Start where you are
“I'm starting from zero”
Eight chapters mapped to a 90-day path. Foundations first, tokens before themes, governance before headcount. Practitioner voice, no theory.
“I need to pick what to build on”
Five team shapes, five concrete recommendations, the anti-patterns to avoid, and the shifts since 2023 that changed the answer.
“I'm trying to drive adoption”
The hard part isn't building it — it's getting other teams to ship on it. The distribution mechanics, the funnel from discovery to maintenance.
“I'm making ours AI-ready”
The 2026 wedge: how to expose your tokens, components, and patterns to Cursor, Claude Code, and v0 without drift. Three pillars, a readiness checklist, and a 1-week migration plan.
