A project is a shared workspace that bundles everything one piece of work needs — the chats, the reference files, the instructions, and the task board — 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 contact, 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), Tasks (the board), Knowledge (the project's files, in a folder tree), and Agents (the project's own task agents) — plus Automations once one is bound to the project, and Environment for project administrators. 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 chat'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.
