Templates and Models

Templates give you an editable starting prompt for a common kind of Space. They can propose skills, automations, and likely connections, but nothing is added until you approve it.

How templates work

1. Select Engineering, Marketing, Support, Sales, Data, or HR & Ops.
2. Edit the prompt so it matches your team and workflow.
3. Choose Claude or Codex, then create the Space.
4. Review the proposed setup in the first thread.
5. Approve the skills, automations, and connections you want to add.

You can also skip the templates and describe the Space in your own words.

Claude and Codex

Claude and Codex are the main harnesses that run a Space’s shared computer. Both can reason, use tools, run code, create files, and build working apps. Pick the one that fits the work, then tune its model and effort in Space settings.

• Start with Codex for code-heavy work, repository changes, and technical investigation.
• Start with Claude for research, analysis, writing, and operational work.

These are useful defaults, not hard limits. You can change the runtime later.

Model choice also affects cost: usage is metered at each provider’s current published API rates, so flagship models cost more per token than faster ones. See how AI usage is priced.

Use your existing subscription

You can connect an existing Claude or Codex subscription from account settings. Supported requests can run through that subscription much like they would in a local environment, without drawing down the workspace’s AI usage allowance. See Use your Claude and Codex subscriptions.

The subscription belongs to your account. The Space still supplies the shared connections, skills, memory, threads, and Library around the work.

Change the defaults later

Open Space settings → Details to change the name, description, runtime, model, reasoning effort, and Fast setting. New threads and automations that use Agent default inherit those choices.

Changing the runtime clears a saved model when that model belongs to the other runtime. This keeps a Claude model from carrying into Codex, or a Codex model from carrying into Claude.
