# add_workspace_proposal

Capture a workspace-level flash of insight into the 'drawer of inspiration' — cross-project ideas that don't belong to any one project yet. Unlike sprint items these are NOT executor-claimable; they require a human to review and promote them. Proposals start at status='raw' and progress through an enforced lifecycle: raw → investigating → promoted|rejected. Use advance_proposal_status to move through the lifecycle; use promote_proposal to convert one into a real sprint item. Persistent-state disclosure: on hosted Meridian, supplied text and project/session metadata are sent to and stored in Meridian's service; self-hosted deployments keep them in the configured local SQLite/Postgres database. This data is visible in the dashboard/API and later project context or handoffs. Delete individual tasks, notes, or decisions where supported, or delete the project/account using the documented controls. Do not include secrets.

## Why add_workspace_proposal is rated Medium

The tool writes new persistent records to a workspace-level storage system but does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, or move money. The severity is medium because misuse (e.g., flooding with spam proposals, storing sensitive data in proposals) could clutter the workspace and potentially expose metadata to human reviewers, but the impact is containable through human review gates and the…

From the tool's own definition: "Tool creates new proposal records via 'add_workspace_proposal' that are stored persistently in state ('sent to and stored in Me[ridian]')."

Risk signals: Accepts raw HTML/template content (body)

## Use case
