📘 BOARD GUIDE — Read Me First§

(pin this card at the very top of 📥 Inbox and never move or archive it)

Your personal Trello board is the entry-point to the entire Solo-Team OS:

Every Clockify timer links to a card here.
Managers and bots look only at this board for WIP, blockers, approvals and evidence.
If it isn’t on this board, it’s invisible.

No automations move cards into Q1 Doing or Q2 Scheduled — you pull work.

The boot-camp is in public-beta — Drive paths & labels may be 5-10 % out of sync with reality. When you hit a mismatch:

Logging gaps is work — track the minutes!

Open LL-01 Device & Focus-Zone Setup card in 🚀 Learning Loop.
Start a Clockify timer Setup:PhoneTG – LL-01 and install Telegram on your phone.
