Context Passport

Context Passport

Maintain user and project context across Claude sessions via a structured GitHub-hosted document.

Core Components

1. The Passport (PASSPORT.md)

Token-efficient markdown in user's GitHub repo. See references/passport-template.md.

Sections:

• Identity: Name, timezone, communication preferences
• Brain Manual: ADHD accommodations, learning style, energy patterns
• Active Projects: Current focus, phase, blockers
• Context Stack: Recent decisions, open questions, where we left off
• Don't Make Me Repeat: Facts explained too many times

2. Session Summary

Run scripts/session-summary.py on conversation exports to extract updates.

3. Quick-Start Prompt

User pastes at session start: "Read my Context Passport at [URL] and continue where we left off."

Workflows

Creating a New Passport

1. Read references/passport-template.md
2. Interview user for core info (max 5 questions)
3. Generate PASSPORT.md
4. User commits to repo

End-of-Session Update

1. Export conversation (JSON preferred)
2. Run session-summary.py
3. Append to Context Stack
4. Commit changes

Resuming with Context

1. User provides passport URL or content
2. Acknowledge context without restating
3. Continue from Context Stack

Design Principles

• Token-efficient: Passport under 500 words
• Low-friction: 2-min end-of-session ritual max
• Accountability: Git history shows evolution
