# Review suggestions and restore revisions

Every assistant edit waits for your decision, and earlier chapter versions remain available.

## Recognize a suggested edit

Inserted and removed text stays marked until you accept or reject it. The chapter shows **Suggestions to review**, Contents shows a count, and the assistant pane offers a review card. Ordinary editing is read-only while those changes are unresolved.

Colour reinforces the difference between inserted and removed text, but the review controls and accessible labels carry the same meaning.

## Decide one change at a time

Use **Previous** and **Next** to move through changes, then **Accept** or **Reject** the selected suggestion. This is useful when an edit fixes one sentence but changes another you want to keep.

## Decide the whole chapter

**Accept all** keeps the assistant’s version; **Reject all** returns to the version the edit started from. Resolving the final suggestion lets the chapter save normally again.

## Restore an earlier revision

Revision history saves the current chapter first, so restoring an older version does not destroy the one you have. Open **Revision history** from the Contents footer or **More**, choose a version, select **Restore**, and confirm.

Each revision says what made it: **Manual edit** for your own saves, **AI** for the assistant's changes, **Pasted** when you paste or drop a paragraph or more into the chapter, and **Restore**. Chapbook keeps the latest 50 revisions of each chapter, and reads them to show [how much of the book you wrote by hand](/manual/launch-and-export/#answer-kdps-ai-question).

## Resolve a conflict

**This chapter changed elsewhere** means another saved revision won the race. Compare **My version** with **Saved version** in the dialog. **Keep my version** saves your changes; **Use the saved version** discards the unsaved draft. Copy passages you want from either version before choosing. Chapbook does not automatically merge competing edits.
