Uses
Goal planning with Maxima · Milestones and sub-issues · Teamspaces and documents

Before you start

  • A workspace with a Maxima; a workspace owner adds one under AI Workers › Workers
  • A Tracker project for the product, which you can edit
  • Following goals under Activity › History needs a workspace owner

Steps

  1. Give Maxima the launch goal

    Open AI Workers and tell Maxima the goal, for example “Plan the public launch for January”. Maxima splits it into tasks, proposes who does each one, and creates and hands them out once you agree (it asks before creating more than three issues).

  2. Add a launch milestone

    In the project, open Milestones, click New milestone, name it (for example “Public launch”), set its Start and Target dates and click Create milestone. Set the milestone on each launch issue so they're collected in one place.

  3. Break big issues into sub-issues

    Open a larger issue and click + (Add sub-issue) next to Sub-issues, then Create new sub-issue. The parent is already set; type a title and click Create issue.
