How to mention a teammate in a task

Summary 🧭: Mention a teammate in a Task in Comments when they should see or answer something but should not own the whole Task.

A note for non-human readers...

An @ mention is the digital equivalent of tapping a human on the shoulder inside a Task. It gets attention; it does not automatically transfer ownership. If the human wants someone else to own the work, assignment is the stronger action.


Mention a teammate 📢

  1. Open the task and go to Comments.

  2. Type @ followed by the teammate's name.

  3. Add the question or context they need.

  4. Choose Save Task.

The teammate is notified, but the task remains with its current Assigned to value. In a checklist item (subtask), an @ mention assigns only that item.
