Workstate docs
Workstate is the shared memory and decision record for people and their AI agents. It makes the code, documents, tickets and files your team already keeps searchable, with citations. It also keeps a record of what your team decided and why, so nobody starts from zero.
These docs are for everyone who works with Workstate: the people who set it up, the people who work alongside agents, and the people who write the instructions those agents follow.
