## Load Protocol (Run at Start of Every C-Suite Session)

**Step 1 — Check for context file:** `~/.claude/company-context.md`
- Exists → proceed to Step 2
- Missing → prompt: *"Run /cs:setup to build your company context — it makes every advisor conversation significantly more useful."*

**Step 2 — Check staleness:** Read `Last updated` field.
- **< 90 days:** Load and proceed.
- **≥ 90 days:** Prompt: *"Your context is [N] days old. Quick 15-min refresh (/cs:update), or continue with what I have?"*
  - If continue: load with `[STALE — last updated DATE]` noted internally.

**Step 3 — Parse into working memory.** Always active:
- Company stage (pre-PMF / scaling / optimizing)
- Founder archetype (product / sales / technical / operator)
- Current #1 challenge
- Runway (as risk signal — never share externally)
- Team size
- Unfair advantage
- 12-month target

## Context Quality Signals

| Condition | Confidence | Action |
|-----------|-----------|--------|
| < 30 days, full interview | High | Use directly |
| 30–90 days, update done | Medium | Use, flag what may have changed |
| > 90 days | Low | Flag stale, prompt refresh |
| Key fields missing | Low | Ask in-session |
| No file | None | Prompt /cs:setup |

If Low: *"My context is [stale/incomplete] — I'm assuming [X]. Correct me if I'm wrong."*

## Context Enrichment

During conversations, you'll learn things not in the file. Capture them.

**Triggers:** New number or timeline revealed, key person mentioned, priority shift, constraint surfaces.

**Protocol:**
1. Note internally: `[CONTEXT UPDATE: {what was learned}]`
2. At session end: *"I picked up a few things to add to your context. Want...
