# Platform Navigation

Alludium uses a persistent workspace shell. The left sidebar is the main navigation anchor, while the top bar contains documentation, guides, notifications, account, and workspace controls.

When you sign in, Alludium opens the Inbox by default. What appears in the sidebar depends on your workspace role.

## Member Sidebar

Members see a focused navigation model for day-to-day work.

| Sidebar Item           | What It Does                                                                            |
| ---------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Inbox**              | View, create, and continue tasks. This is the default authenticated landing surface.    |
| **Files**              | Upload, search, preview, and use workspace files.                                       |
| **Create Project**     | Start a project when project creation is available in the workspace.                    |
| **Project type links** | Open filtered project views, such as a deal-room or workflow-specific project category. |
| **Settings**           | Manage personal settings and view role-appropriate workspace settings.                  |

If you are a Member and do not see Agent Builder, Skills, Integrations, Automations, Project Types, or Task Types, that is expected.

## Administration Sidebar

Admins and Owners can see the broader administration model.

| Sidebar Item      | What It Does                                                                                                        |
| ----------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Inbox**         | View, create, and continue tasks.                                                                                   |
| **Integrations**  | Browse external systems, review available tools, and manage connections.                                            |
| **Projects**      | Work with durable project spaces such as deal rooms, campaigns, or customer engagements.                            |
| **Files**         | Upload, search, preview, and manage workspace files.                                                                |
| **My Agents**     | Run and interact with deployed agents where available.                                                              |
| **Templates**     | Browse pre-built agent starting points.                                                                             |
| **Skills**        | Browse and manage reusable playbooks that can be attached to agents.                                                |
| **Agent Builder** | Create, configure, test, deploy, and share agents.                                                                  |
| **Automations**   | Create and monitor scheduled or recurring work.                                                                     |
| **Project Types** | Manage reusable project setups and pack-backed project blueprints.                                                  |
| **Task Types**    | Manage reusable task definitions, fields, schemas, and output contracts.                                            |
| **Settings**      | Manage workspace, people, SSO, notifications, billing, account, appearance, and privacy settings according to role. |

Owners may have additional billing, plan, SSO, or governance controls that Admins and Members do not.

## Secondary Surfaces

Some important surfaces are opened from another section rather than shown as a separate sidebar item.

| Surface                | How You Reach It                                                                                                                                             |
| ---------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Execution Logs**     | Open from Automations or go to the Runs view when reviewing automation and execution history.                                                                |
| **Project detail**     | Open a project from Projects or a project type shortcut. Project tabs can include Command, Tasks, Activity, Files, Data, Operations, Integrations, and Team. |
| **Integration detail** | Open an integration from Integrations. Integration tabs include Dashboard, Available Tools, and Your Connections.                                            |
| **Task detail**        | Open a task from Inbox. Task detail keeps the task state, conversation, child tasks, inputs, and outputs together.                                           |

## Top Bar

The top bar gives quick access to:

* Product documentation
* In-product guides
* Notifications
* Account and workspace menu
* Credit or billing status where available

The account and workspace menu is where you switch workspaces. Settings is also available directly from the sidebar.

## Navigation Tips

**Start from what you can see.** The docs use role callouts because the sidebar changes by role.

**Use visible labels over legacy terms.** If a page label says Files, Integrations, Automations, or Project Setups, use that user-facing term even if older internal code or URLs still contain artifacts, applications, triggers, or project types.

**Treat Projects and Project Types separately.** Projects are live workspaces. Project Types are reusable setups that define how projects are created and run.

**Treat Inbox and Task Types separately.** Inbox is where work happens. Task Types define reusable task templates and output contracts.
