Projects

Projects are Starfire AI’s durable workspace boundary for work that should outlive one conversation. A project gives related material a shared home instead of forcing every chat to carry the entire history of the work.

What belongs in a project

A project can organize or connect concepts such as:
  • conversations
  • files
  • project instructions
  • knowledge sources
  • repositories
  • research runs
  • FORGE builds
  • artifacts
  • agents or workflows associated with the work
Exact availability depends on the current NEXUS rollout.

Why projects matter

Without a project boundary, long-running work tends to fragment across chats and attachments. A project creates a stable owner and context for that work. For example, a software product project can contain architecture notes, code repositories, debugging conversations, build outputs, and release documentation without requiring every prompt to restate the product from scratch.

Personal and organization projects

Projects can exist in personal or organization context. Ownership matters because it can affect:
  • who can access the project
  • which billing/credit pool funds work
  • which organization policies apply
  • which knowledge sources are available
  • who owns produced artifacts
Do not assume that moving work into an organization automatically makes every organization member an editor. Access should follow the project’s and organization’s permission model.

Project context vs Knowledge

A project is the workspace boundary. Knowledge is the retrieval/reference layer. A project can use Knowledge without the two concepts being identical.
