START WITH AN IDEA
One idea.
One useful next step.
Make a short brief, then take it to your dot.
No account setup. No app connection.
This page keeps nothing after you close or reload it. Copy or download your brief to keep it. Nothing you type is uploaded.
- 01
Say what you want to make.
Describe an outcome you’d recognize: a one-minute film plan, a useful page, a clearer set of notes.
- 02
Choose one small result.
Start with a plan, outline or prototype. Add links to work you already have, and choose where the result should go.
- 03
Take the brief to your dot.
Ask your dot to help prepare the work with the tools actually available. Review the next action. Any Codex build, access, spending or publication needs its own approval.
Already have a project?
Use its existing home and source owner. You don’t need to move your work or set up a new System to use this guide.
YOUR FIRST BRIEF

Your brief is ready.
Copy or download it, then open your conversation with your dot. No task has been launched.

That’s a separate, optional guide for people who want the broader repository-and-Surface setup. It isn’t needed for this first brief.
