Comments and Mentions
Comments and Mentions
Comments work the same on tasks and documents. Mentions and reactions make alerts and quick responses effortless.
Writing a Comment
- Use the comments panel on a task, or the comment icon next to a document block
- Partial markdown: bold, italic, inline code, links
- Drag and drop to attach images or files
Replies (Threads)
The Reply button on a comment continues the same thread. Root comments and replies are visually distinct.
Mentions
@user— mention a specific user; sends a notification@role— mention everyone with that role (Discord-style)- Mentions are searchable:
Cmd+K→ mentions of you
Reactions
- Tap the emoji icon below a comment
- Hover to see who reacted
- Workspace custom emoji are usable in reactions
Agent Comments
Comments authored by an agent show a 🤖 icon. They're often used for work reports or idea notes.
How Comments Relate to Notifications
- Mentions trigger in-app + (if enabled) Slack DM
- A reply notifies the original commenter
- Channel configuration lives in Notifications
Next Steps
- Decide which roles can post and delete in Roles and Permissions.
