Create a persistent, context-aware workspace in Claude Cowork by setting up a project folder and a foundational 'brain' file with your personal preferences and instructions.
On your computer's file system, create a new, empty folder to serve as the home for your project. A suggested name is Daily Operating System.
Inside your project folder, create a markdown file (e.g., brain.md) that acts as a personal instruction manual for Cowork. This file should contain your working preferences, team members, communication style, and other standing instructions.
In the Claude Cowork desktop app, create a new project from an existing folder, selecting the folder you just made. Give the project high-level instructions to define its overall purpose and connect the physical folder to the workspace.
I'm gonna use this folder and operating system to help me navigate the day-to-day life of a busy professional. You're gonna help me with some superpowers by applying some AI magic to it all.
