Explorer

Explorer is the default work surface for most teams.

What Explorer should own

  • Folder navigation
  • Item creation
  • Day-to-day organization
  • Context-preserving collaboration inside project folders
  1. Open the project folder first.
  2. Create or update items in that folder.
  3. Keep discussion and tasks in the same folder context.
  4. Use Search only when retrieval is faster than browsing.

Guardrails

  • Avoid working from repository root except for administration.
  • Avoid creating ad-hoc duplicate project folders.
  • Keep folder names stable after team adoption.

Health check

Explorer usage is healthy when users can locate active work without searching for everything.
