What would you like to see?

Use Case

We need a "Team Mode" for workspaces where all users can see and continue
the same conversation history - creating a shared team memory/knowledge base.

Current Behavior

  • Multi-user mode: Chat history is isolated per user (by design)
  • Users in the same workspace cannot see each other's conversations

Requested Feature

Add a workspace-level setting: "Enable shared conversation history"

  • When enabled: All workspace members see the same conversation thread
  • When disabled: Current per-user isolation (default)

Business Value

  • Team collaboration with shared AI context
  • Reduces duplicate questions
  • Enables collective learning from AI interactions

@timothycarambat commented on GitHub (Jan 2, 2026):

This is something we wont support as a feature as it adds a ton of overhead complexity and also undoes the basic isolation a user would expect in a multi-user system. That being said, if you want to be able to share workspace and chats with anybody, you should likely use the "Password only" authentication mode.

This has its own drawbacks, but it would in effect have the same idea.

The only alternative is allowing users to share a conversation up to a specific point with another user (like a clone of the chat history). However, sub-users should not be allowed or even aware of others on the service ideally.
