Roles & Agents
Who uses the system and what AI participates. SpineWorkspace serves every role in the organization. Each role gets a domain-specific projection of the workbench. AI agents work alongside humans, never replacing them.Design Principles
- Humans are core actors — AI augments, never replaces
- One Twin per user — Each person has their own AI partner
- Role-scoped — Everything is scoped to the user’s role
- Coworker is ambient — Always present, never intrusive
- Domain agents are specialized — Deep expertise in one area
