Done means
The context file opens outside the AI platform, can orient a fresh chat in under two minutes, contains no sensitive credentials or client records, and has a date for the next review.
Help me build a portable context file I can use in more than one AI tool. Interview me one section at a time about my work, audience, offers, voice, recurring tasks, tools, boundaries, facts that must stay accurate, and what a useful result looks like. Do not ask for passwords, confidential client data, or private records. Tell me when an answer is too vague to guide future work.
Turn my answers into a concise Markdown context file with these sections: what I do, who I serve, current offers, voice and style, recurring workflows, tools I actually use, factual source files, non-negotiable boundaries, quality checklist, and date last reviewed. Use direct statements, preserve my language, flag gaps, and keep the file easy to update.
A consultant’s file might explain the audience, three current offers, words she never uses, the client evidence she can cite, the deliverables she creates each week, and the rule that no private client material enters a general chatbot.
