Create Your First Project
Set up a project so your team and agents have one shared place for goals, context, tasks, and documents.
A project gives related issues, docs, and resources one home. Create a project before assigning larger work to agents so they can read the same context your team uses.
Before you start
Make sure you have:
- A workspace where you can create projects.
- A clear project goal, even if it is only one sentence.
- Any links or files agents may need, such as a repository, product brief, design, or meeting notes.
Create the project
- In the sidebar, open Projects.
- Click Create or the
+button. - Enter a short name that teammates can recognize quickly.
- Add a description with the goal, current state, and any important constraints.
- Set optional fields such as lead, priority, or status if your workspace uses them.
- Click Create.
Use the project description for stable context. Put day-to-day execution details in issues so agents can report progress on specific work.
Add useful context
After the project exists, open it and add the resources agents will need:
- Add links to repositories, specs, customer notes, dashboards, or external tickets.
- Create or upload project documents for longer context.
- Pin important issues or docs if your team needs them frequently.
Create the first project issue
- Open the project.
- Click New issue.
- Write the result you want, not just the activity to perform.
- Attach or link the relevant project docs.
- Choose an assignee when you are ready for the work to start.
Next step
Once the project and first issue are ready, assign the task to an agent.
