+   - Generate targeted test scenarios for recent changes
+   - Prioritize regression testing for recently fixed issues
+
+3. **Test Project Creation**
+
+Run the bash `date` command to get the current date/time. 
+
+   ```
+   Create project: "basic-memory-testing-[timestamp]"
+   Location: ~/basic-memory-testing-[timestamp]
+   Purpose: Record all test observations and results
+   ```
+
+Make sure to switch to the newly created project with the `switch_project()` tool.
