Give agents useful project context
Keep decisions, files and task conversations connected without pasting the whole project into every request.
Connect the right project
For an existing repository, choose the connected computer and working folder that contain it. A Cloud-hosted workspace does not automatically contain your local repository.
Describe the boundary
Name the relevant feature, files or documentation, the expected behavior and what must remain unchanged. Keep reusable project rules in the project; keep the current request in its task conversation.
Keep follow-ups with the work
Continue the task when you are refining the same result. Create a separate task when the goal changes, and explicitly reference the decisions it needs. A shared workspace organizes context; it does not mean every provider receives unlimited conversation history.
