Checkpoints and Reverting

Multi automatically creates checkpoints during task execution, so you can move faster without worrying about getting stuck after a bad step.

Automatic Checkpoints

Multi saves checkpoints as tool calls run, so recovery is always close by
Checkpoints capture workspace state for reliable restore operations
You can inspect checkpoint diffs before undoing, which reduces accidental rollbacks

In the chat timeline, hover a message and click the Undo icon in the message actions.

You can undo from message history at any point by using Undo on a message, which is useful when a task drifts from the direction you wanted.

When confirmation opens, choose one of two scopes:

Chat + files - Revert chat history and file changes after that point for a full reset
Chat only - Revert chat history and keep current file changes when code is still useful

Use See changes in the confirmation dialog to preview what will be reverted.
