Project Context Dump for AI Sessions
A reusable context block to paste at the start of any AI coding session, covering your stack, key files, conventions, and known constraints so replies stop being generic. - Fill in project name, stack, main/config files, and naming/testing conventions once - Lists known constraints like performance limits and technical debt to work around - Save it as a markdown file and refresh it weekly as the project changes - Re-paste key facts mid-session on long threads to keep the AI anchored
Here's the context for my project: Project: {{project_name}} - {{one_line_description}} Stack: {{frontend}} + {{backend}} + {{database}} Working on right now: {{session_focus}} Important files: - {{main_file_path}} - {{main_file_purpose}} - {{config_file_path}} - {{config_file_purpose}} Conventions: - {{naming_patterns}} - {{error_handling_approach}} - {{testing_strategy}} Known constraints: - {{performance_requirements}} - {{security_considerations}} - {{technical_debt}} I'm about to {{specific_task}}. Hold on to this context for the rest of our session.
