# Set up Mana for your team

Create your organization, set up its agents, and invite your team to a ready store.

Do these eight steps as the admin, in this order.

## Create your organization

Choose **Sign in** at the top of this page. When the sign-in asks for an organization, create one for your team. Its first person to sign in becomes its Mana admin, as [Members and roles](https://mana.scalarmind.com/docs/organization.md) says.

If you signed in before, do not create a second organization: Mana keeps the space of your first sign-in. When the id under the **Settings** title starts with `org_`, use that organization. If not, choose **Open a request** on the **Support** card.

## Connect your agent

Connect your own agent with [the agent picker](https://mana.scalarmind.com/docs/start-here.md#connect-your-agent). Steps 5 and 6 use it.

## Require the plugin in Claude Code

If your team uses Claude Code, add the Mana plugin to its [managed settings](https://mana.scalarmind.com/docs/claude-code.md#require-it-for-every-member). Each member then gets it and cannot turn it off.

## Set up claude.ai or ChatGPT for everyone

On claude.ai Team or Enterprise, a claude.ai owner [adds the Mana connector](https://mana.scalarmind.com/docs/claude-ai.md#the-owner-adds-the-connector) once. On a ChatGPT Business, Enterprise or Edu workspace, a workspace admin [adds and publishes it](https://mana.scalarmind.com/docs/chatgpt.md#the-admin-adds-the-connector). Each member then only connects.

If every member connects Mana in claude.ai, the owner also [pastes the Mana rules](https://mana.scalarmind.com/docs/claude-ai.md#the-owner-decides-on-organization-instructions) into Organization instructions. ChatGPT has no such step yet.

## Add the three Mana skills

Ask your agent to add them to your organization, with [the sentence of the skills guide](https://mana.scalarmind.com/docs/skills.md#adding-them-to-your-organization). Every agent of the organization then sees them.

## Write your first standing records

Each agent reads your `highlight/`, `learning/glossary` and `config/` records when it connects, before its first tool call. Everyone in your organization reads them. Start with your main project:

```say
Remember this under highlight/<project>: <what the project is, and what to search for>.
```

[Standing records](https://mana.scalarmind.com/docs/standing-records.md) has the details.

## Invite your team

Open **Settings**, and choose **Manage members** on the **Members** card. Invite each person by email as **Member** or **Admin**, as [Invite a colleague](https://mana.scalarmind.com/docs/organization.md#invite-a-colleague) shows.

Send each person [the guide for an invited member](https://mana.scalarmind.com/docs/joined-a-team.md) and your id, which **Copy id** under the **Settings** title copies. They compare it with the id in their own **Settings** before their first memory.

## Create teams for knowledge that is not for everyone

Open **Settings**, and choose **Manage teams** on the **Teams** card. Create a [team](https://mana.scalarmind.com/docs/organization.md#teams-who-reads-what) under **New team**.

A row shows a sign-in id that starts with `person:`, not a name. A person's row comes at their first sign-in, so ask each person when they signed in. Then choose **Add to** on their new row.

Then [store your first memory](https://mana.scalarmind.com/docs/first-memory.md).
