 Saved views and filters apply to Timeline, List and Capacity. To look at one initiative or one person's work, select it and click **Show only this initiative** or **Show Avery's work** on its card, or press **Z** (double-clicking an initiative does the same). It shows as a chip above the chart, such as **Initiative: Search** or **Person: Avery**; show an initiative and a person together to see that person's work in it. Click a chip to take it off, or **Show all work** to clear every filter. The browser's Back button undoes each of these. A person's work is the tasks and Jira stories assigned to them, plus initiatives they lead. Showing a person takes the place of any people you picked in Filters, and showing an initiative takes the place of any initiatives you picked; your other filters still apply, and the zoom stays as it was. If none of what's shown is in the dates on screen, a line under the chips says when it is, and **Go to it** scrolls there; if nothing matches at all, it says so. Chips are your own view in this browser and never go in the plan; links carry them. To look at several initiatives at once, pick them under **Filters > Initiatives**. Each shows with everything inside it and the initiatives that hold it, plus the milestones done when a shown initiative is. Gates are hidden while you're picking. Roadmap and Status update use the whole plan and say so. Your filters remain available when you return to Timeline.
 
-To see one item with everything tied to it, select an initiative, task, milestone or gate and click **Show linked work** on its card, or choose **Show only what's linked to the selection** in Find. It shows the item, everything it waits for all the way back and everything that waits on it all the way on, but not work that only shares a prerequisite with it. An initiative brings what's inside it, and a task brings the initiatives that hold it. The Timeline switches to **Fit** so all of it is on screen, and the late count says it covers the whole plan. A **Linked to** chip above the chart says what it's linked to; take it off, or press Back, to see everything again at the zoom you had. It changes nothing in the plan, and the List shows the same work. While linked work is shown, select another item and click **Add to linked work** (or use Find) to see what's linked to it too, up to 5 picks; each has its own chip, and **Remove from linked work** on a pick's card takes just that one off. To keep everything on screen instead, click **Highlight instead** next to the chips: what isn't linked is dimmed, and still works when you hover, click or tab to it. **Hide the rest** switches back, Back undoes either, and taking the last chip off ends it. With an item selected, a dashed outline marks what it's directly linked to; the Key says so. On a narrow window with the details panel open, a long span can be wider than the chart even at **Fit**, because weeks keep a minimum width; scroll sideways, or close the panel, to see the rest.

 To see what a milestone is waiting on, select it: **What leads here** on its card lists the work it waits for, all the way back, but nothing that waits on it. It names what finishes last and when, then the rest, latest finish first, with each item's date, status and owner. Work finishing after the milestone's date is marked, and so are dates that come from Jira's sprints. A milestone that's done when its initiatives finish takes its date from them, and the card says so. Click an item to open it; nothing in the list changes the plan. To see all of it on the Timeline, click **Show on the Timeline**: it shows the milestone and only what leads to it, with a **Leading to** chip above the chart.

-**Find** (/ or Ctrl+K) also runs actions by name: type "days", "start editing", "rows by person" or "show only" and press Enter. Each action shows its shortcut, and only actions that apply right now are offered, so what's selected and whether you're editing decide what you see. Press **?** for every shortcut. Find reveals a matching milestone, gate or note through the Timeline's filters, folded rows and hidden layers. **Restore previous view** returns to the view you had before opening the result. Filter controls retain keyboard focus when the view updates, and status messages remain visible on narrow screens.
+**Stars** get you back to anything fast. Select an item and press **,** (comma), or click the star at the top of its details, to star it; do it again to unstar it. Initiatives, tasks, Jira stories, milestones, gates, meetings, notes, people, workstreams, releases, process blocks and deliverables can be starred, up to 24 per plan. Your stars are listed under **Starred** in the menu (the first five, then **Show all**) and near the top of Find when you open it with nothing typed (right after a few actions for what you've selected): press **/**, then Enter or the arrow keys. Going to a star shows it even if your filters or Show settings hid it, and **Back to where I was** (in the menu and above the chart) then puts everything back: the page, filters, what's hidden or folded, zoom, selection and scroll. A Jira item keeps its star by its key, wherever it's shown (a story, a task or an initiative); when it can't be found the star says why (Jira isn't loaded, not in the last sync, or not on this plan's chart) and stays until you unstar it. Stars are yours alone: kept in this browser for this plan, never in the plan file, so nobody else sees them.
+
+**Copy** at the top of an item's details copies a link to it (**Link**) or a reference to paste into any assistant (**For your assistant**, or **With its details**); **Ctrl+C** does the same when no text is selected. See [Ask about one item](assistant-workflow.md#analyze-with-any-assistant).
+
+**Find** (/ or Ctrl+K) with nothing typed starts with what fits where you are: **For** the item you've selected, up to five of its most used actions, such as star it, copy it for your assistant, write an update or copy a link to it, with the rest one **>** away; then **Starred**; then **Recent**, the last 8 items you opened, newest first, without what's starred or selected; then **On this page**, the actions for the page you're on. The selection is taken when Find opens, so if it changes before you pick an action, the action does nothing and says so. Recent is yours alone, kept in this browser for this plan; Back and Forward don't add to it, and "clear recent" in Find forgets it. Start what you type with **>** to see only actions, for example "> zoom".
+
+**Find** (/ or Ctrl+K) also runs actions by name: type "days", "start editing", "rows by person" or "show only" and press Enter. Each action shows its shortcut, and only actions that apply right now are offered, so what's selected and whether you're editing decide what you see. Press **?** for every shortcut. Before you open a result, Find says when your view doesn't show it as it is: **Outside your filter**, **Outside linked work**, **Folded row**, **Dimmed: not linked** or **Not on Timeline**. Opening it changes the view to show it, in one step: it unfolds rows, shows hidden kinds and layers and switches the zoom where needed, and for an initiative or task a filter hides, it clears your filters (for a milestone or gate, only the filters that hide it). A strip above the chart says so, and the note at the bottom of the window offers the same way back for a few seconds. **Back to where I was** in that strip, or one press of the browser's **Back**, puts everything back as it was: a linked chain you were looking at, the filters, folds, zoom, selection and scroll. Searching again from there still goes back to where you started, and **Keep this view** stays where you are. Back and Forward between these steps show each one as it was. Starred and Recent results in Find are marked the same way. Going to a person or workstream, or to something already on screen, changes nothing else and isn't something to go back from. Filter controls retain keyboard focus when the view updates, and status messages remain visible on narrow screens.
 
 **J** and **K** move to the next or previous item in the view you're in. On the Timeline and the List they select it, so its details open beside it; on Today, Sprint, Capacity and the Roadmap they move keyboard focus, and **Enter** opens it. Once you're on a row there, the **Up** and **Down** arrows do the same. In People load, **Enter** on a person opens their card. On the Plan pages with a table (Milestones, Gates, Decisions and Risks) they step through its rows, and **Enter** puts the cursor in the row's first field; on Cards they step through the cards (press **M** on one to move it). At either end they stay put and say so. On a Mac, the keyboard help, Find and the toolbar's tooltips show ⌘, ⇧ and ⌥ where other computers show Ctrl, Shift and Alt.
