Overview

Pieces Timeline is your central workspace in the Pieces Desktop App for accessing all workflow context captured by the Long-Term Memory (LTM-2.7) Engine. Timeline displays a chronological view of your workflow events, including timeline events, single-click summaries, and conversational searches.

All events are organized chronologically from most recent at the top to oldest at the bottom, grouped by day. Each day section can be expanded or collapsed by clicking on it or using the caret icon. You can scroll through your timeline, filter events by type or source, and click any event to view its full content in the main view.

What's in Your Timeline

Pieces Timeline displays three main types of events:

  • Timeline Events — Workflow moments captured by LTM-2.7, including code changes, document edits, and other activities from your connected applications. Timeline Events also include automatically generated summaries that capture your work patterns, such as Day Recap, Morning Brief, Week Recap, and What's Top of Mind.

  • Single-Click Summaries — Summaries you generate on demand by clicking summary cards on the homepage, including Standup Update, Custom Summary, AI Habits, and more.

  • Conversational Searches — Chat conversations you have with your memories. Each conversation appears as an event in Pieces Timeline, allowing you to revisit past conversations and their context.
