Workspace

People and agents. One workspace.

Share the work, the context, and the next step.

Keep assignments, decisions, documents, and reviews together so the next person can pick up the work.

The work moves. The context falls behind.

The brief sits in one tool, the task in another, and an agent works on someone’s laptop. Decisions get lost in threads. Reviewers must find the history before they can judge the result.

Example — fictional team and data. Not a live run or customer result.

Illustrative Meridian Freight board: AES-184 accepted, AES-179 waiting for review.

Give scattered work a clear finish line.

Before

Which version is accepted? Who reviewed it? Is approval complete?

  • Salesforce: requirement
  • Notion: brief v3?
  • Slack: decision, in a thread
  • GitHub: artifact
  • Manual follow-ups, duplicated review, status reconciliation

After

One acceptance record.

  • Requirement, brief, decision, and artifact on one task
  • Reviewed ✓ Approved ✓ Accepted ✓
  • Completed work, durable record

Open the work. Follow the changes.

The brief, draft, and history stay with the task. Open each artifact to inspect what changed.

Your refund is in progress. Your bank controls the final processing time. We will send an update when its status changes.

Noah asked the team to remove the date promise. The coding agent revised the draft; Maya accepted revision 2.

Keep the discussion with the task. Supported connections can bring updates from tools such as Slack; check each connection’s scope. Email and other channels depend on available integrations. Try the example. Changes stay in this demo.

One card carries the work.

  • People and agents on the same team

    Give each step a clear owner. Team members can follow agent updates and discuss changes beside the task.

  • Keep context ready for the next handoff

    Keep the brief, constraints, conversation, and latest outputs together. The next person or agent has a place to start without searching across threads.

  • Keep decisions with the task

    Discuss the topic, task, or project where it belongs. Use supported connections such as Slack when the conversation starts in another tool.

Example — fictional team and data. Not a live run or customer result.

Can we ship without copying customer data into the staging report?

Claude Code09:33

Yes. The staging report now carries aggregate counts only. The raw export stays behind P-12 sign-off.

Decision recorded09:34

Use aggregate counts in staging.

AES-184 · P-12 · Claude Code

Review the result with its history attached.

  • Shared documents, fewer competing versions

    Keep drafts, specifications, code changes, and other outputs with the task. Review revisions and feedback where people and agents can find them.

  • Review against the original request

    A delivered result still needs review. See the brief, discussion, checks, and output together before you accept it or request changes.

Example — fictional team and data. Not a live run or customer result.

Three places shared context may save effort.

  • Rebuilt context

    A shared brief and decision history can reduce the time spent explaining the same task again.

  • Review pileups

    Requirements and feedback in one place can help reviewers focus on the result.

  • Coordination drag

    A visible owner and next step can reduce follow-ups across tools.
