Decision Fatigue Reduction Protocol — privacy-safe setup in Claude

Long documents can sit alongside the conversation, so the rules block can be a file rather than a paste.

Stored context is a convenience. Keep a plain-text copy so the setup survives a product change.

Do this first. Put the rules in a file that sits alongside the conversation, and give the file a version marker so a behavior change can be attributed to an edit.

Do not do this. Letting the file grow. A rules document too long to read in full stops being read, and then it stops being the source of truth.

Decide in advance what does and does not go into a tool you do not control. It runs on one trigger: before the first session, not during one.

When this framework is the right one. Use it when the decisions that feel hardest are small ones, which is the usual sign that the count is the problem rather than the difficulty.

  1. List the decisions you made yesterday that you also made the day before. Those are the recurring ones.
  2. For each, write a default: what happens unless something specific overrides it.
  3. Write the override condition too, so the default is a rule rather than a rut.
  4. Re-decide only when the override condition fires, and review the defaults on a fixed schedule rather than continuously.

What to measure. A written category list: what goes in, what stays out, and where the out-of-scope material lives instead.
