Leave Claude ready: Brief + Decisions, count corrections, batch review

Speed isn't the metric — corrections and tool lock-in are.

What hurt

@aaron_douglas moved Auspicious off Claude onto Grok Bot. Four lessons: (1) Brief + Decisions docs in Drive as source of truth — reading the Brief is step one of every task; (2) keep files where any AI can open them; (3) count corrections for a week, not minutes; (4) when friction drops, batch review and hard-line what can leave without you — his only auto-send is a morning brief to himself. Tip only. Not affiliated with xAI.

What to install or create

One Brief + Decisions per client → make "read Brief" step one → track correction count → batch review; only self-brief may auto-send.

Bots

  • GrokBoss (router)

    Routes requests across ~23 bots; only auto-send is a morning brief to you.

Plugins

  • None on day one. Follow the first-run steps.

Files

  • Per client: Brief (entry) + Decisions doc in Drive — tool files only point back to the Brief.

Routines

  • Morning: brief emailed only to you (only automatic send).

The prompt

This is a tip, not a pasteable system prompt. The author did not publish one. Follow the first-run steps.

First run

  1. 1Read https://x.com/aaron_douglas/status/2115582715672121698 and https://auspicious.llc/breaking-up-with-ai/ (credit @aaron_douglas).
  2. 2For one client this week: create a one-page Brief and a Decisions doc in Drive; make "read the Brief" step one of every bot task.
  3. 3Move tool-specific files so they only point back to the Brief; prefer open formats any AI can open.
  4. 4For one week, tally how often you send work back and whether the reason was already written down.
  5. 5Decide review windows and what may leave without you — keep automatic send limited (e.g. morning brief to yourself only).

Approval fence

Nothing client-facing leaves without you except the morning brief to yourself.

What to tweak

Steal Brief/Decisions + correction-count + batch-review fence.
