·February 20, 2026·Use cases

Pin a live thread as workspace context—launch discussions, incident channels, and async standups on the canvas.

Important Slack threads aren't on the project board. A chat pin embeds a live conversation beside metrics and plans so context stays in one place.

Why use a chat pin?

Launch war rooms

One pin for coordination during releases.

Getting started

Add a chat pin to your launch or ops canvas. Use it for the coordination thread while checklist and timeline pins hold structure.
