Stop Explaining Your Codebase to Your AI Every Time

Every conversation with your AI starts the same way. "I'm building a Rails app, deployed on Hetzner, using SQLite..." You've typed this a hundred times. Your AI is smart. But it has no memory. Every chat starts from zero. Your project context, your conventions, your past decisions — gone. What if your AI already knew all of that? Here are five notes that make that happen. 1. Your stack, saved once Write one note with your tech stack, deployment setup, and conventions. Now every conversation starts with context. Now ask: "Write a background job that syncs user data to Stripe." Your AI reads the note. It knows it's Rails, knows you use Solid Queue, knows your conventions. No preamble needed. 2. Error fixes you'll hit again You spend 45 minutes debugging a Kamal deploy. You find the fix. A week later, same error. You Google it again. Save the fix instead. Next time it happens: "I'm getting a health check timeout on Kamal deploy. Have I seen this before?" Your AI finds the fix immediately.
