The Documents panel is the project’s file system. Every document you upload, every Review you complete, every Discovery you finish: they all show up here, in a folder tree you can organise the way you’d organise files on disk.

Chat tops out at 25 attached docs per turn; past that, use Discovery. The panel takes 1,000 per project.

Using documents

Type @ in any chat input and pick a document; it’s now part of the chat’s context. Libra cites the document in answers.
From the Review section or directly from chat: pick the document, pick a template, run.
Click Add Documents in any Discovery and pick from the project tree.
When editing an Assistant, attach project documents to its knowledge base. The Assistant references them when responding.
Click any document to preview it in the document viewer. The download button is in the preview toolbar. See File types & previews for what each format looks like.

Sharing documents

Tips for keeping a tidy panel

The first day of a matter is when folder structure decisions cost the least. Decide on Inbound documents, Drafts, Signed versions, Reviews, Discoveries, then keep moving files into the right buckets as they arrive.
The default Review and Discovery folders work for low volume. As soon as you have several of either, organise them by document type or matter phase.
Document names show up in Search. “Acme, Employment Contract, Maria Schneider, signed.pdf” is much more useful than “contract_v3.pdf”.
Old drafts of contracts you’ve since signed don’t need to clutter the panel, but consider archiving the project rather than deleting individual files. Archived projects keep everything.
