4. Reference: **Infrastructure Specs** (as needed)

### **Starting Fresh Session (Ceàrd - Implementation)**

1. Read: **Drift Prevention Card** (30 seconds)
2. Read: **GPT Implementation Handover** (implementation tasks)
3. Reference: **Cross-Project Tracker** (before crossing boundaries)
4. Check: **Complete Current State** (sprint status)

### **Planning Next Sprint**

1. Review: **Complete Current State** (current status)
2. Check: **Engineering Kanban** (what's in progress)
3. Reference: **Launch Decision Framework** (timing)
4. Plan: Next 3-day sprint based on priorities

### **Making Strategic Decisions**

1. Review: **Master Bootstrap** (business model, competitive position)
2. Check: **Launch Readiness Matrix** (current %)
3. Consult: **Cross-Project Tracker** (architectural constraints)
4. Decide: Launch timing, feature prioritization
