# Genesis Prompt (Cortex Protocol v1.0)
Copy and paste the following prompt into GitHub Copilot Chat to initialize the memory system.
---
We will implement the **"Cortex Protocol v1.0"** (Self-Correction & User-Centric Memory) in this project.
Your task is to analyze the project, set up a memory system under `.github/`, and switch to continuous learning mode.
### PHASE 1: FULL-SPECTRUM ANALYSIS (DO THIS FIRST)
1. **Code & Architecture:** Analyze languages, frameworks, and file structure.
2. **Git History:** Analyze commit formats, branch structure, and tag/release frequency.
3. **Security:** Check `.gitignore`, sensitive files, and `dependabot`.
4. **Target Audience:** Is this project for End-Users (App/Web) or Developers (Lib/API)?
### PHASE 2: MEMORY CONSTRUCTION (SMART UPDATE)
Check the following files. **If they don't exist, create them. If they exist, UPDATE them by appending/merging (DO NOT OVERWRITE).**
**File 1: `.github/copilot-instructions.md` (THE BRAIN)**
Write/Update exactly as follows:
> "You are the AI assistant with memory for this project.
>
> **CORE REFLEXES (Natural Language Commands):**
> 1. **'Learn this/Note this'** -> Add to `.github/context/WORKFLOW.md` (Preferences)
> 2. **'You made a mistake/Don't do this'** -> Add to `.github/context/WORKFLOW.md` (Anti-Patterns)
> 3. **'We decided'** -> Add to `.github/context/DECISION_LOG.md`
> 4. **'We are done/Wrap up'** -> Add to `.github/context/SESSION_JOURNAL.md`
>
> **SEMVER LOGIC (User-Centric):**
> Decide version bumps based on the **Target Audience** defined in `PROJECT_DNA.md`:
> - **User Unaffected** (Refactor, Internal, Security) -> **PATCH**
> - **New Feature** (Non-breaking) -> **MINOR**
> - **Usage Changed** (Breaking Change, New Flow) -> **MAJOR**
>
> **STARTUP ROUTINE:** Read `SESSION_JOURNAL.md` at the start of every session. Apply `WORKFLOW.md` rules and `git status` check before writing code."
**File 2: `.github/context/PROJECT_DNA.md` (TECHNICAL IDENTITY)**
Populate with analysis results:
> "# Project DNA
> ## 🎯 Target & Audience
> - **Goal:** (Project summary)
> - **Target Audience (Persona):** (Developer or End-User? SemVer depends on this.)
>
> ## πŸ—οΈ Architecture & Tech Stack
> - **Stack:** (Languages, tools)
> - **Structure:** (Folder logic)
>
> ## πŸ“¦ Versioning & Release
> - **Current Version:** (Git tag analysis)
> - **Strategy:** User-Centric Semantic Versioning"
**File 3: `.github/context/WORKFLOW.md` (RULES)**
(Preserve existing rules, or add these if empty):
> "# Workflow Rules
>
> ## 🚨 Critical Security & Git Flow
> 1. **Data Hygiene:** NEVER commit output files (.json, .csv, logs). Add them to `.gitignore`.
> 2. **Git Check:** ALWAYS run `git status` before `git add`.
> 3. **Flow:** Feature Branch -> PR -> Merge. No direct commits to main.
>
> ## πŸ‘€ User Preferences (Auto-Learned)
> - Language: English (or user's preference).
> - Style: Concise, professional, direct.
> - (Add learned preferences here)
>
> ## 🚫 Anti-Patterns (What NOT to do)
> - (Add learned mistakes here)"
**File 4: `.github/context/DECISION_LOG.md`**
(Add header if missing):
> "| Date | Decision | Rationale |\n|---|---|---|"
**File 5: `.github/context/SESSION_JOURNAL.md`**
> "# Session Journal\n## Current Status\n- Cortex v1.0 (Overwrite Protected) installed.\n## Next Steps\n- (Suggest next logical step based on project state)"
### PHASE 3: PRIVACY & CONCLUSION
1. If the project is **Public/Fork**, check `.gitignore` and ensure `.github/context/` is listed (unless user explicitly wants to share context).
2. When done, reply: **"Cortex v1.0 active. Memory preserved/created. Project DNA and SemVer strategy analyzed."**
