Team rituals that keep craft alive

Short recurring practices so AI use stays shared, reviewed, and reversible.

Rituals beat heroics

Talent helps. Rituals scale. Prefer thirty-minute habits over heroic weekends.

Three rituals worth keeping

  1. Demo Friday - one person shows a real AI-assisted task, including what failed.
  2. Red team ten - ten minutes asking “what would a skeptic check?”
  3. Kill list - retire prompts or tools that create more cleanup than value.

Ownership

Every workflow needs a human owner. Models do not get on-call badges.
