# Where are the files and visuals my agent creates?

Open **Assets** at the bottom of a quadrant or in the Brain to see items saved to that library. You can preview them, organise them and make selected items available in other local libraries.

## Before you start

Choose the intended project or Brain. Its Assets library is not the same as the Video module's media list or the **Data Library** in settings. A file on disk is not necessarily registered as an Asset.

## Find and organise an item

1. Click **Assets**, then select an item to preview it.
2. Use **Find** to search and the sort menu for **Recent**, **Name** or **Starred first**.
3. Open the item's **More** menu for **Pin to top**, **Star**, **Edit tags…**, **Add to group…** or **Rename**.
4. Use **Archive** to hide an item. Expand **Archived** and choose **Restore** to bring it back.

**Delete** asks for confirmation and cannot be undone through the library. Archive is the safer choice when you only want less clutter.

## What does sharing mean?

**Share to every library** makes an item available across Codus libraries on this computer. It does not publish a public internet link or upload it as a cloud backup. **Make private to this library** limits its library visibility again.

Assets and **DevTools** use the same drawer area. Opening one can close the other; Codus asks about unsaved editor changes rather than silently discarding them.

## How do I know it worked?

The item appears under the intended library and opens in the preview. A pin, star, tag or group is visible after the change. For important deliverables, also confirm where the actual file is saved.
