Washington's Cabinet refers to the group of senior officials appointed by President George Washington to head various executive departments and advise him on important matters. Established in 1789, it included key figures like Thomas Jefferson as Secretary of State and Alexander Hamilton as Secretary of the Treasury. This advisory body laid the foundation for the modern U.S. Cabinet, emphasizing collaboration between the president and department heads in governance.
Washington worked out the procedures which would be followed by other presidents. He set up the cabinet and the government departments.

I have not heard that exact term before, but I believe what it refers to is that Washington, being the first president, had to establish the entire presidential cabinet himself, as it is not dictated in the constitution.
A Presidential Cabinet, an Assumption of Debt, Neutrality,( which includes treaties, and neutrality meaning avoiding war with Europe.)
