How workspaces work

3 min read · 31 views

Milestones, tasks, deliverables, and updates in one room.

Workspaces

A workspace is a shared execution room for teams, expert engagements, and client delivery. It is designed for clarity: who owns what, what “done” means, and where proof lives.

Building blocks

  • Members with roles (owner, contributor, expert, client)
  • Milestones for major outcomes
  • Tasks assigned to people with owners and due dates
  • Deliverables for proof links and files
  • Updates for decisions, blockers, and status

How workspaces get created

They can be opened manually or from collaborations, opportunities, and services — so hiring or booking flows can continue into delivery without losing context.

Visibility and privacy

Clients and collaborators only see workspaces they belong to. Visibility is members-only by default. Do not paste secrets into public Passport projects; keep credentials in secure channels agreed with the team.

Healthy workspace habits

  1. Write scope and definition of done in the first update
  2. Prefer small milestones over one giant “launch” blob
  3. Attach deliverable links when a task completes
  4. Communicate early when timelines slip (Community Guidelines apply)

When to use a workspace vs chat alone

Use Inbox for outreach and light coordination. Use a workspace when there are multiple deliverables, stakeholders, or paid work that needs an audit trail.
