Before any project starts, write a one-page charter answering six core questions.

Compress any project into one page: why, what, who, when, success looks like...

Classify every commitment: fixed (must), negotiable (should), optional (could).

For tasks under two weeks, a three-line charter instead of the full page — same protection, less friction.

When an LLM helps you with content you publish or send, disclose it clearly.

Before using any reference or quote AI cites (book title, article, study), verify it actually exists before citing it publicly.
