Pinned context: the memory that sticks across every chat.

## The problem pinned context solves

Every AI chat tool has the same problem: you have to re-establish context at the start of every conversation. If you're using a project AI chat to dig into your boards, you'd normally have to repeat yourself every session — "This is a product team, we work in two-week sprints, our stack is React + Go, our key constraint is the April 15 launch date..."

Pinned context eliminates that re-introduction. You write it once, pin it to the project, and BoardSnap AI knows it in every subsequent chat without you having to say it again.

## What to pin

Pinned context works best for standing facts about the project:

• Team composition — who's on the team, their roles
• Project constraints — budget, timeline, tech stack decisions, non-negotiables
• OKRs or goals — what the team is trying to achieve this quarter
• Client background — for consultants, the client's industry, company size, and what they care about
• Brand voice notes — tone guidance, terminology preferences
• Recurring meeting structure — how your standups, retros, or planning sessions are organized

## What pinned context is not

It's not a dump of everything you know. It's standing, stable information that's true across many boards in the project. Per-board output (the summary of today's meeting) belongs in the board itself — not in pinned context.

## How it works with AI chat

When you open a project AI chat about any board, BoardSnap automatically prepends the pinned context to the conversation. The AI reads it as background before it reads your message. Your question about "the launch timeline" gets answered in the context of the launch date you pinned — not as an abstract question.

## Editing and unpinning

You can edit or unpin any note at any time. Changes take effect in the next AI chat session.
