Workspaces

Workspaces are the organizational foundation of Lattice. Each workspace provides an isolated environment for a specific research initiative, keeping your sources, conversations, and artifacts separate.

Creating a Workspace

Section titled “Creating a Workspace”
  1. Click the workspace selector at the top of the Sources panel
  2. Select + New Workspace from the dropdown
  3. Enter a descriptive name (e.g., “Claude Sonnet Evaluation”)
  4. Press Enter to create and switch to the new workspace

Workspace Contents

Section titled “Workspace Contents”

Each workspace maintains its own isolated set of:

ComponentDescription
SourcesDocuments, URLs, and repositories indexed for search
MessagesComplete conversation history with the AI
ArtifactsGenerated tables, charts, memos, and diagrams
ScenariosWorkload configurations with SLOs and constraints
StacksInfrastructure recommendations

Switching Workspaces

Section titled “Switching Workspaces”

Click the workspace selector to see all your workspaces. Each entry shows:

  • Workspace name
  • Source count — how many documents are indexed
  • Message count — your conversation history

A checkmark indicates the currently active workspace.

Workspace Best Practices

Section titled “Workspace Best Practices”

Keep Workspaces Focused

Section titled “Keep Workspaces Focused”

Create separate workspaces for distinct projects:

✓ "Claude vs GPT-4 for RAG" — focused comparison
✓ "Q1 Infrastructure Review" — time-bounded evaluation
✓ "Fine-tuning Cost Analysis" — specific use case


✗ "AI Research" — too broad, will become cluttered

Archive Old Workspaces

Section titled “Archive Old Workspaces”

When a project concludes, you can archive workspaces to keep your workspace list clean while preserving the data for future reference.
