# Workspace

> Build your own multi-tile trading terminal - 18 tile types, saved layouts, an attached Cortex agent that reads your tiles, and shareable layouts.

Source: https://tradeecho.com/docs/features/workspace (updated 2026-08-05)

Workspace is Trade Echo's **build-your-own terminal**: a drag-and-drop grid where you compose the tools you actually use - flow, gamma, dark pool, news, your P&L - into one screen. Open it at **Workspace** in the web sidebar (`/workspace`).

Workspace is currently **web only**.

## The 18 tile types

Click **+ Add tile** to open the picker:

| Tile | What it shows |
|------|----------------|
| **Gamma GEX** | Per-ticker dealer gamma chart + KPIs |
| **Net Flow** | Per-ticker net option premium + volume with bias |
| **NewsEdge** | Live news feed with channel filters |
| **Performance** | Calendar + heatmap of your P&L |
| **Watchlist** | Your saved tickers + live quotes |
| **AlgoEdge** | Algorithmic signals + contract drilldown |
| **Darkpool** | Live dark pool prints feed |
| **OptionFlow** | Unusual options activity feed |
| **Dealer Edge Heatmap** | Per-strike dealer gamma heatmap |
| **Dealer Edge Pro** | Multi-ticker dealer gamma side-by-side |
| **Dealer Edge Focus** | Per-ticker dealer positioning deep-dive |
| **Pulse Chart** | Price chart with GEX / darkpool / net-flow overlays and replay |
| **Dealer Edge Greeks** | Dealer greeks read for a ticker |
| **Futures Echo Map** | Futures session map with live levels |
| **Treemap** | Market heatmap grid |
| **Snapshot** | Sentiment snapshot for a ticker or the tape |
| **Rotation Lab** | Relative rotation map (sectors, holdings, watchlist) - see [Rotation Lab](https://tradeecho.com/docs/features/rotation-lab) |
| **Cortex AI** | AI assistant chat - ask about your tiles |

Tiles resize and rearrange freely (each has a sensible minimum size). Most tiles have per-tile settings - default ticker, filters, density - via the gear on the tile header. **OptionFlow is capped at one per layout** for now.

## Layouts

The **layout switcher** in the header is a dropdown, not a tab bar:

- Click the current layout name to **rename** it inline
- **+ New layout** saves your current arrangement as a new layout
- **Delete layout** soft-deletes (your default layout is protected)

Build one layout per routine - a morning-prep screen, a 0DTE screen, an earnings screen - and switch between them in two clicks.

## Cortex in your Workspace

Add the **Cortex AI** tile and your workspace becomes conversational:

- **Attach an agent** - attach one of your Cortex agents to the layout. It receives a snapshot of your bound tiles' state as context with every message you send from the tile.
- **Context bindings** - the bindings pill in the workspace header (visible once an agent is attached) lets you toggle exactly which tiles feed the agent. Bound tiles' data rides along; unbound tiles stay private to the screen.

So "what do you make of this flow?" actually means *this* flow - the OptionFlow tile on your screen.

## Sharing a layout

From the layout switcher, open **Share this layout**:

1. Create a share link (existing links are listed so you can copy or revoke them)
2. Send the URL - it looks like `/workspace/share/<code>`
3. The recipient sees the layout's title, creator, and tile manifest, and can **Add to my Workspace** - forking a private copy onto their own account

Sharing copies the **layout**, not your data - their tiles load their own quotes, watchlists, and P&L.
