Findings are where you keep what you learn: a security observation with a title, severity, the affected endpoint and method, evidence and a fix. They need an account and live under **Findings** in the sidebar.

## Create a finding

- From chat: **save as Finding** on an answer.
- From Code Lab: promote a snippet to a finding. See [Code Lab](https://documentation.redorca.ai/guides/red-team/fix-advisor-and-code-lab/).
- By hand, in Findings.

Findings are **private by default**: only you can see them.

## Share and publish

- **Share** creates a read-only link to one finding. Anyone with the link can read it; nobody can change it.
- **Publish** puts a finding on the community feed, where every signed-in user can read it. You can make it private again at any time; it disappears from everyone's feed immediately and stays in your own list.
- On the feed, published findings show their author's public nickname — "User 7" until you choose one in **Settings** — never your email address.
- Reading someone's published finding, you can reuse it: that starts a new chat in your own workspace, seeded with the finding.

## Reports

**Add to Report** marks the findings that belong in a report. See [Findings and reports](https://documentation.redorca.ai/guides/red-team/findings-and-reports/) for writing findings that stand up.
