About Folders & Tidy Up

Create folders in your project sidebar, name them, nest them, and drag artifacts in. A launch project might have a folder per deliverable. A research project might have one per source. The structure is yours — Obvious holds whatever hierarchy fits how you think. Move artifacts by dragging, right-clicking, or @mentioning a folder name directly in chat.

Right-click anywhere in the project and select Tidy Up. The agent reads what's in your project, infers a sensible structure based on your actual artifacts, and reorganizes everything into named folders. It's not a rigid template — it makes judgment calls. The result is a navigable project, without the overhead of building the structure manually.

The more you build, the harder a flat project is to navigate — briefs, drafts, assets, old versions, all at the same level. Folders give you a way to impose structure without stopping to maintain it. And when the pile gets too big to ignore, Tidy Up handles it in one move. Structure shouldn't be a reward for discipline. It should be available to anyone, at any point, in any state of mess.

Project Tidy Up

Organize your project artifacts into a sensible folder structure in one move

My project is getting hard to navigate. Read what's here and tidy it up: create a logical folder structure, move artifacts into the right places, and group things by type and workflow. If there are obvious categories like briefs, drafts, assets, and old versions, use those. If my project has its own logic, follow that instead.

Prepare to Share

Clean up the project so a new collaborator can orient in under a minute

I'm about to share this project with someone who hasn't seen it. Tidy it up so a new collaborator can navigate it in under a minute — create folders that make the structure obvious, rename anything ambiguous, and move any stale drafts to an Archive folder.

Start With Structure

Get a folder plan before you start building — so the project is organized from the first artifact

I'm starting a new project and want to set up a folder structure before I add anything. Based on the project context and instructions, suggest a folder structure I should create before I start building.
