Floater: the movable in-page Workbench button and compact action menu.
Sidebar: the in-page workspace containing Collect, prompts, pins, scratchpads, Enhance actions, and navigation.
Main extension page: the full-page interface for libraries, settings, account controls, and reports.

Prompt: reusable text that can contain variables.
Sequence: an ordered collection of prompt steps run one at a time.

Version: a preserved rerun or edited form of a turn.
Hidden conversation: removed from ordinary views but recoverable.
Deleted conversation: permanently removed after typed confirmation and synchronized as a tombstone; it cannot be restored under the old ID.

Local: stored in the current browser but not confirmed in the account cloud.
Pending: queued or waiting for synchronization.
Synced: the latest acknowledged account version is stored successfully.
Conflict: local and cloud versions require a supported resolution path.
