Intro to Claude — Book 6 · Projects: A Home Base

Book 1 told you Claude forgets between chats. This is the book that fixes it. A project holds three things: standing instructions, a curated knowledge base, and its own conversations — so every new chat inside it already knows who you are, what you sell, who your clients are and how you like to be written to. How to write instructions in two halves, why the "never do this" lines are the most valuable ones in the file, and how to grow it from answers that went wrong. Which four files earn a place in the knowledge base and which will quietly poison your answers. When a project beats a chat. Sharing on Team plans. And how projects differ from memory, which is not the same thing.
