What's Cookin' / LinkedTrust - Team Playbook

How we work together.

Core Principle: Map, Not Territory

The repo holds the map, not the territory. Projects have resources that live in external systems:

• chat - Slack, Discord, Telegram...
• tasks - GitHub Issues, Taiga, Linear...
• code - GitHub repos (often multiple)
• payments/milestones - Taiga, Notion, spreadsheets...
• deployments - demo, staging, production URLs
• docs - Google Drive, Notion, or this repo

Each project's MAIN.md points to where these live. The actual state (open tasks, recent messages, deploy status) lives in those systems. This repo holds:

• Goals, vision, intent (the "why")
• The map of where everything is (the "where")
• Context that helps humans and AI navigate (the "how")

Don't duplicate data that lives elsewhere. Point to it.
