Projects

A project is a shared workspace that bundles chats, files, instructions, tasks, and discussions around one piece of work. This overview maps the project tabs and points to the page that goes deeper on each.

A project is a shared workspace that bundles everything one piece of work needs — the chats, the reference files, the instructions, the task board, and the discussions — so the context follows the work instead of being re-pasted into every chat. Where a single chat answers one question, a project is where a team keeps a customer, a launch, or a long-running investigation moving.

The parts of a project

Every project opens on the same tab strip: General (name, description, sharing, and recent chats), Chats (your chats in the project plus the ones shared with it), Discussions (threaded topics for the whole team), Tasks (the board, with a Metrics view), Instructions (context that applies to every chat in the project), Knowledge (the project's files, in a folder tree), Agents & models (which agents and models members see here), and Secrets. Apps installed into the project add their own tabs after these.

Where this fits

Projects sit beside Chat in the sidebar, and the handover is natural: a question starts in Chat, turns out to be bigger than one chat, and moves into a project — the composer's Move to project… action carries an existing chat across. If you are new to projects, start with Project concepts for the model, then walk Use projects end to end on a fresh one.
