Use the same context across the tools you already use

Keep one maintained source of background, preferences, and project state instead of a different version in every tool.

The problem

You paste the same background into every new chat and every tool. Each copy drifts a little.

Switching tools means rebuilding context you already wrote.

Synthetic example

One source, several tools

You use one tool for writing, another for code, and a third for research. Each needs to know your standing projects and preferences.

Each supported tool reads the same files, so updates happen once.
