What do the Evidence Pool search, filters, roles, and Include visible buttons do?

Overview

Search and the document, code, metadata, and Show controls help you inspect a subset of the Evidence Pool. They do not by themselves remove evidence from AI or export. Include visible and Exclude visible change the inclusion status of the quotations currently shown after those filters are applied. Role and Researcher note let you record why a quotation is supporting, contradictory, negative, uncommon, uncertain, or otherwise analytically important.

What to do

1. Use filters to inspect one code, document, or subgroup at a time.
2. Use Include visible or Exclude visible only after confirming what the current filters show.
3. Mark a meaningful contradiction or boundary case with a role or researcher note rather than silently removing it.
4. Return to Show: All before deciding that the pool is balanced.
