Comments and feedback
Every document has a comment thread behind the Comments button on its header, and every space has its own discussion for talking about the place rather than a single file. Type @ and a name in a comment to mention someone; it reaches their Notifications.
A comment on a document can be pinned to a passage or image: select the text, and your comment points at it. The highlight is drawn over the document; the document itself is never changed.
Comments are for signed-in members of the workspace, any role. Someone holding a share link is anonymous, so they see the document but not the discussion.
Your assistant can read the comments (read_comments), revise the document based on them, and post a note saying what it changed. Pinned comments include the passage they point at, so "this number is wrong" is actionable.
To find a comment, Chat lists every comment across the workspace, with filters (see "Chat — conversations in the workspace").
