Open Your Project

Every new workspace starts with a ready-to-use project, so you can begin immediately without any setup step. That project is where tasks run, files live, and shell sessions attach.

Step 1 — Open the project list

In the sidebar, click All Projects. Your default project should already be listed there.

Step 2 — Open the default project

Click the project card or name to open it. On the overview page, confirm that:

  • The status shows active.
  • New Task is available so you can start work right away.
  • Terminal and Files are available in the sidebar.

If the project shows error, check the server logs or contact your platform admin.

Step 3 — Rename it if you want

If the default name is too generic, use the rename action on the project card and give it a clearer purpose, for example:

  • production-api
  • data-analysis
  • sandbox

Good names help both teammates and connector routing pick the right project later.

Step 4 — Create more projects when you need them

You can still create additional projects from the All Projects page whenever you want separate runtimes for different apps, environments, or experiments.

Optional setup

Once you open the project, you can also configure:

  • Personality in Settings. See Agents & Personalities.
  • Sandbox networking in Settings for projects that need package installs, API calls, or web access.
  • Memory in Workspace Settings if you want shared long-term notes. See Workspace Memory.
  • Default Context in Settings for shared background instructions that should be prepended to every task.

Tips

  • A workspace can have many projects, but most people only need one to get started.
  • Archive projects you are no longer using to keep the list tidy.
  • Projects do not keep always-on containers running. Meowbert starts sandbox containers only while a task run or terminal session is active.
