One thing that frustrates me about most AI workflows is the cold start problem. Every new session you re-explain your business, your voice, your clients.
I started solving this with skill files. A skill file is a markdown document you upload to a Claude Project or paste into a Gemini Gem. It holds your context permanently so you never re-explain anything.
The three I use most:
brand-voice.md: defines tone, writing rules, and platform-specific formatting
client-router.md: when you say a client name, Claude loads their full project context automatically
seo-aeo-audit-checklist.md: structured audit that scores any website out of 100 across 7 sections including AI search visibility
Anyone else using a similar system? Curious what context you keep persistent across sessions.
