I don't think we've even scratched the surface of what we can do with these things. I've been delayed getting this post out because I kept coming up with new ideas to try out haha...
A chat export is a photograph. Everything that happened is in there. You cannot change the angle. The session is already over.
A constraint file is an artifact. You can enter it. The decision from three months ago is still there, still revisable. The strange thing in the corner — the edge case you deferred — is waiting to be investigated.
You named the test: can you investigate the strange thing in the corner? Most AI output fails it. The ones that survive are structured to outlast the session they were made in.
I've started to use these myself of late but didn't connect the dots on just how useful they could be. Food for thought 🤔
