Submitting Work

Congratulations on finishing a milestone! This page will guide you through the official process for submitting your work. This is a critical step that creates a formal, on-chain record of your delivery and officially notifies the Project Creator, starting the review cycle that leads to your payment.


The Two Parts of a Submission

A complete submission has two key components:

  1. Providing the Deliverables: This is the actual work you produced (e.g., the design file, the code, the written report).

  2. Notifying the System: This is a specific command you send in the chat to tell the AI agent that your work is officially ready for review.

It's best to do both of these at the same time to keep the project history clean and easy to follow.


Step 1: Prepare and Share Your Deliverables

Before you notify the system, prepare your final work and share it in the project's group chat.

Best Practices for Sharing

  • 🎨 For Designers: Provide a direct link to your work on platforms like Figma, or upload the final asset files (e.g., .png, .svg, .pdf) directly to the chat.

    "Here is the Figma link for the final wireframes: https://figma.com/link/..."

  • 💻 For Developers: Share a link to the specific pull request, commit, or branch on GitHub/GitLab. If applicable, provide a link to a live staging or demo server.

    "The code for the user authentication feature is complete. Here is the PR: https://github.com/project/pull/42"

  • ✍️ For Writers & Consultants: Attach the final document as a PDF or provide a shareable link from a platform like Google Docs.

    "Attached is the final market research report. Please let me know if you have any questions."


Step 2: Send the Official Submission Command

Immediately after sharing your work, you must send the official command to the AI agent. This formally updates the project's status.

Example Command:

@CollabraChain-AI, I'm submitting my work for "Milestone 1: Strategy & Plan". It's ready for review.

ℹ️ Pro Tip: Always state the specific milestone you are submitting for. This helps maintain a clear record if you are working on multiple milestones at once.

(This is the perfect place for a screenshot showing a user message with a file/link, immediately followed by their submission command.)


What Happens After You Submit

The system provides immediate feedback so you know your submission was successful.

  1. AI Acknowledgment: The agent will confirm it has received your submission and notified the Project Creator.

    🤖 AI Response:

    Thank you, @ben.base. Your submission for "Milestone 1: Strategy & Plan" has been recorded and the Project Creator has been notified. The status is now 'Pending Approval'.
  2. Status Change: The project's state for your milestone is now officially Pending Approval. The Project Creator will now review your work.

Common Questions

  • Q: I've submitted my work, but the client wants a revision. What do I do?

    • A: Simply discuss the revision requests in the chat and provide the updated work (e.g., a new file or an updated link). You do not need to send the submission command again. The milestone remains "Pending Approval" until the creator is satisfied and officially approves it.

  • Q: How long does the creator have to review my work?

    • A: While the smart contract doesn't enforce a time limit, your project agreement should ideally include expected review periods. If you don't hear back in a reasonable time, it's appropriate to send a friendly follow-up message in the chat.

After your work is reviewed and approved, the next step is getting paid, which CollabraChain makes automatic.
