Assigning Work (Master · Employees · Projects)

Basic Rules for Work Instructions (Common)

The following rules apply to every chat — Master, project, or employee.

A plan comes first, then execution

When you assign work, the employee first shares a plan and then proceeds right away.

Tasks that can simply proceed: the plan is shown and executed immediately without confirmation.
Tasks that require a decision or choice: the employee asks back with option buttons — like "Is this the right direction?", "How far should I research?", "Which of the two should I go with?" — and proceeds after receiving your answer.
If real-world information that belongs in the deliverable (store names, prices, contact details, dates, etc.) is missing, the employee asks instead of making it up.

Tokens in the chat input box

Use special tokens in the input box to specify targets and tools. Selected tokens remain in the conversation and can be reused.

Token	Function	Example
`@name`	Mention (target) an employee	`@Researcher research the market size`
`/skill`	Specify a particular skill (methodology)	`/pptx create a quarterly results presentation`
`$plugin`	Specify a particular plugin or connector	`$excel organize the sales into a table`
File attachment	Attach images, documents, PDFs	Attach button (📎)

Typing @ / $ brings up an autocomplete list. Navigate with the keyboard arrow keys (including scrolling) and select with Enter. You can also search by letters in the middle of a name.

Context memory

Recent conversations (multiple messages) and the latest deliverable are kept as context. For example, if you say "change the background to a sunset" about an image you just created, that image is edited as a follow-up.

Long tasks are normal

Long missions like research → documentation are perfectly normal. Progress (plan, start, completion) is continuously shown in the chat. Even if your computer shuts down, unfinished tasks automatically resume on restart.

Copying results and giving feedback

Hover over a completed result message to reveal a Copy button and 👍/👎 feedback buttons.

Pressing 👎 opens a modal where you can leave specific feedback, which automatically improves that employee's skills, memory, and guidelines.

Instructing the Master (You)

Give instructions in the 👑 Me (Master) channel on the left side of the Messenger (or handle them directly as the Master in the Office Map). Use this when you want to handle something yourself (as the Master persona) instead of delegating it to a specific employee.

Examples

Organize today's top 3 tasks by priority → the Master organizes and replies.
Polish this idea into a single paragraph (paste your draft) → polished and returned immediately.
@Designer create 3 logo concepts → even in the Master channel, you can hand work off to a specific employee with an @mention.
If you have hired a Manager (lead) employee, giving a big instruction without a mention lets the Manager automatically distribute it across multiple employees (orchestration).

Instructing Employees · Handing Off Work

Select an employee in the Messenger to open a 1:1 chat with them (the employee's name and role appear at the top left).

Basic 1:1 instructions

Examples

Researcher: Research the size of the domestic EV market in 2025 and the market share of the top 3 brands. Show your sources.
Copywriter: Write 3 Instagram caption options for the new wireless earbuds. Keep the tone witty.
Designer: Create a minimal cafe logo. Use terracotta tones.

Handing off work to another employee (handoff)

@mention another employee in an employee chat, and that task is handed off to them.

Scenario

In the Researcher chat, assign market research → the Researcher delivers the findings.
Then say @Reviewer review this research and point out what to improve, and:
- the task moves to the Reviewer's chat, labeled "From Researcher", with the Researcher's findings passed along as reference.
When the Reviewer finishes, the result is automatically sent back to the Researcher's chat as "From Reviewer".

In other words, it reproduces work handoffs between people exactly: "hand from A to B, and when B finishes, it returns to A."

Instructing in Projects · Everyone Relay

Project chats keep the project memory as context while you instruct team members.

To a specific team member

@Marketer set the messaging direction for this campaign → that team member handles it within the project (the record stays in the project only).

Everyone relay instructions

Press @ in a project chat and "@Everyone" appears at the top of the list. Select it and give an instruction:

project members take turns in a relay, one at a time, and
each adds opinions and work from their own role's perspective on top of the previous colleague's result.

Example

@Everyone propose launch ideas for the new brunch cafe, each from your own role's perspective → Planner → Marketer → Designer → Copywriter… each perspective stacks up into a single combined result.

Note: unlike a "meeting (discussion)", the Everyone relay is a format where each employee actually adds work and opinions.

Team Meetings · All Channel

Meetings

Open a meeting from Menu > Meetings (or a team channel).

At "Would you like to open a meeting?", select 2 or more attending employees
Enter the meeting topic
Choose the number of turns (1–4 each) → the AI employees debate for the set number of turns and then summarize a conclusion.

Since the number of calls is fixed in advance, costs are predictable. You can open a meeting even without a Manager.

Example: Let's decide the pricing policy direction for the new product (attendees: Marketer, Data Analyst, Investment Expert — 2 turns each)

All channel

The All channel on the left side of the Messenger shows the conversation flow of the entire office. Instructions given here without an @mention are handled according to recent conversation and Manager rules.
