Three ways to share a Claude workspace. What to standardize, what to personalize, and how to onboard new team members.
A workspace is just files. That makes sharing simple. You have three options, depending on your team's setup.
Some things should be the same for everyone. Brand voice rules, coding conventions, project structure, and shared commands. These are your team's standards.
Small teams (2-5 people): one shared workspace in Git. Everyone uses the same configuration. Update it together during team meetings.
When someone joins your team, they need the workspace. Make it part of your onboarding checklist.
Yes. The same workspace files work in terminal, co-work, and desktop chat. Each person can use whichever mode they prefer.
If it's in Git, changes go through your normal review process. If it's a ZIP, changes only affect the person's local copy.
Assign an owner. Review the workspace monthly. When processes change, update the workspace in the same PR as the process change.
Yes. Claude reads workspace files from multiple directories. Put company-wide standards in a parent directory and team-specific content in each team's folder.
