The first coworker flow now gives an empty workspace a clear next step: send a first message to create a persistent coworker and begin its first task. You can still choose a one-off conversation instead.

Persistent coworkers can also leave a durable attention request when a person needs to make a decision or continue the work. Requests appear on the focused coworker view, can be seen and resolved by teammates, and expire automatically when they are no longer relevant.
