Inviting members

Bring teammates into your Limestone organization from Settings ▸ Invite Members (ADR-0098). You need to be signed in to a Limestone account and be an admin or owner of the organization.

Sending an invite

1. Open Settings ▸ Invite Members.
2. Check the seat count — "N of M seats used". Each active member and each pending invite takes a seat. If you're out of seats, add more from Settings ▸ Organization first.
3. Enter the person's email address, pick a role (Read-only / User / Admin — you can't grant a role above your own), and Send invite.

They get an email with a link. The invite reserves a seat while it's pending.

What the invitee does

The email links to a page where they create their Limestone account (using the email you invited) and get a download link for the app. Once they accept, they're a member of your organization and the pending invite is consumed.

• Invites expire after 14 days (configurable). An expired link is refused — just send a fresh invite (it also refreshes the window).
• After accepting, the invitee gets a get-started checklist (download, sign in, set a passphrase, sync the vault folder, open it). During the beta the app is a macOS-only, unsigned download — see installing-limestone.md for the one-time Gatekeeper step. On Windows/Linux the download honestly says the app is coming.

Managing members

Full member management — changing roles, removing people, adjusting seats and billing — lives in Settings ▸ Organization. Invite Members is just the quick "add someone by email" path.

Notes

• Seats are enforced by the account service, so you can't over-invite past your seat count (the invite is refused with a clear message).
• Access to a shared vault's files is still governed by how the vault's storage (e.g. a Google Drive folder) is shared — see the shared-vault setup. Org membership sets identity, roles, and seats.
