When Kagi Assistant generates a PDF, the download link provided is in the format sandbox:/filename.pdf. This is an internal-only path and cannot be opened in browsers like Safari, Chrome, or Firefox. Attempting to open it results in an “address is invalid” error. This prevents users from saving or using the generated PDF directly.
Users cannot access AI-generated PDFs without manually copying the content and recreating the file themselves.
This adds unnecessary steps and reduces the usefulness of generated documents (e.g., voter guides, research summaries, checklists).It affects all devices and browsers since sandbox:/ is not a public URL.
Replace sandbox:/ links with publicly accessible HTTPS download links.
Alternatively, provide an “Export” or “Email” option to send the file directly to the user.
Ensure generated files are stored temporarily on a secure server for direct download.
This feature would greatly improve usability for any AI-generated file output, including PDFs, images, and spreadsheets.
