Groups are color-coded tags you can stick on a task — a way to organize work by area or category that cuts across whatever column it's currently sitting in. A single task can carry as many groups as make sense (for example, both ''UI'' and ''L10N'' at once). You'll find them on the Groups page, linked from Manage.

Groups are '''per-project''', like [[RefractTrack_Stages|Stages]] and [[RefractTrack_Bulk_Task_Creation_and_Saved_Lists|Saved Lists]]: every new project automatically gets a standard starter set — Art, UI, BGM, Gen, SFX, Player, Mob, Boss, Map — each with a distinct color, which can be freely renamed, recolored, deleted, or added to afterward. Nothing about one project's groups affects another project's.

=== Editing scope ===
Like [[RefractTrack_Stages|Stages]], groups belong to a single project, and every new project starts out with a ready-made set — '''Art''', '''UI''', '''BGM''', '''Gen''', '''SFX''', '''Player''', '''Mob''', '''Boss''', '''Map''', and '''L10N''' (short for localization) — each with its own color. Rename them, recolor them, delete the ones you don't need, or add new ones; none of it affects any other project.
 
When editing an existing group, the project it belongs to is derived from the group's own <code><nowiki>project_id</nowiki></code>, not from the URL or whichever project happens to be "current" in the session — so editing a group while a ''different'' project is active in the nav doesn't silently mis-scope the save. (Creating a new group still uses the normally-current project.)
 
=== Permissions ===
 
Like stages, group management permissions (<code><nowiki>groups:*</nowiki></code>) are deliberately '''not''' project-scoped — the ability to manage groups at all is a global grant; only which project's groups are being viewed changes per page. See "Project-scoped permissions" in [[RefractTrack_Permissions_and_Roles|Permissions and Roles]].

Groups

Groups are color-coded tags you can stick on a task — a way to organize work by area or category that cuts across whatever column it's currently sitting in. A single task can carry as many groups as make sense (for example, both UI and L10N at once). You'll find them on the Groups page, linked from Manage.

The default set of groups a new project starts out with.
The default set of groups a new project starts out with.

Every project gets its own starter set

Like Stages, groups belong to a single project, and every new project starts out with a ready-made set — Art, UI, BGM, Gen, SFX, Player, Mob, Boss, Map, and L10N (short for localization) — each with its own color. Rename them, recolor them, delete the ones you don't need, or add new ones; none of it affects any other project.
