**Created:** April 7, 2026  
**Created By:** Chronicler #66 (The Indexer) + Gemini AI

task_number: 99

## Overview

Implement Gemini's recommended workflow: separate Claude Projects for different work contexts, with Master Documents in Project Knowledge to eliminate context bloat and copy-paste overhead.

## Implementation Steps (Next Session)

### Phase 1: Create the Projects (15 min)

1. Go to claude.ai → Projects
2. Create **"Firefrost Dev"** project
   - Set default model preference note in instructions
3. Create **"Firefrost Ops"** project (may already exist — rename current?)
4. Create **"Firefrost Marketing"** project

### Phase 2: Draft Master Documents (1-2 hours)

**For Dev Project:**

```markdown
# ModpackChecker-State.md

## Current Status
- **Phase:** 5 of 11 complete
- **Blocker:** Blueprint dev mode corrupted after DB wipe
- **Recovery:** Reinstall Blueprint, restore from /root/modpackchecker_backup

## What's Built
- Phase 1: Scaffolding ✅
- Phase 2: Admin UI ✅
- Phase 3: React component ✅
- Phase 4: API controller (CurseForge/Modrinth/Technic/FTB) ✅
- Phase 5: UpdateBadge.tsx, cron command, status route (code written, not deployed) ✅

## What's Next
- Phase 6: Ignore button
- Phase 7: Backoff logic
- Phase 8-11: Docs, packaging, release

## Key Files
- /root/modpackchecker_backup (Phase 5 code)
- firefrost-services/modpack-version-checker/

## API Status
- CurseForge: Test key active, production app submitted
- Modrinth: Working
- Technic/FTB: Integrated

## Dev Panel
- URL: https://64.50.188.128
- Pterodactyl 1.12.2 + Blueprint beta-2026-01
```

**For Ops Project:**

```markdown
# Infrastructure-Manifest.md

- 2 Trinity-only
- 1 video sandbox

## Future Add-ons (Not Minecraft)
- FoundryVTT (NC1, port 30000)
- Hytale (NC1, port 5520)
```

### Phase 3: Upload to Projects (15 min)

1. Export/copy Master Docs to local files
2. Upload to each Project's Knowledge section
3. Verify Claude can reference them in new chats

### Phase 4: Update Project Instructions (30 min)

**Dev Project Instructions should include:**
- "You are working on Firefrost Gaming development tasks"
- "Default to Opus 4.6 for this project"
- "Reference the ModpackChecker-State.md for current MVC status"
- Accessibility requirements (small code blocks, one question at a time)

**Ops Project Instructions should include:**
- Current Chronicler system prompt (what we have now)
- "Default to Opus 4.5 for this project"
- Session startup protocol

**Marketing Project Instructions should include:**
- Brand voice guidelines
- "Default to Opus 4.5 for this project"
- Platform-specific formatting rules

### Phase 5: Test the Workflow (15 min)

1. Start new chat in Dev Project
2. Ask about ModpackChecker status — verify it reads from Knowledge
3. Start new chat in Ops Project  
4. Ask about server infrastructure — verify it reads from Knowledge
5. Confirm context doesn't bleed between projects

## The Micro-Session Workflow (Ongoing Practice)

Once set up, follow this loop:

1. **Pick the right Project** — Dev, Ops, or Marketing
2. **Start a NEW chat** for each task — don't extend old threads forever
3. **Work the task** — Claude has Master Docs as context automatically
4. **When context bloats** — Ask Claude to summarize, save to Google Doc, start fresh
5. **When task completes** — Ask Claude to generate updated state summary
6. **Sync Master Docs** — Update the canonical version, re-upload to Project Knowledge

## Success Criteria

- [ ] Three separate Claude Projects created (Dev, Ops, Marketing)
- [ ] Master Documents uploaded to each Project Knowledge
- [ ] Each project has appropriate instructions
- [ ] Test confirms Claude reads Project Knowledge without prompting
- [ ] No more copy-pasting the entire system prompt or architecture docs
- [ ] Model selection guidance embedded in project instructions
