      All framework bindings share the controlled-component contract. The host owns content, persistence, permissions, and lifecycle; editors report state changes through typed properties and events.

      Real-time collaboration

      The collaboration protocol covers all five editors and all three framework bindings. Browsers use Yjs and native agents use Yrs. The host owns rooms, identity, authorization, providers, offline buffering, and persistence.

      What's new on main (0.296.0)

      Live collaboration Spreadsheet formulas stay agent-usable:

      • Formula writes without cached "v" / "m" fail closed with an in-process suggestion.
      • MCP schema and office_collaboration_mutate state the collab formula contract.
      • Agents stay off recalculate-spreadsheet-formulas on collaboration replicas.
