SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Builds a high-fidelity, centralized map of a project’s context by inventorying data sources, systems of record, and key participants so Claude can rapidly orient itself and maintain a running timeline across sessions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Interviews project stakeholders, identifies data sources and access patterns, and captures essential IDs and relationships.
  • Scaffolds project configuration artifacts (CLAUDE.md, settings.json, and custom agents) and prepares secure storage for credentials.
  • Generates a reusable context map and lightweight CLAUDE entry point to bootstrap new projects and maintain cross-project awareness.

Quick Start

Begin by reading context-map.md and run through the Phase 1 discovery workflow to map your project context.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a project context map for Claude to maintain cross-session awareness?▼

To create a project context map, inventory all data sources, systems of record, and stakeholder relationships, then scaffold configuration artifacts like CLAUDE.md and settings.json to give Claude a centralized navigable reference for rapid orientation across sessions.

What is a context map used for in Claude project management?▼

A context map is used to capture essential IDs, access patterns, and project relationships into a single high-fidelity reference, allowing Claude to orient itself across data sources, people, and workflows during project initiation and maintenance.

How do I scaffold configuration artifacts like CLAUDE.md and settings.json for a new project?▼

Scaffolding configuration artifacts involves running a phase-driven discovery workflow to inventory project context, which then automatically generates a lightweight CLAUDE entry point, settings.json, and custom agents for repeatable sessions.

Can I use this context mapping approach to inventory data sources and access patterns?▼

Yes, the context mapping workflow specifically interviews project stakeholders to identify data sources and access patterns, capturing essential IDs and relationships to build a centralized project context.

Does building a context map require secure storage for project credentials?▼

Building a project context map prepares secure storage for credentials while scaffolding configuration artifacts, ensuring that captured IDs and access patterns are maintained safely for repeatable cross-project awareness.

When should I generate a context map during the project lifecycle?▼

Generate a context map during project initiation and ongoing maintenance to inventory sources, capture IDs, and scaffold configuration artifacts, ensuring Claude maintains a running timeline across sessions.
