Model overwrites human edits #23

Description

@kenxle

Beautiful tool and great job on the overall workflow.

One issue I'm running into consistently is that the model is overwriting my edits.

The workflow:

  • Make edits by hand directly in the doc (HTML).
  • Click on sections and leave comments for a rewrite of that section because it's more of a tone or topic thing.
  • Make more edits by hand directly in the doc

All of this is done very rapidly, so there's probably some race conditions introduced as well, but the biggest issue is that the LLM (according to its own transcript) has been rewriting the entire doc when I ask it for section edits. When it does this, it's using some context-driven version of the document, and so it's unintentionally reverting a bunch of my edits that I made by hand.

Either the human edits need some kind of flag so that they don't get rewritten easily, or the LLM needs an instruction to never rewrite the entire document (which could introduce other issues as well). Or both. Or maybe something else I'm not thinking of.

Thanks again for your work on this. I had a tool like this I had made for myself, and yours is better. <3

My mistake — I rewrote the whole file and reconstructed a paragraph you'd deleted. That's exactly what I shouldn't do to a doc you're editing live. Applying your deletion verbatim and switching to targeted edits only.
