Let your AI assistant follow instructions stored on GitHub

Your AI assistant looks up the right written instructions from your GitHub library before completing each task.

How the work actually flows

A straight line.

The problem it solves

As you ask your AI assistant to handle more kinds of tasks, cramming every rule into one giant prompt gets messy and unreliable. It's hard to update instructions for one task without risking others, and nobody's confident the assistant is following the latest version.

Who it fits

A team building an internal AI assistant that needs to follow different documented steps for different tasks.

How it works

  1. Someone sends a message in chat
  2. The system builds a map of instruction files stored in a document library
  3. The AI assistant browses that map to find the file matching the request
  4. It reads the file's instructions and follows the steps
  5. It replies having completed the task the documented way
What you get

Tasks completed the documented way

Your AI assistant automatically finds and follows the right written instructions for each task your team gives it.

What you get

A chat reply where the AI has followed your team's documented step-by-step instructions.

What you need

A GitHub account and an OpenRouter or OpenAI API key.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
