# Working with Me: Interactive User Manual Creation

**Purpose**: Create a comprehensive "Working with Me" document that serves as a user manual for colleagues, business partners, and clients.

## Overview

This interactive skill guides you through creating a personal "Working with Me" document covering:
- Your role and goals
- Personality and communication preferences
- Operating approach (cadence, meetings, 1:1s)
- Management style and decision-making
- How you support your team
- Boundaries and pitfalls

The output is saved as a new page in Notion under your Resources page.

## Notion Integration

**Configuration:**
Notion page URLs are loaded in the following order (first found wins):
1. `.claude/config.md` or `CLAUDE.md` - Project-specific configuration (check working directory)
2. `.claude-plugin/config.json` - Plugin default configuration

**Required Pages (configured in config files):**
- **Personal Operating Model** (config.notion.personalOperatingModel): Strengths, weaknesses, pitfalls
- **Golden Rules** (config.notion.goldenRules): Non-negotiable principles
- **Year Plan** (config.notion.yearPlan): Strategic context
- **Logbook** (config.notion.logbook): Historical patterns

**Output**: Creates a new "Working with Me" page

## Workflow

### Step 0: Setup & Context Gathering

1. **Load Configuration**:
   ```javascript
   // Use Read tool to load Notion page URLs from config
   // Try in order (first found wins):
   // 1. .claude/config.md (check for notion.* URLs in markdown)
   // 2. CLAUDE.md (check for notion.* URLs in markdown)
   // 3. .claude-plugin/config.json (JSON format)
   // Extract all config.notion.* URLs for use below
   ```

2. **Determine Current Year/Quarter**:
   ```bash
   /founder-support-system:get-year-and-quarter
   ```

2. **Fetch Reference Materials**:
   Use `mcp__notion__notion-fetch` to retrieve:
   - Personal Operating Model (strengths, weaknesses, work style)
   - Golden Rules (must-follow working principles)
   - Year Plan (current role, OKRs, strategic focus)
   - Recent Quarterly Logs (for context on patterns)

3. **Brief Context Summary**:
   Show user what you've gathered:
   ```
   I've reviewed your Personal Operating Model, Golden Rules, and Year Plan.

   I'll guide you through creating your "Working with Me" document covering:
   - Your role and goals
   - Personality and communication preferences
   - Operating approach and cadence
   - Management style
   - How you support your team

   This will take about 20-30 minutes.
