How Spaces Work
A Space is the highest level in socra’s hierarchy. It contains all Projects, Issues, and members for a given team or initiative. Spaces have their own compiled memory and permission model.
The Hierarchy
Section titled “The Hierarchy”Space > Project > Module > Issue
Every item in socra belongs to exactly one Space. The Space provides the boundary for permissions, billing, and AI Teammate context.
Space Memory
Section titled “Space Memory”When Projects inside a Space compile memory from completed Issues, the compilation cascades upward to the Space level. The Space’s content area builds a strategic overview of all work across all Projects.
Permissions
Section titled “Permissions”- Each Space has an Owner (the creator).
- Members are assigned roles: Viewer, Commenter, Editor, Admin.
- Permissions apply to all content within the Space unless overridden at the item level via sharing.
- See How Permissions Work for inheritance details.
Privacy Levels
