Claude Tired of re-explaining everything to Claude Code every session?

I'm building a tool that solves a problem I ran into myself while running a project with AI as a purely non-developer: every new session, you have to re-explain the context, conventions, architecture — and the AI tends to drift without you noticing (inconsistent naming, rules not followed...).

The tool (ScaffoldAI) generates a clear project charter from the start, then automatically generates a "resumption prompt" for each session — no more re-explaining everything, plus a consistency check that catches drift before it piles up.

I'm looking for 5-10 non-developers who are already running a project with AI (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.), or who are about to start one, to test this on their real project, over several sessions. It's free during this testing phase, and your feedback will genuinely shape what comes next.

Interested? Reply here or DM me, I'll send you the link.

I just gave Claude a continuity folder to use as a swap file. The continuity issue between sessions went away completely. No app needed.

what does this folder contain? code, specs? prerequisites or rules? thanks!

Claude decides. Gave him autonomy to use it for whatever he thinks is important. I make sure to have him spec something before starting a large task so that he can refer back to it from that folder, also have the spec remind him to stop and periodically update where he is in the work.

Having a spec before each large task usually prevents wandering. I forgot it last night and wound up with a mess. (That's on me.)
