R&D Workforce · showcase

Six views of the same product. Cycle view + task detail = Linear parity (30 facets). Three-way agreement + delta + T0 + AI-proposed hours + diary + KPI dashboard = the six Workforce-only extras Linear does not have. Sample data is Charles Liu (Kbot-Link + Meet3 temp assist) and Romit Bhingradiya (Kommerce-1 / AutoOMS), week of 2026-09-14.

Workforce replaces Linear — positioning
Why subscribers should not need a separate Linear subscription: keep the Linear shape, add the four things Linear won't ship (fair-KPI, three-way agreement, per-engineer diary, T0 access).

Workforce-only extras (the AI Helper layer)

05

Newcomer training — Priya first-week walkthrough
How a new engineer lands: T0 access grant, first three-way agreement, first weekly diary. Reads like the runbook a new hire follows to start being measured fairly.
Open →
Reading order to resume the process: 05 Profile (config) → 03 Spec (mechanics) → 02 Projects (populated instance) → 06 Training (how a person uses it) → 01 Dashboard (what a manager reads). 04 is positioning-only, read it if you need to explain the SKU externally.

What is real vs sample: The live app at /app is the Phase 1 build (signup, login, teams, tasks, three-way agreement API, diary rollup job). Everything under /showcase/ is design-with-sample-data — same schema, same rules, drawn with Charles + Romit's real week so you can see the shape end-to-end.
