Ten minutes telling your AI who you are, so the answers stop coming back generic. It interviews you and writes a page called You, On One Page.
Paste one block into Claude, answer the questions out loud the way you would talk to a person, then put the page it writes into Claude's instructions in Settings.

Onboard Your Business
Twenty quiet minutes, and your AI stops guessing at what you do. It interviews you and hands back your business on one page, plus the instructions that teach Claude that business.
Paste one block into Claude and answer plainly. Keep the page it writes; it is the thing every later conversation reads.

Onboard Your Project
Works out whether a piece of work should be a project at all, says so plainly when the answer is no, and writes the project's instructions when the answer is yes.
Paste block one into a chat before you create anything. Block two makes your AI keep a journal of the work, so you stop explaining the same thing twice.

Onboard Your AI Agent
Asks about the work you do every week, picks the one task worth handing over first, says plainly when a task is not ready, and then writes it.
Paste one block into Claude. It applies one test to your task: if this goes wrong, could you undo it. Take the verdict seriously, including "not yet".
