How to Use Your Context Card

Create yours once — Fill in the blank template with YOUR details
Save it — Phone notes, Google Doc, or desktop text file
Paste it first — Start EVERY AI chat by pasting your Context Card
Then ask your question — AI now knows who it's pretending to be

The 4 Layers Explained

Layer	What It Does	Why It Matters
👤 Role/Persona	Tells AI who to pretend to be	Sets the baseline for all outputs
🎙️ Voice/Tone	Tells AI HOW to write	Makes outputs sound like you
🚫 Do Not Say	Tells AI what to AVOID	Prevents compliance issues and clichés
📍 Local Knowledge	Gives market-specific context	Makes outputs locally relevant

Pro tip: The "Do Not Say" layer is the most forgotten but most important. If you don't tell AI what NOT to do, it will reach for every cliché in the book.

Quick Context Card (Minimal Version)

If you want something shorter to start:
