# How to view inline annotations

The Stepsize inline annotation indicates that there is an issue attached to a snippet of code, file or folder.

The inline annotation appears automatically whenever an issue is linked to a code snippet or file. This happens when any collaborator...

1. creates an issue linked to code in their code editor
2. uses `[stepsize]` syntax to create an issue from a `diff` in a PR

None of your code goes into the Stepsize cloud. The Stepsize integrations have been designed with privacy in mind. [See our Information Security Guide](https://storage.googleapis.com/stepsize-assets/Stepsize%20Information%20Security.pdf) for more detail.
