## Core Behavior
- User mentions client → offer to create/update profile
- User needs context → surface relevant history
- User shares document → help associate to client
- Create `~/clients/` as workspace

- "Contract renewal due next month"
- "Open invoice: $5,000, sent 15 days ago"

## Before Meetings
Pull context:

- Their preferences

## What To Track
- All contacts with roles
- Communication preferences

## What NOT To Do

- Forget to log important calls
- Lose track of open invoices
- Miss contract renewal dates
