# Collaboration

> Share Epic boards with your team and collaborate in real time. Invite collaborators, assign tickets, and work together from requirements to implementation.

Collaboration in Epic Mode enables teams to work together on the same specs and tickets, from requirements through implementation. Share Epic boards with teammates, assign work, and collaborate in real time—all while maintaining a single source of truth for your development process.

## Overview

Epic Mode collaboration provides:

* **Shared Epic boards** - Everyone works from the same set of specs and tickets
* **Real-time editing** - Multiple people can edit specs and tickets simultaneously with live updates
* **Ticket assignment** - Distribute work across team members
* **Organization sharing** - Share boards with your entire organization
* **Cross-device sync** - Access your workspace from any device

## Inviting Team Members

### Sharing with organizations

If your account has access to an organization, the Organizations section in the share dialog lets you share the Epic board directly with your entire organization. Select an access level (`Editor` or `Viewer`), then click `Share`.

## Access Levels

The share dialog shows everyone who currently has access to the board. You can change access levels or remove access at any time.

* **Owner**: Board owner with full control over the Epic and all its contents
* **Editor**: Can collaborate on shared specs and tickets, assign tickets, and make changes to artifacts
* **Viewer**: Can view the shared board and its contents without editing permissions

## Ticket Assignment

</Frame>

Distribute work across your team by assigning tickets to specific collaborators. Once you've shared your Epic board with team members, they'll appear in the assignee dropdown and you can assign tickets to them directly.

### How ticket assignment works

* **Assign from ticket view** - Use the assignee dropdown directly in the ticket view
* **Search by name or handle** - Quickly find team members by searching their name or GitHub handle
* **Leave tickets Unassigned** - Keep tickets unassigned if ownership isn't determined yet
* **Track ownership** - The current assignee is visible directly in the ticket list

## Real-Time Collaboration

Multiple people can work in the same Epic board simultaneously:

* **Live updates** - Changes to specs and tickets appear in real time for all collaborators
* **Presence indicators** - See who's currently viewing or editing artifacts
* **Conflict-free editing** - The system handles concurrent edits automatically
* **Synchronized views** - Everyone sees the same state of the board

## Sync Across Devices

Your Epic boards and task history sync automatically across all your devices. Sign in with the same Traycer account on any device to access your complete workspace.

**What syncs:**

* All Epic boards and their contents
* Specs and tickets
* Task history
* Conversation history
* Executions and verification results
