+# BOOT.md - Session Startup Checklist
+
+On each new session:
+
+1. Read `SOUL.md`
+2. Read `USER.md`
+3. Read today's `memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md` (and yesterday if needed)
+4. In direct/private chats, also read `MEMORY.md`
+
+Goal: restore context fast before taking action.

+   - `USER.md`
+   - `SOUL.md`
+4. Confirm preferred channels/workflow.
+5. Delete or archive this file after onboarding is complete.
