Replay: governed replay chain

Replay is the workspace-level surface at /dashboard/<workspaceId>/replay that shows the latest governed replay chain — the full evidence trail correlating a builder mission with its delivery, runtime, and evidence outputs. Use Replay to audit what happened after the fact, prove a decision, or reconstruct the chain Sidekick followed.

What Replay is#

Replay is the post-hoc audit surface for a mission. While Studio shows what's happening live, Replay shows what did happen — the governed chain correlating a builder mission with every delivery step, runtime session, and evidence record it produced.

Open at /dashboard/<workspaceId>/replay to see the latest replay chain for the workspace.

What's in a replay chain#

LayerWhat it shows
MissionThe intent that started the work
DeliveryThe plan, dispatch, and orchestration that turned intent into action
RuntimeThe sessions that actually ran — model calls, tool calls, results
EvidenceThe artifacts and approvals produced along the way

Together these form a single chain you can step through, share, or export.

Empty state#

A workspace with no missions yet shows an empty state. Replay populates as soon as a builder mission has a correlated delivery, runtime, or evidence chain — usually after the first real Sidekick run.

Replay vs Evidence Vault#

Evidence Vault is the full searchable archive across all missions. Replay is the focused, time-ordered view of a single chain. Use Evidence Vault to find something; use Replay to follow what happened end-to-end.

Governance#

Every action in the replay chain is signed and tamper-evident — see Traces and evidence for the underlying contract. Members and above can view; export and download are role-gated.

info Sidekick's autonomy policy determines what writes are recorded — every gated approval, budget check, and tool-call decision lands in the chain.
