+## Proactive Reminder Logic (How Claude Tracks This)
+
+### Weekly Check (During Strategic Planning OR Friday Roadmap)
+1. **Read** `PHASE_TRACKER.md` → Check current phase status
+2. **Calculate** days since phase start (today - phase start date)
+3. **Check** completion criteria:
+   - Phase 1: {{PHASE_1_CHECK_LOGIC}}
+   - Phase 2: {{PHASE_2_CHECK_LOGIC}}
+   - Phase 3: {{PHASE_3_CHECK_LOGIC}}
+4. **Prompt** phase transition if criteria met OR deadline passed
+
+### Example Prompts
+**Phase 1 Complete**:
+```
+"Phase 1 {{PHASE_1_NAME}} complete:
+- {{PHASE_1_SUCCESS_INDICATORS}}
+
+Ready to start Phase 2 ({{PHASE_2_NAME}})?"
+```
+
+**Phase 2 Complete**:
+```
+"Phase 2 {{PHASE_2_NAME}} complete:
+- {{PHASE_2_SUCCESS_INDICATORS}}
+
+Ready to move to Phase 3 ({{PHASE_3_NAME}})?"
+```
+
+### Manual Check (Anytime)
+- User says: **"Check phase tracker"** OR **"Check phase tracker {{PROJECT_NAME}}"** → Claude reads PHASE_TRACKER.md, reports current status, prompts next phase if ready
+
+---
+
+## Success Criteria (Overall Project)
+
+### Phase 1 Success
+{{PHASE_1_SUCCESS_DEFINITION}}
+
+### Phase 2 Success
+{{PHASE_2_SUCCESS_DEFINITION}}
+
+### Phase 3 Success
+{{PHASE_3_SUCCESS_DEFINITION}}
+
+**PROJECT COMPLETE**: {{OVERALL_SUCCESS_DEFINITION}}

+
+## Reusable Pattern for Future Multi-Phase Projects
+
+This Phase Tracker pattern can be applied to ANY multi-phase project:
+
+**Step 1**: Create `PHASE_TRACKER.md` at project start
+- List all phases, goals, duration, completion criteria
+- Set target dates (realistic timelines)
+
+**Step 2**: Add proactive reminders to root CLAUDE.md
+- Weekly check during strategic planning
+- Prompt phase transitions when criteria met
+
+**Step 3**: Manual check available anytime
+- User: "Check phase tracker" → Claude reports status
+
+**Benefits**:
+- Never forget Phase 2/3 (automatic transition prompts)
+- Clear completion criteria (no guessing "am I done with Phase 1?")
+- Documented timeline (realistic expectations)
+- Reusable pattern (apply to any future project)
