1. Is this request related to a challenge you're experiencing?

Currently, when users click on citations within a discussion thread, the system fetches and displays the excerpted content of the relevant paragraphs from the referenced knowledge source.

2. Describe the feature you'd like to see

We would like to see a feature that, upon clicking a citation within a conversation, allows users to view the complete content of the original source document.

3. How will this feature improve your workflow or experience?

Full Access: Users can explore topics more deeply and holistically without leaving the platform or separately searching for the document.
Multimedia Preservation: Original documents often include valuable visual aids (e.g., images, diagrams) lost in extracted segments.
Contextual Completeness: Access to the entire document ensures users have all necessary information for accurate interpretation.

4. Additional context or comments

No response

5. Can you help us with this feature?
