Project Modes

Inside a project, CORA supports different working modes depending on whether you are executing within scope or discovering additional sources.

Project Context mode

By default, new threads created inside a project run in Project Context mode.

In this mode:

  • Answers can reference all linked documents together
  • Citations and grounding reflect the current project scope
  • Reasoning remains confined to the project’s defined documents

Explore mode inside a project

Projects can also run Explore mode for discovery.

This is useful when:

  • You need to identify additional regulations or standards
  • You are unsure whether a document should be part of the project scope

To switch modes:

  1. Open the mode toggle (if available)
  2. Select Explore
  3. Start a new chat

Tip

Use Explore mode to expand scope, then return to Project Context mode to consolidate and produce traceable outputs.
