Quick Reference Card
Status: Complete · The whole framework on one printable page. Pin it above your desk.
A single-page summary of the SAE Framework — the First Principles, the personas, the operating loop, the five non-negotiables, the four metrics, and the Zero-Ops stack. For the full one-page navigational summary with links, see Framework at a Glance.
Print it. Open the card SVG directly and print to PDF or paper — it's vector, so it stays crisp at any size. A team adopting the practices can put it on the wall; a solo operator can keep it next to the keyboard.
Reality check. A card is a mnemonic, not the method. It will remind you that the writer never judges its own work — it cannot make you stand up the fresh-context Guardian when you're tired and the deadline is close. The discipline lives in the doing.
