How Projects Work
A Project is an organizational container for related Issues. Projects have their own content area and compiled memory. When child Issues complete, your AI Teammate synthesizes their results into the Project’s memory, building institutional knowledge over time.
The Project Hierarchy
Section titled “The Project Hierarchy”- Space > Project > Issue
- Projects can nest: Space > Project > Module > Issue
- Nested Projects at depth 2+ are called Modules.
- There is no hard limit on nesting depth, but most teams use 1-2 levels.
Memory Compilation
Section titled “Memory Compilation”When an Issue inside a Project is marked Complete:
- Your AI Teammate reads the completed Issue’s content and timeline.
- It compiles a summary into the Project’s content area.
- If the Project is inside another Project, the compilation cascades upward.
Knowledge flows upward through the hierarchy automatically. A Space’s memory reflects all the completed work across all its Projects.
Project Content vs Compiled Memory
Section titled “Project Content vs Compiled Memory”| Aspect | Content | Compiled Memory |
|---|---|---|
| Written by | You | AI Teammate |
| Updates when | You edit it | An Issue completes |
| Purpose | Planning, context, notes | Summary of completed work |
| Location | Content area | Content area (appended) |
