01 / SETUP
Project Setup
Does your briefing file describe what's unique about your project, rather than general instructions the model already knows?
briefing file
A document in your Claude project instructions that describes your project's context, goals, and constraints — so you don't re-explain them in every prompt.
02 / KNOWLEDGE
Knowledge Quality
If you removed everything from project knowledge that isn't active reference material, would anything important disappear?
project knowledge
Files uploaded to a Claude project that provide context the model can search across sessions — reference material, not conversation history.
03 / CONTEXT
On-Demand Context
Do you have skill files for recurring workflows, built from successful runs rather than written speculatively?
skill file
A reusable instruction file in your project knowledge that encodes how to handle a specific recurring task — extracted from a successful session run.
04 / PROMPTS
Prompt Quality
Before sending a prompt, can you state exactly what the output must satisfy for you to accept it?
05 / SESSIONS
Session Discipline
In your last complex session, did output quality stay consistent from start to finish?
06 / EFFICIENCY
Efficiency
Does your briefing carry established context so individual prompts don't need to re-explain it?
07 / DISCERNMENT
Output Discernment
Before acting on or sharing model outputs, do you evaluate them against your stated requirements rather than accepting them at face value?
