# Codex-ready project brief excerpt

Use this short pattern when you do not want to send one giant "build it all" prompt, but want to give the model a useful working frame.

```text
Goal:
I want to build a simple personal publishing surface together with AI.

First version:
- readable homepage;
- article page;
- tags;
- search;
- minimal admin;
- attached images and downloadable files.

Not now:
- do not build a large CMS;
- do not make it a dashboard;
- do not turn it into a marketing landing page;
- do not introduce unnecessary frameworks;
- do not add features that do not help writing, reading, or publishing.

Design:
Dark, calm, editorial blog. A few blue accents. Plenty of whitespace. Not a portal.

Working mode:
Read the goals first, then propose structure. Write code only when the scope is clear.
