FAQPage Schema
How do I onboard new developers to an AI-assisted workflow?

Onboard new developers by running a guided three-part process covering core AI memory concepts, real-world workflow examples, and project-specific guideline customization to ensure alignment.

What is context drift and how does an AI workflow handle it?

Context drift occurs when an AI loses project-specific knowledge during a session. This workflow handles it through memory restoration and ongoing check-and-record mechanisms that maintain alignment.

How do I set up project-specific guidelines for an AI workflow?

Set up project-specific guidelines by evaluating and filling configuration files in the `.trellis/spec/` directory, then learning how to update them to maintain specialized knowledge injection.

Can existing engineers use this onboarding to understand the system structure?

Yes, existing engineers can use the onboarding to understand the system structure through command deep-dives and real-world workflow examples, restoring their memory of core project philosophy.

What are the limitations of using a guided onboarding checklist for AI memory?

The guided onboarding checklist requires completion of all three parts, including manual guideline customization in `.trellis/spec/`, to effectively prevent context drift and maintain session alignment.
