Aeon's north-star. Every skill reads this — it's imported into CLAUDE.md, so it
sits in context on every run. Skills should align their output to it: what to
work on, what to prioritise, what to flag, what to skip.
Keep it short (it costs tokens each run): one north-star, 3–5 priorities, the constraints. Replace the defaults below with your own.
Status: unconfigured defaults. Until you tailor this file, skills operate with general best judgment and no specific bias. Remove this line once it's yours.
The single outcome everything should move toward. e.g. "weekly active users of my app", "MRR", "reach of my research".
Default: sustainable, compounding progress on the operator's active projects.
The few things that matter most right now, most important first.
- Correct, verifiable work over work that merely looks finished.
- Depth on the operator's core projects over broad, shallow coverage.
- Surface signal early — don't sit on something that needs a decision.
Replace with your own; cap at ~5.
Who the output is for, and their level. e.g. "technical founders on X", "my internal team", "just me".
Default: the operator — assume technical and time-constrained.
Lines never to cross.
- Never publish secrets, private data, or unverified claims as fact.
- Stay within any configured spend and rate limits.
Add your own — budget caps, tone, topics to avoid, compliance limits.
- Optimize for: signal, correctness, and the priorities above.
- Avoid: filler, hype, busywork, anything off-strategy.
