The graph is
a project-level view
you open from main navigation (sidebar). It’s not inside a specific file like a document or plotboard. The graph is
a view of the whole project from one level up.

​
What does the graph show?

The graph doesn’t show file content.
It visualizes connections between files. Graph screen example On this screen you can see:
  • Which files sit at the center of the structure
  • Which characters, documents, or plot pieces are strongly connected
  • Whether any files are unintentionally isolated
  • Whether connections are too concentrated in one area
The graph is
not for showing a polished result.
It’s the screen that shows
how this project is connected right now.

​
When to use the graph

  • When the structure feels complex
  • When you’re unsure what the center is
  • When you want to check balance of connections
Before opening more documents,
open the graph once.

​
How to read it

What matters on the graph is not “content” but
density and distribution of connections.
  • Many connections → center of the structure
  • Few or no connections → possibly isolated
  • Clusters in one area → possible overload
The graph is not a grading tool.
It’s for observation.

​
Summary

The graph is
  • not a workspace but a place to observe
  • showing connections, not file content
  • showing current state, not a final result
In Pensiv the graph asks
not “what did I write?” but
”how is it connected?”
