Following and pinning Library clusters

Follow important clusters and add eligible messages, attachments, or connected objects.

Library groups related work automatically, but you can keep an important source attached to a cluster.

Add a source

Open the actions menu on a message or attachment and choose Add to Library. Connected Calendar, Drive, and X objects offer the same action from their Monad detail page.

The picker shows only clusters that can safely include the source. For example, a DM message cannot be pinned into a workspace-wide cluster. If no clusters are shown, wait for Library to compile an eligible cluster or open the source in its original audience.

Pinned sources remain attached while Library reorganizes related work. Removing a pin does not remove a source that Library also grouped into the cluster on its own. A pin never overrides permissions: removing access, revoking a shared connected object, or deleting a source removes an invalid pin automatically. When Library splits a cluster, eligible pinned sources remain attached to the resulting child clusters even if Library cannot compare that source by meaning.

Share or revoke a connected object

Personal Calendar, Drive, and X objects begin as Only you. To make one eligible for workspace clusters:

  1. Open the object from a Library citation or connected-object result.
  2. Choose Share to workspace.
  3. Optionally choose Add to Library and select an eligible workspace cluster.

Only that object is promoted; the rest of the personal connection stays private. The share is recorded in Library history and does not change permissions in the source service.

Choose Revoke share on the same detail page to return the object to Only you. Library removes workspace pins, memberships, search results, and compiled claims that depended on the shared copy, then refreshes the affected clusters. Gmail objects are always Only you and never offer a sharing action.

Follow or unfollow

Open a cluster and choose Follow. Choose it again to unfollow. Following is personal and does not change the cluster for anyone else. Library follows only when you choose Follow; being a contributor or frequently viewing related work does not follow a cluster automatically. If you lose the last permission path to a cluster, Library removes that follow.

Review changes

The cluster history records automated renames, merges, dormancy changes, and manual governance actions. When a change can still be restored, an authorized manager can choose Undo. Library preserves valid pins and citations, records the undo as a new history entry, and refreshes the document.
