Every AI session starts from zero. Mine doesn't.

The first thing I do in every Claude Code session is the same thing I’d do if I woke up with amnesia in my own office. Where am I? What branch? What did I ship yesterday? What tickets moved overnight? Did someone create a new workflow I haven’t seen? Is there a live patch on the cluster that never made it into terraform?

The model doesn’t know any of this. Every session starts from zero. The context window is empty. The handoff docs exist but nobody reads them unless you make it a rule. The Jira board changed while you were asleep. The teammate who was blocked yesterday merged a PR at 3am and now the branch you were working on has conflicts.

In January, Claude Code was generating so many artifacts that my main project’s docs/ directory was filling up with plans and handoffs from multiple orgs, multiple projects, and multiple dates. I sketched a Hive partition scheme — org/project/dt=YYYY-MM-DD/ — to tame the mess. I never built it.

The plan singleton problem came later and turned out to be worse. Claude Code’s plan mode stores one plan per session. Switch workstreams and the old plan haunts you. Start a new plan and the old one gets destroyed. No amount of directory structure fixes that — the singleton lives inside the session, not on disk. Both problems grow from the same root: AI coding tools assume you’re doing one thing at a time.
