Expert Rooms
Creating a Room
Experts page > Expert Conversations tab > “+”:
- Enter a topic (e.g., “Should we adopt microservices?”)
- Select 2-6 expert members
- Start — experts speak in turn
Speaking Rules
- One expert at a time (serial), so they don’t output simultaneously
- Per speaking turn the whole room produces at most 10 expert replies in total (not 10 each)
- A room runs at most 3 rounds (one round ends when every member has spoken once)
- Members can output
[PASS]to yield early - A 240-second timeout skips that member automatically
Pausing & Resuming
Want an expert to sit this round out? @ it with a “stop”-type keyword (e.g., “@Legal hold on for now”) and that member stays silent for the whole round; @ it by name again to resume speaking. Paused experts show a “Paused” badge in the room header.
Real-Time Viewing
Progress messages appear in real time and the transcript is saved automatically. You can watch the whole thing, or step in mid-way to add information.
Management
- Editable after creation: rename, add or remove members (within 2-6)
- No editing or deleting while a discussion is running
- Records are kept after completion and can be reviewed anytime

How it connects with board dispatch
When the profile bound to a board task is an expert, an independent task session still opens by default; only when “Run in the expert’s main session” is ticked on the card does it route to that expert’s forever-chat and reuse context across tasks.
