The reading tool
Ask the work.
Put a question to the whole body of writing at once. The tool reads across every essay, answers from what’s there, and shows its sources.

How it works
01
Ask a question
In your own words — a real question you’re turning over, not a search term.
02
It finds what bears on it
Searches the full corpus for the essays and passages actually relevant — not just keyword matches.
03
Answers, with sources
A direct answer drawn from the writing, with the essays it used named so you can go read them.
Questions worth asking it
Before you open it
The engine bills your own Claude session and asks your consent the first time you use it — this is Reggie’s writing, read through your account, not a hosted chatbot. If a question falls outside these 36 essays, it will tell you rather than invent an answer.
