Images
Images shows every image file stored in the project’s .neova/images/ folder, and where each one is used. Use it to find and remove images that nothing uses any more.
Open it from Sidebar › Project › Images.
Images land in this folder when you or an agent add one to a task, a wiki page, a chat message, a notification, a question’s answer or an agent’s terminal, and when you upload an icon for a link.
Summary
Section titled “Summary”The top of the page shows the number of files and their total size. If some images are unused, it also shows how many, and how much space removing them frees, for example 12 unused · 4.2 MB reclaimable.
Toolbar
Section titled “Toolbar”| Control | What it does |
|---|---|

Image grid
Section titled “Image grid”Each tile shows a thumbnail, the file name, its size and how long ago it changed.

- Unused when nothing refers to it.
- Used in and the first place it is used, for example Used in Fix the login page. +2 means it is used in two more places. Hover over the line to see them all.
The places are named like this:
| Shown as | Where the image is used |
|---|---|
| The task title | A task, also an archived one. |
| Chat · 2026-10-01 | A chat message on that day. |
| Notification · 2026-10-01 | A notification or question on that day. |
| Project links | A link icon on Overview. |
| A file path | Another file in .neova/, such as a wiki page. |
Neova checks every text file in .neova/ for the image’s file name.
