AI Context Project Guide

Project information

An AI assistant forgets everything between sessions, and real product work takes weeks. This guide closes that gap. It shows you how to keep a context project: a small, private repository holding what your assistant needs to know about your product. Any session can then pick up where the last one stopped.

What you get from it:

Sessions that start informed. The assistant reads your project's rules and its current work before it acts. Work that survives interruption. Each piece of work is a task list on disk, with every task's status marked. Lessons that are kept. A mistake made once is written down, checked for, and passed to the projects it affects.

The guide works with Claude Code, Windsurf, Cursor, and other AI editors. Its subject can be software, or anything else that spans many sessions: a business plan, a research project, a book.
