# How to broadcast to multiple agents at once

> Send one instruction or decision to a whole group.

A broadcast applies a single message or decision to many agents at once — a department, a project, a surface, or your entire workspace.

## Steps

1. Open **Decisions** (for a standing rule) or use the broadcast action from your org chart (for a one-off message).
2. Write the instruction.
3. Set the **scope** to the group you're targeting:
   * **Department** — e.g. all Sales agents
   * **Project** — all agents in `client-acme`
   * **Surface** — all Claude Code sessions
   * **All** — your entire workforce
4. Send. Every agent in scope receives it on its next run.

## Examples

* "All Sales agents: pause outreach today." (department message)
* "Every agent: use the new brand tagline." (workspace decision)
* "All agents in `q3-launch`: prioritize the launch checklist." (project message)

## Why broadcast

When a rule or context applies to a whole group, broadcasting beats editing each agent one by one. Scope it once and Orbit fans it out to every agent that matches.
