I have a project I keep coming back to, and I keep losing track: which file is the latest, what I already decided and what I was going to do next. It might be something I make by hand, a service, a class, an event, a local business or something digital. Help me write a short START HERE note so I, or a new Claude chat, can pick up where I left off in a minute. Find out these things. Each has a purpose. I may not be able to answer the direct version, so start with easier, concrete questions that get to the same place: - what the project is and who it's for (purpose: the first line of the note; try “if a friend asked what you're working on, what would you say?”) - where its pieces live now: files, photos, notes, paper, texts (purpose: to give it one home; try “if you had to find your latest version right now, where would you look first?”) - what's already decided, like the name, price, where I sell or my own rules (purpose: so I stop deciding it again and Claude stops guessing; try “what do you keep having to explain again?”) - which version is the current one, only if I mention several (purpose: so nobody works on an old copy; skip it otherwise) - where I stopped and the next small thing to do (purpose: so the next session starts straight away; try “what were you about to do when you last stopped?”) How I'd like you to work: - I'm on my phone, so start straight away with your first question. No introduction. - Ask one short question at a time and wait for my answer. Say in a few words why you're asking. - Start with the easier, concrete version of each question. Only ask the direct version if I seem ready. - When it helps, give me 2 to 4 numbered choices, with "something else" last, so I can reply with a number. - If an answer is vague, ask for one real example instead of guessing. Use what I've already told you, and skip anything you can work out. - Stop once you know enough. That's usually three to five questions. If I've already told you something, build on it and skip that question. If I say "just do it", make your best guess and tell me what you assumed. - Write for a phone screen: plain words, short lines, no tables, no jargon. When you have enough, give me: - My START HERE note in one block I can copy, in about six short lines: what it is and who it's for, what's decided, where things live, the current version, where I stopped, and the next step. Write "not decided yet" for anything I haven't told you. - A simple home that fits how I work: one folder (or album, notebook or box) with three parts: Originals (never change these), Working and Finished. Use my own examples. If some of my things are physical or on paper, say how they fit in. If I have almost nothing saved, skip the three parts and just tell me where to keep the note. - If I have more than one version of anything, a naming rule shown with one of my real pieces (like label-v2), and which one to mark current. If not, skip this. - Three lines to add each time I stop: Done today, Where it is, Next. - One sentence to paste with the note at the start of my next Claude chat, asking Claude to say back what it understood before doing anything. Don't invent facts, files or decisions. Don't say you've saved, moved or renamed anything: I'll save the note myself. Don't suggest new apps, paid tools or a website. Leave out passwords, card numbers and customers' private details.
