Work

Shared tasks — the long-horizon spine for effort that outlives a single chat.

Work

Work is how persistent, shareable effort lives in Onnie. Chat stays private and live; a Task is the workspace-visible spine — goal, current focus, plan, digests, deliverables, and activity — that many humans and agents can share.

Open the Work rail for an attention-ordered list. Click a task to open the continuity panel (Focus → Plan → Deliverables → Activity → Chats).

How to use it

  1. Scan the browser — buckets: Needs you · Active · Scheduled & waiting · Recently done. Filter All or Me.
  2. Open a task — edit focus and goal, run the agent Live (your bound chat) or Ghost (background / autonomous).
  3. Follow digests and deliverables — curated progress and linked pages / tables / canvases / images, not the full chat transcript.
  4. Resolve blockers from Activity (and Needs you) when the agent waits on you.
  5. Start from a Blueprint when you want structured multi-step Work instead of a blank task.

Mental model

Chat
Where the agent runs

Private transcript. Bound to a task when work is tracked — chat keeps going (bind, not freeze).

Task
What the room shares

Goal, focus, plan steps, digests, deliverables, comments. The spine you re-enter days later.

Key distinctions

  • Work is not a Kanban/Gantt dashboard. Multi-week planning lives on Calendar (Timeline).
  • Lead user/agent are defaults and labels — not hard gates on who can help.
  • Autonomous / scheduled runs use ghost chats (view from the task; not in your private Chats list).
