For every new addition request mid-project, apply one rule: it enters in exchange for something leaving, or waits for the next release.

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).

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.
