Part 3 of the Conversational Document Editing arc — see docs/design/vision-conversational-editing.md. Depends on object addressability (Part 1) and grounding (Part 2).
Goal
The AI proposes patches, not overwrites. Every change is a reviewable, revisioned, auditable operation with a diff the human accepts, rejects, or edits — then the conversation continues.
Surface
document.apply_patch(), document.diff(), plus insert / delete_range / replace / move.- Accept/reject diff-preview UI in
scrybe-app.
- Revision model on top of
ContentAddressable (BLAKE3 + CBOR) + scrybe-vcs (git2).
Design notes (vision doc)
- Structural ops (e.g. "split Figure 3 → 3A/3B + update references") modeled as patches — open question whether one atomic patch or a sequenced transaction (§6).
- Diff transport rides
cli-rpc's dispatch_with_reply, which already round-trips an operation into the live editor and back.
- Patches map onto content-addressed revisions → "revision +1, versionable, auditable" comes largely from foundations that already exist.
Depends on
Acceptance
- Agent edits arrive as patches with a previewable diff; human can accept / reject / edit.
- Each accepted patch bumps a content-addressed revision; history is auditable.
- No blind full-document overwrites on the conversational editing path.
Milestone: ~v0.9–v0.10.
