Practical guidance for local exports, Pro controls, and recovery.

Keep artifacts and choose whether to include thinking

Export code and files Claude created in its side panel, while keeping long reasoning optional.

Step by step

How to do it

  1. 1

    Leave Include artifacts on when you need code, documents, or files Claude generated alongside the response.

  2. 2

    Turn on Include thinking only when the reasoning itself is useful to the reader; it can make a document much longer.

  3. 3

    Export a short test copy when you are changing these choices for an important archive.
