| `getSpaceStorageUsage(spaceId): Promise<SpaceFileStorageUsage>` | Get WebDAV quota usage for a space |
-
-### Channel Management
-
-Manage channels on the `RoolSpace` handle:
-
 | Method | Description |
-|--------|-------------|
-| `space.channels: ChannelInfo[]` | Live channel list (auto-updates via SSE) |
-| `space.getChannels(): ChannelInfo[]` | List channels (deprecated — use `space.channels` instead) |
-| `space.renameChannel(channelId, name): Promise<void>` | Rename a channel |
-| `space.deleteChannel(channelId): Promise<void>` | Delete a channel and its interaction history |
-| `channel.rename(name): Promise<void>` | Rename the current open channel |
+| --- | --- |
+| `stop(): Promise<boolean>` | Stop the in-flight interaction on the default conversation; `false` if none. |
+| `stopInteraction(id): Promise<boolean>` | Ask the server to stop a specific interaction by ID. |
+| `conversation.stop(): Promise<boolean>` | Stop a specific conversation's in-flight interaction. |
 
-### User Storage
+## Conversations
 
-Server-side key-value storage for user preferences, UI state, and other persistent data. Replaces browser localStorage with cross-device, server-synced storage.
-
-**Features:**
-- Fresh data fetched from server on `initialize()` — cache is authoritative after init
-- Sync reads from local cache (fast, no network round-trip)
-- Automatic sync to server and across tabs/devices via SSE
-- `userStorageChanged` event fires on all changes (local or remote)
-- Total storage limited to 10MB per user
-
-| Method | Description |
-|--------|-------------|
-| `getUserStorage<T>(key): T \| undefined` | Get a value (sync, from cache) |
-| `setUserStorage(key, value): void` | Set a value (updates cache, syncs to server) |
-| `getAllUserStorage(): Record<string, unknown>` | Get all stored data (sync, from cache) |
+Every channel has a default conversation. Use `channel.conversation(id)` for independent histories (for example, multiple chat threads). Conversations are represented as trees: interactions point at a `parentId`, and the SDK tracks an active leaf for each conversation.
 
 ```typescript
-// After initialize(), storage is fresh from server
-const authenticated = await client.initialize();
-
-// Sync reads are now trustworthy
-const theme = client.getUserStorage<string>('theme');
-applyTheme(theme ?? 'light');
+await channel.prompt('Hello'); // default conversation
 
-// Write - updates immediately, syncs to server in background
-client.setUserStorage('theme', 'dark');
-client.setUserStorage('sidebar', { collapsed: true, width: 280 });
+const thread = channel.conversation('thread-42');
+await thread.prompt('Hello from another thread');
+await thread.setSystemInstruction('Answer in haiku');
 
-// Delete a key
-client.setUserStorage('theme', null);
+const branch = thread.getInteractions(); // active branch, root → leaf
+const tree = thread.getTree();           // full interaction tree
 
-// Listen for changes from other tabs/devices
-client.on('userStorageChanged', ({ key, value, source }) => {
-  // source: 'local' (this client) or 'remote' (server/other client)
-  if (key === 'theme') applyTheme(value as string);
-});
+if (thread.activeLeafId) {
+  thread.setActiveLeaf(thread.activeLeafId);
+}
 ```
 
-### Extensions
-
-Manage and publish extensions. See [`@rool-dev/extension`](/extension/) for building extensions.
-
-There are two distinct domains: your **personal library** (extensions you've created or installed) and the **published extensions** (extensions discoverable by all users). Each has its own return type.
-
-#### Your Library (`ExtensionInfo`)
-
-Manage extensions you own. Each `ExtensionInfo` includes `published` (whether it's listed in the marketplace) and `marketplaceExtensionId` (non-null if you installed it from someone else's listing, null if you authored it).
-
-| Method | Description |
-|--------|-------------|
-| `uploadExtension(extensionId, options): Promise<ExtensionInfo>` | Upload or update an extension (`options.bundle`: zip with `index.html` and `manifest.json`) |
-| `listExtensions(): Promise<ExtensionInfo[]>` | List your extensions |
-| `getExtensionInfo(extensionId): Promise<ExtensionInfo \| null>` | Get info for a specific extension |
-| `deleteExtension(extensionId): Promise<void>` | Delete an extension permanently (removes files and DB row) |
-
-#### Marketplace (`PublishedExtensionInfo`)
-
-Discover and install extensions published by other users.
+| Method/property | Description |
+| --- | --- |
+| `channel.conversation(id): ConversationHandle` | Get a conversation-scoped handle. |
+| `getInteractions(): Interaction[]` | Active branch as a flat list. |
+| `getTree(): Record<string, Interaction>` | Full interaction tree. |
+| `activeLeafId` | Current branch tip. |
+| `setActiveLeaf(id): void` | Switch branches. |
+| `getSystemInstruction()` / `setSystemInstruction(value)` | Manage conversation system instruction. Pass `null` to clear. |
+| `getConversations(): ConversationInfo[]` | List channel conversations (on `RoolChannel`). |
+| `deleteConversation(id): Promise<void>` | Delete a non-active conversation. |
+| `renameConversation(name): Promise<void>` | Rename the current/default conversation (on `RoolChannel`). |
+| `conversation.rename(name): Promise<void>` | Rename a specific conversation handle. |
 
-| Method | Description |
-|--------|-------------|
-| `findExtensions(options?): Promise<PublishedExtensionInfo[]>` | Search the marketplace. Options: `query` (semantic search string), `limit` (default 20, max 100). Omit `query` to browse all. |
-| `publishToPublic(extensionId): Promise<void>` | Publish one of your extensions to the marketplace |
-| `unpublishFromPublic(extensionId): Promise<void>` | Remove from the marketplace (keeps the extension in your library) |
+`ConversationHandle` also supports conversation-scoped `putObject`, `patchObject`, `moveObject`, `deleteObjects`, `prompt`, `stop`, collection-schema methods, and `setMetadata`.
 
-### Utilities
+## Schema and Metadata
 
-| Method | Description |
-|--------|-------------|
-| `RoolClient.generateBasename(): string` | Generate a 6-char alphanumeric basename for new object identities. |
-| `RoolClient.generateId(): string` | Same as `generateBasename()`; retained for callers minting non-object IDs (interactions, conversations, channels). |
-| `destroy(): void` | Clean up resources |
-
-### Client Events
+Collections define the schema visible to the AI agent. Hidden body fields whose names start with `_` are useful for app/UI state that should not be considered by AI.
 
 ```typescript
-client.on('authStateChanged', (authenticated: boolean) => void)
-client.on('spaceAdded', (space: RoolSpaceInfo) => void)      // Space created or access granted
-client.on('spaceRemoved', (spaceId: string) => void)         // Space deleted or access revoked
-client.on('spaceRenamed', (spaceId: string, newName: string) => void)
-client.on('channelCreated', (spaceId: string, channel: ChannelInfo) => void)
-client.on('channelUpdated', (spaceId: string, channel: ChannelInfo) => void)
-client.on('channelDeleted', (spaceId: string, channelId: string) => void)
-client.on('userStorageChanged', ({ key, value, source }: UserStorageChangedEvent) => void)
-client.on('connectionStateChanged', (state: 'connected' | 'disconnected' | 'reconnecting') => void)
-client.on('error', (error: Error, context?: string) => void)
-```
-
-Channel events on the client (`channelCreated`, `channelUpdated`, `channelDeleted`) are pass-throughs from space events for backwards compatibility. Prefer listening on the space handle directly for new code.
-
-**Space list management pattern:**
-```typescript
-const spaces = new Map<string, RoolSpaceInfo>();
-
-client.on('spaceAdded', (space) => spaces.set(space.id, space));
-client.on('spaceRemoved', (id) => spaces.delete(id));
-client.on('spaceRenamed', (id, name) => {
-  const space = spaces.get(id);
-  if (space) spaces.set(id, { ...space, name });
+await channel.createCollection('article', {
+  schemaOrgType: 'Article',
+  fields: [
+    { name: 'title', type: { kind: 'string' } },
+    { name: 'status', type: { kind: 'enum', values: ['draft', 'published'] } },
+    { name: 'tags', type: { kind: 'array', inner: { kind: 'string' } } },
+    { name: 'author', type: { kind: 'ref' } },
+  ],
 });
-```
-
-## RoolSpace API
 
-A space handle with a live SSE subscription. Extends `EventEmitter`. Manages user access, link sharing, channels, file storage, and export. The `channels` property auto-updates via SSE, and channel lifecycle events fire in real-time.
-
-`openSpace()` caches and reuses open spaces — calling it twice with the same ID returns the same instance. Call `close()` when done to stop the subscription and close all open channels.
-
-### Properties

-| `id: string` | Space ID |
-| `name: string` | Space name |
-| `role: RoolUserRole` | User's role |
-| `linkAccess: LinkAccess` | URL sharing level |
-| `memberCount: number` | Number of users with access to the space |
-| `channels: ChannelInfo[]` | Live channel list (auto-updates via SSE) |
-| `webdav: RoolWebDAV` | WebDAV client for this space's file storage |

+  { name: 'status', type: { kind: 'string' } },
+]);
 
-```typescript
-space.on('channelCreated', (channel: ChannelInfo) => void)   // New channel added
-space.on('channelUpdated', (channel: ChannelInfo) => void)   // Channel metadata changed (name, extension, manifest)
-space.on('channelDeleted', (channelId: string) => void)      // Channel removed

+channel.setMetadata('viewport', { x: 0, y: 0, zoom: 1 });
+const viewport = channel.getMetadata('viewport');
 ```
 
-## RoolChannel API
-
-A channel is a named context within a space. All object operations, AI prompts, and real-time sync go through a channel. The `channelId` is fixed at open time — to use a different channel, open a new one.
-
-### Properties
-
-| Property | Description |
-|----------|-------------|
-| `id: string` | Space ID |
-| `name: string` | Space name |
-| `role: RoolUserRole` | User's role (`'owner' \| 'admin' \| 'editor' \| 'viewer'`) |
-| `linkAccess: LinkAccess` | URL sharing level (`'none' \| 'viewer' \| 'editor'`) |
-| `userId: string` | Current user's ID |
-| `channelId: string` | Channel ID (read-only, fixed at open time) |
-| `isReadOnly: boolean` | True if viewer role |
-| `extensionUrl: string \| null` | URL of the installed extension, or null if this is a plain channel |
-| `extensionId: string \| null` | ID of the installed extension, or null if this is a plain channel |
-| `manifest: ExtensionManifest \| null` | Extension manifest snapshot (name, icon, collections, etc.), or null |
-
-### Lifecycle
-
 | Method | Description |
-|--------|-------------|
-| `close(): void` | Clean up resources and stop receiving updates |
-| `rename(name): Promise<void>` | Rename this channel |
-| `conversation(conversationId): ConversationHandle` | Get a handle scoped to a specific conversation (see [Conversations](#conversations)) |
-
-### Object Operations
-
-Objects are records addressed by location (`/space/<collection>/<basename>.json`). Every object must belong to a collection — create the collection first (see [Collection Schema](#collection-schema)). The body holds the user-defined fields.
-
-All methods that accept a location accept either the canonical form or the short form (`collection/basename`).
-
-| Method | Description |
-|--------|-------------|
-| `getObject(location): Promise<RoolObject \| undefined>` | Get an object, or undefined if not found. |
-| `stat(location): RoolObjectStat \| undefined` | Get audit info for an object: when it was last modified, by whom, and where (channel/conversation/interaction). Sync read from local cache. |
-| `findObjects(options): Promise<{ objects, message }>` | Find objects using structured filters and/or natural language. Results sorted by modifiedAt (desc by default). |
-| `getObjectLocations(options?): string[]` | Get all object locations. Sorted by modifiedAt (desc by default). Options: `{ limit?, order? }`. |
-| `createObject(collection, body, options?): Promise<{ object, message }>` | Create a new object in `collection`. The SDK mints a random basename unless you pass `options.basename`. |
-| `updateObject(location, options): Promise<{ object, message }>` | Update an existing object's body. |
-| `moveObject(from, to, options?): Promise<{ object, message }>` | Rename or relocate an object. See [Moving and Renaming](#moving-and-renaming). |
-| `deleteObjects(locations): Promise<void>` | Delete objects by location. Other objects' refs become stale. |
-
-#### createObject
-
-```typescript
-// Auto-generated basename
-const { object } = await channel.createObject('article', {
-  title: 'Hello',
-  body: 'World',
-});
-// → object.location: '/space/article/X7kQ9p.json'
-
-// Pinned basename
-await channel.createObject('article',
-  { title: 'Welcome' },
-  { basename: 'welcome' },
-);
-// → location: '/space/article/welcome.json'
+| --- | --- |
+| `getSchema(): SpaceSchema` | Get collection definitions. |
+| `createCollection(name, fieldsOrDef, options?): Promise<CollectionDef>` | Create a collection. |
+| `alterCollection(name, fieldsOrDef, options?): Promise<CollectionDef>` | Replace a collection definition. |
+| `dropCollection(name): Promise<void>` | Remove a collection and its object directory. |
+| `setMetadata(key, value): void` | Set space metadata (fire-and-forget sync). |
+| `getMetadata(key): unknown` | Read metadata from local cache. |
+| `getAllMetadata(): Record<string, unknown>` | Read all metadata from local cache. |
 
-// AI placeholders
-await channel.createObject('article', {
-  headline: '{{catchy headline}}',
-  body: '{{long-form intro}}',
-});
-```
-
-| Option | Description |
-|--------|-------------|
-| `basename` | Specific basename to use. If omitted, the SDK generates a random 6-char one. |
-| `ephemeral` | If true, the operation won't be recorded in interaction history. |
-| `parentInteractionId` | Conversation tree parent. Omit to auto-continue; pass `null` for a new root. |
-
-#### updateObject
-
-```typescript
-// Add/update fields
-await channel.updateObject('/space/article/welcome.json', {
-  data: { status: 'published' },
-});
-
-// Delete a field (pass null)
-await channel.updateObject('/space/article/welcome.json', {
-  data: { draft: null },
-});
-
-// AI-driven rewrite
-await channel.updateObject('/space/article/welcome.json', {
-  prompt: 'Tighten the intro by 30%.',
-});
-```
-
-| Option | Description |
-|--------|-------------|
-| `data` | Body fields to add, update, or delete. `null` removes the field. Use `{{placeholder}}` for AI-generated content. Fields prefixed with `_` are hidden from AI. |
-| `prompt` | Natural language instruction for AI to modify content. |
-| `ephemeral` | If true, the operation won't be recorded in interaction history. |
-| `parentInteractionId` | Conversation tree parent. Omit to auto-continue; pass `null` for a new root. |
-
-Use `moveObject` to change an object's location (collection or basename).

-`moveObject` is how you rename an object (new basename in the same collection) or move it across collections. Pass `options.body` to atomically rewrite the body as part of the move.
-
-```typescript
-// Rename within the same collection
-await channel.moveObject(
-  '/space/article/welcome.json',
-  '/space/article/hello-world.json',
-);
-
-// Move into a different collection
-await channel.moveObject(
-  '/space/draft/post-42.json',
-  '/space/article/post-42.json',
-);
+Field kinds: `string`, `number`, `boolean`, `ref`, `enum`, `literal`, `array`, and `maybe`.
 
-// Move and replace body in one go
-await channel.moveObject(from, to, {
-  body: { title: 'Hello, world', status: 'published' },
-});
-```
-
-| Option | Description |
-|--------|-------------|
-| `body` | Replace the body atomically as part of the move. If omitted, the body is preserved. |
-| `ephemeral` | If true, the operation won't be recorded in interaction history. |
-| `parentInteractionId` | Conversation tree parent. Omit to auto-continue; pass `null` for a new root. |
+## Undo/Redo
 
-#### findObjects
-
-Find objects using structured filters and/or natural language.
-
-- **`where` only** — exact-match filtering, no AI, no credits.
-- **`collection` only** — filter by collection name, no AI, no credits.
-- **`prompt` only** — AI-powered semantic query over all objects.
-- **`where` + `prompt`** — `where` (and `locations`) narrow the data set first, then the AI queries within the constrained set.
-
-| Option | Description |
-|--------|-------------|
-| `where` | Exact-match body-field filter (e.g. `{ status: 'published' }`). Values must match literally — no operators or `{{placeholders}}`. When combined with `prompt`, constrains which objects the AI can see. |
-| `collection` | Filter by collection name. |
-| `prompt` | Natural language query. Triggers AI evaluation (uses credits). |
-| `limit` | Maximum number of results. |
-| `locations` | Scope to specific object locations. Constrains the candidate set in both structured and AI queries. |
-| `order` | Sort order by modifiedAt: `'asc'` or `'desc'` (default: `'desc'`). |
-| `ephemeral` | If true, the query won't be recorded in interaction history. Useful for responsive search. |
-
-**Examples:**
+Undo/redo uses checkpoints for the current channel ID. A checkpoint captures space state; call `checkpoint()` before a user action you want to make undoable.
 
 ```typescript
-// Filter by collection (no AI, no credits)
-const { objects } = await channel.findObjects({
-  collection: 'article'
-});
-
-// Exact field matching (no AI, no credits)
-const { objects } = await channel.findObjects({
-  where: { status: 'published' }
-});
-
-// Combine collection and field filters
-const { objects } = await channel.findObjects({
-  collection: 'article',
-  where: { status: 'published' }
-});
-
-// Pure natural language query (AI interprets)
-const { objects, message } = await channel.findObjects({
-  prompt: 'articles about space exploration published this year'
-});
+await channel.checkpoint('Delete article');
+await channel.deleteObjects(['/space/article/welcome.json']);
 
-// Combined: collection + where narrow the data, prompt queries within it
-const { objects } = await channel.findObjects({
-  collection: 'article',
-  prompt: 'that discuss climate solutions positively',
-  limit: 10
-});
+if (await channel.canUndo()) {
+  await channel.undo();
+}
 ```
 
-When `where` or `locations` are provided with a `prompt`, the AI only sees the filtered subset — not the full space. The returned `message` explains the query result.
-
-### Undo/Redo
-
-| Method | Description |
-|--------|-------------|
-| `checkpoint(label?): Promise<string>` | Call before mutations. Saves current state for undo. |
-| `canUndo(): Promise<boolean>` | Check if undo available |
-| `canRedo(): Promise<boolean>` | Check if redo available |
-| `undo(): Promise<boolean>` | Undo to previous checkpoint |
-| `redo(): Promise<boolean>` | Redo undone action |
-| `clearHistory(): Promise<void>` | Clear undo/redo stack |
-
-See [Checkpoints & Undo/Redo](#checkpoints--undoredo) for semantics.
-
-### Space Metadata
-
-Store arbitrary data alongside the space without it being part of an object's body (e.g., viewport state, user preferences).
-
 | Method | Description |
-|--------|-------------|
-| `setMetadata(key, value): void` | Set space-level metadata |
-| `getMetadata(key): unknown` | Get metadata value, or undefined if key not set |
-| `getAllMetadata(): Record<string, unknown>` | Get all metadata |
+| --- | --- |
+| `checkpoint(label?): Promise<string>` | Save current space state. |
+| `canUndo(): Promise<boolean>` | Check whether undo is available. |
+| `canRedo(): Promise<boolean>` | Check whether redo is available. |
+| `undo(): Promise<boolean>` | Restore the latest checkpoint. |
+| `redo(): Promise<boolean>` | Reapply undone work. |
+| `clearHistory(): Promise<void>` | Clear checkpoint history. |
 
-### Space File Storage
+Undo/redo availability and history are scoped to the channel handle (`channel.channelId`).
 
-Every space has authenticated file storage. WebDAV is the SDK surface for that storage: paths are relative to the space root and collection operations use WebDAV collection semantics. Human/AI file links use `rool-machine:/rool-drive/...`; resolve those links with `resolveMachineResource()` and fetch file resources with `space.fetchMachineResource(resource)`.
+## File Storage and WebDAV
 
-Use `client.webdav(spaceId)` when you only have an ID, or `space.webdav` when you already have an open space.
+Every space has authenticated WebDAV storage. WebDAV methods take SDK machine paths such as `/space/...`, `/rool-drive/...`, or `/` for the root collection.
 
 ```typescript
-import { resolveMachineResource } from '@rool-dev/sdk';
+const webdav = space.webdav;
 
-const webdav = client.webdav('space-id');
-
-await webdav.mkcol('docs');
-await webdav.put('docs/readme.md', '# Hello', {
+await webdav.mkcol('/rool-drive/docs');
+await webdav.put('/rool-drive/docs/readme.md', '# Hello', {
   contentType: 'text/markdown',
   ifNoneMatch: '*',
 });
 
-const listing = await webdav.propfind('docs/', {
+const listing = await webdav.propfind('/rool-drive/docs', {
   depth: '1',
   props: ['displayname', 'getcontentlength', 'getcontenttype', 'getetag'],
 });
 
-const file = await webdav.get('docs/readme.md');
-console.log(await file.text());
+const response = await webdav.get('/rool-drive/docs/readme.md');
+console.log(await response.text());
 
-const resource = resolveMachineResource('/rool-drive/docs/read me.md');
-if (!resource || resource.kind !== 'file') throw new Error('not a file');
-const sameFile = await space.fetchMachineResource(resource);
+const file = await space.fetchPath('/rool-drive/docs/readme.md');
+console.log(file.headers.get('Content-Type'));
 
 const usage = await space.getStorageUsage();
-console.log(usage.usedBytes);
-console.log(usage.availableBytes); // null means unlimited
-console.log(usage.limitBytes);     // null means unlimited
-
-const rootProps = await webdav.propfind('', {
-  depth: '0',
-  props: ['sync-token', 'supported-report-set'],
-});
-let syncToken = rootProps.responses[0]?.props.syncToken ?? null;
-
-space.on('filesChanged', async () => {
-  const delta = await space.webdav.syncCollection('', {
-    token: syncToken,
-    level: 'infinite',
-  });
-  syncToken = delta.token;
-  console.log('Changed file responses:', delta.responses);
-});
+console.log(usage.usedBytes, usage.availableBytes, usage.limitBytes);
 ```
 
-Paths are space-relative (`docs/readme.md`, not `/docs/readme.md`). WebDAV methods accept WebDAV paths only. User-facing file links should use `rool-machine:/rool-drive/...`; resolve either that URI or a bare `/rool-drive/...` machine path with `resolveMachineResource()` and fetch the resulting file resource with `space.fetchMachineResource(resource)`. `PUT` writes an exact path and does not create parent collections; create parents with `mkcol()` first. Helpers preserve WebDAV status semantics: non-success responses throw `WebDAVError` with `status`, `statusText`, and `body`.
+### Real-time file sync
 
-| Method | Description |
-|--------|-------------|
-| `client.webdav(spaceId)` | Create a WebDAV client for a space |
-| `client.getSpaceStorageUsage(spaceId)` | Get WebDAV quota usage for a space |
-| `space.webdav` | WebDAV client for an open space |
-| `space.getStorageUsage()` | Get WebDAV quota usage for an open space |
-| `webdav.getStorageUsage()` | Get WebDAV quota usage through the WebDAV client |
-| `webdav.path(path)` | Normalize a WebDAV path |
-| `webdav.propfind(path, options)` | Read properties/list collections; explicit `depth` required. Supports `sync-token` and `supported-report-set` props. |
-| `webdav.syncCollection(path, options)` | Reconcile WebDAV changes with `REPORT sync-collection`. Pass the previous `token` (or `null`), `level: '1' \| 'infinite'`, optional `props`/`limit`; returns changed responses plus the next `token`. |
-| `webdav.get(path, options?)` / `webdav.head(path)` | Read a file, including optional byte ranges for `get` |
-| `webdav.put(path, body, options?)` | Write an exact file path; parents must already exist |
-| `webdav.mkcol(path)` | Create one collection |
-| `webdav.copy(source, destination, options?)` | Copy a file or collection within the same space |
-| `webdav.move(source, destination, options?)` | Move a file or collection within the same space |
-| `webdav.delete(path, options?)` | Delete a file or collection |
-| `webdav.lock(path, options)` / `webdav.refreshLock(path, token)` / `webdav.unlock(token)` | WebDAV Class 2 write locks |
-| `webdav.request(method, path, init?)` | Raw authenticated WebDAV request escape hatch |
-
-> **Note**: `resolveMachineResource()` returns either a file resource or an object resource. File resources point at user-visible files in the space's WebDAV storage and can be fetched with `space.fetchMachineResource(resource)`. Object resources identify records inside the space. They're not interchangeable.
-
-#### File references from AI responses
-
-When an agent refers to a user-visible file, the SDK contract is `rool-machine:/rool-drive/path/to/file.ext`. That prefix makes a file reference unambiguous without exposing the authenticated WebDAV URL. In free text, ambiguous characters such as spaces are percent-encoded (`rool-machine:/rool-drive/docs/read%20me.md`).
+Object and file changes are announced at the space level. Use WebDAV `syncCollection()` to reconcile changes.
 
 ```typescript
-const resource = resolveMachineResource('rool-machine:/rool-drive/docs/readme.md');
-if (!resource || resource.kind !== 'file') throw new Error('not a file');
-const response = await space.fetchMachineResource(resource);
-const blob = await response.blob();
-img.src = URL.createObjectURL(blob);
-```
-
-Plain relative strings like `docs/readme.md` are valid WebDAV paths when you already know you are working with file storage. In user text or agent output, use `rool-machine:/rool-drive/docs/readme.md` so clients do not have to guess whether a string is a file.
+let token: string | null = null;
 
-### Proxied Fetch
-
-Fetch external URLs via the server, bypassing CORS restrictions. Requires editor role or above. Private/internal IP ranges are blocked (SSRF protection).
-
-| Method | Description |
-|--------|-------------|
-| `fetch(url, init?): Promise<Response>` | Fetch a URL via the server proxy. `init` accepts `method`, `headers`, and `body`. |
+async function syncFiles() {
+  const result = await space.webdav.syncCollection('/', {
+    token,
+    level: 'infinite',
+    props: ['displayname', 'getetag', 'getlastmodified', 'resourcetype'],
+  });
+  token = result.token;
+  updateFileTree(result.responses);
+}
 
-```typescript
-// GET request
-const response = await channel.fetch('https://api.example.com/data');
-const data = await response.json();
-
-// POST with headers and body
-const response = await channel.fetch('https://api.example.com/submit', {
-  method: 'POST',
-  headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
-  body: { key: 'value' },
+space.on('filesChanged', syncFiles);
+space.on('filesReset', () => {
+  token = null;
+  void syncFiles();
 });
-```
-
-### Collection Schema
 
-Collections are the types you use to group objects in a space. Every object belongs to exactly one collection: the collection is the parent directory of its location, and the server validates the object's body against that collection's definition. Renaming a collection changes the location of every object bound to it; dropping a collection is blocked while any object still lives there.
+await syncFiles();
+```
 
-Collections make up the schema and are stored in the space data, syncing in real time. The schema is visible to the AI agent so it knows which collections exist and what fields they contain, producing more consistent objects.
+| Method | Description |
+| --- | --- |
+| `webdav.href(path)` / `webdav.url(path)` | Return WebDAV href/URL for an absolute SDK path. |
+| `webdav.options(path)` | Send `OPTIONS`. |
+| `webdav.propfind(path, options)` | Read properties/list collections. `depth` is required. |
+| `webdav.syncCollection(path, options)` | WebDAV `REPORT sync-collection`; returns changed responses and next token. |
+| `webdav.get(path, options?)` / `webdav.head(path)` | Read a file; `get` supports byte ranges. |
+| `webdav.put(path, body, options?)` | Write a file/object at an exact path. Parent collection must exist. |
+| `webdav.mkcol(path)` | Create one collection. |
+| `webdav.copy(source, destination, options?)` | Copy a file or collection. |
+| `webdav.move(source, destination, options?)` | Move a file or collection. |
+| `webdav.delete(path, options?)` | Delete a file or collection. |
+| `webdav.lock(path, options)` / `refreshLock(path, token)` / `unlock(token)` | WebDAV write locks. |
+| `webdav.request(method, path, init?)` | Raw authenticated WebDAV request. |
+| `space.fetchPath(path, options?)` | Fetch a `/rool-drive/...` file path or `rool-machine:` file URI. |
+| `space.getStorageUsage()` / `webdav.getStorageUsage()` | Storage quota usage. |
+
+High-level WebDAV methods that validate response status throw `WebDAVError` with `status`, `statusText`, and `body`; raw `request()` and `options()` return `Response`.

+## RoolClient API
 
-| Method | Description |
-|--------|-------------|
-| `space.exportArchive(): Promise<Blob>` | Export objects, metadata, channels, and files as a zip archive |
-| `client.importArchive(name, archive): Promise<RoolSpace>` | Import from a zip archive, creating a new space |
+### Constructor config
 
-**Export:**
 ```typescript
-const space = await client.openSpace('space-id');
-const archive = await space.exportArchive();
-// Save as .zip file
-const url = URL.createObjectURL(archive);
+const client = new RoolClient({

-**Import:**
-```typescript
-const space = await client.importArchive('Imported Data', archiveBlob);
-const channel = await space.openChannel('main');
+`apiUrl` defaults to `https://api.rool.dev`; `authUrl` is derived by stripping the `api.` hostname prefix unless provided. `baseUrl` is still accepted as a deprecated alias for `apiUrl`. Pass `authProvider` for Node.js, Electron, or custom auth flows.

 ```
 
-### Error Handling
+`channel.fetch(url, init?)` proxies external HTTP requests through the server to bypass browser CORS.
 
-AI operations may fail due to rate limiting or other transient errors. Check `error.message` for user-friendly error text:
+## Import/Export
 
 ```typescript
-try {
-  await channel.updateObject(location, { prompt: 'expand this' });
-} catch (error) {
-  if (error.message.includes('temporarily unavailable')) {
-    showToast('Service busy, please try again in a moment');
-  } else {
-    showToast(error.message);
-  }
-}
+const archive = await space.exportArchive();
+const imported = await client.importArchive('Imported Data', archive);
 ```
 
-## Interaction History
-
-Each channel contains one or more conversations, each with its own interaction history. History is stored as a tree (interactions linked by `parentId`) in the space data and syncs in real-time. Capped at 200 interactions per conversation.
-
-### Conversation History Methods
-
-| Method | Description |
-|--------|-------------|
-| `getInteractions(): Interaction[]` | Get the active branch as a flat array (root → leaf) |
-| `getTree(): Record<string, Interaction>` | Get the full interaction tree for branch navigation |
-| `activeLeafId: string \| undefined` | The tip of the currently active branch |
-| `setActiveLeaf(id: string): void` | Switch to a different branch (emits `conversationUpdated`) |
-| `getSystemInstruction(): string \| undefined` | Get system instruction for the default conversation |
-| `setSystemInstruction(instruction): Promise<void>` | Set system instruction for the default conversation. Pass `null` to clear. |
-| `getConversations(): ConversationInfo[]` | List all conversations in this channel |
-| `deleteConversation(conversationId): Promise<void>` | Delete a conversation (cannot delete `'default'`) |
-| `renameConversation(name): Promise<void>` | Rename the default conversation |
-
-Channel management (listing, renaming, deleting channels) is done via the client — see [Channel Management](#channel-management).
-
-### The ai Field
-
-The `ai` field in interactions distinguishes AI-generated responses from synthetic confirmations:
-- `ai: true` — AI processed this operation (prompt, or createObject/updateObject with placeholders)
-- `ai: false` — System confirmation only (e.g., "Created object /space/note/welcome.json")
-
-### Tool Calls
-
-The `toolCalls` array captures what the AI agent did during execution. The `conversationUpdated` event fires when each tool starts and completes. A tool call with `status: 'running'` has no result; once `status: 'done'`, `result` contains the truncated result string.
+Archives include objects, metadata, channels/conversations, and file storage.
