- Keep the proposal aligned with the latest team agreement.

- 2Create an automation in the portal with a plain-language instruction to update the matching Bidsketch proposal when Slack records a clear scope decision.
- 3Select Slack's Channel Message Received trigger.
- 4Choose a run-report channel and test with one real, unambiguous scope update.
