Your AI Can't Help You If It Doesn't Know Where Your Projects Stand
The article introduces a “control room” – a single, living document that captures open loops, next actions, and blockers for every active project – to give AI assistants like Claude persistent context. It walks readers through a prompt suite: a template generator, a brain‑dump organizer, a daily briefing, a three‑minute wrap‑up, and an “unstick” engine. Initial setup takes roughly 30 minutes, after which only a few minutes a day are needed to keep the document current. The method targets solo operators who currently waste time re‑creating project context at the start of each AI session.
