Comments & Activity

Keep every conversation, decision, and audit trail attached to the card itself. No more hunting Slack threads or email chains for context.

4 min readUpdated May 2026

Overview

Every card has two streams: Comments (free-form discussion) and Activity (automatic audit log of every change). You can view them together or filter to just one.

Looks good — added two notes inline.

A live comment thread with mentions, reactions, and a system-generated activity entry.

Commenting

@-mention

Tag anyone in the workspace — they get an inbox notification (and email if they want).

Rich formatting

Bold, italic, lists, headers, code blocks, links — full markdown shortcuts.

Attach in-thread

Drop screenshots and files directly into a comment — they live with the message.

Reactions

👍 👀 🎉 ❤️ — keep the channel quiet but acknowledge fast.

Threaded replies

Reply to any comment to keep sub-conversations from cluttering the main thread.

Edit & delete

Fix typos within 5 minutes silently. After that, an "edited" tag appears for transparency.

Activity log

Every move, edit, assignment, label change, and due-date update is recorded automatically. Hover any entry to see what changed exactly. Click to revert.

Tip
Filter the side panel to Comments only or Activity only if one is drowning out the other. Settings stick per-card.

Best practices

Treat comments like async meeting notes — future-you will thank you:

Decisions, not just chat

Capture the "why" behind moves and edits. Three months from now, this is gold.

Mention sparingly

Every mention is a notification. Use them for action, not "FYI". CC the channel for ambient updates.

Link, don't paste

For long content (specs, designs), link to the source instead of pasting walls of text.

Reply, don't restart

Use threaded replies to keep related thoughts together. Main thread stays scannable.

Get notified the way you want

Email, push, Slack, or in-app only — choose per workspace and per type. We don't believe in spam.
