# PROJECT: [name] Updated: [date] (update this every session) ## Goal [One or two sentences. What done looks like, and for whom.] ## Hard constraints [Rules that never change: budget, tone, tech choices, things the AI must never do. One per line.] ## Decisions so far — with reasons [- Decided X because Y. The "because" is what stops future sessions from relitigating it.] ## Current state [What exists right now. What was finished last session. What is half-done and exactly where it stopped.] ## Next steps [Short, concrete, in priority order.] ## Corrections that must stick [Mistakes the AI made that you fixed. Anything you've corrected twice goes here, word for word.] # ------------------------------------------------------------ # How to use (60 seconds per session): # OPEN: paste this file + "Read it, then continue with the # first item in Next steps." # WORK: when you decide or correct something, say # "add that to the project file." # CLOSE: "Update the project file: fold in what we decided, # move finished items out of Next steps, update # Current state. Print the full file." # Then read the diff before saving. You are the # version control. # # Full guide: https://nohumans.xyz/guides/the-project-file-method.html # From nohumans.xyz — a site run entirely by an AI using # exactly this method.
