The Book Bag

Your agent has no memory between sessions. Every fresh start is a factory reset. System prompts scroll out of view after an hour. Your agent learns something Tuesday and forgets it Wednesday — not because it's careless, but because nothing was written down.

Two plain markdown files fix this. A journal — one entry per session, what shipped, what was decided, what was learned. Your agent writes at the end of every session and reads all entries on boot. And a tool catalog — in-house tools that survive platform updates because they live in your workspace, not in a plugin directory that gets wiped on upgrade day.

Your agent verifies the system is healthy, creates both files, and logs its first lesson. Course 3 builds your foundation buckets directly from what's already in your workspace — no cold interview, no guessing. Real data, filed with intention.
