💰 $500 CASH 💰 Win this and you've covered a year of Premium with $175 left over. 📋 THE CHALLENGE Build a folder-based AI coach for a specific domain. You pick the domain. This week's deliverable is one coach folder that someone could drop into a Claude project and use as their personal coach for whatever you've built it for. 🎯 PICK YOUR DOMAIN The domain is yours. Pick something specific. Pick something you'd actually use. A few sparks to get you thinking: - 🎤 Public speaking coach for new managers giving their first big presentations - 💼 Salary negotiation coach for tech workers at Series A startups - 📞 Cold call coach for first-year SDRs in B2B software - 🎯 Interview prep coach for product manager roles - ✍️ Writing coach for one specific genre (sci-fi short stories, college essays, op-eds) - 🏋️ Fitness form coach for one movement (squat, deadlift, golf swing) - 🌍 Language learning coach for one use case (medical Spanish, business Mandarin) - ♟️ Chess coach for one specific opening or endgame pattern - ⚽ Youth athletics coach for one sport and age group The more specific, the better. "Life coach" is too broad. "Salary negotiation coach for tech workers at Series A startups" is right. 🗂️ THE METHODOLOGY If this is your first comp, welcome. Here's what you need to know: This week (and every week) you're learning the foundation of interpretable context methodology. Folders as architecture. Each file does one job well. Your coach is a folder with five things: - 📄 identity.md (who the coach is) - 📐 rules.md (how they coach) - 💬 examples.md (what good looks like) - 📚 reference/ (frameworks, drills, source material) - 📖 README.md (how to use it) Drop the folder into a Claude project. Claude becomes the coach. Reusable. Shareable. Portable. 🔥 THE ANGLE THIS WEEK A coach is NOT a knowledge base. A coach gives feedback. Pushes back. Asks better questions. Holds people accountable.

Alright, I need to run something by you all. Jake and I have been talking about building something bigger. Not just more content. Something structured. Something with real accountability. Something for anyone who wants to actually build with AI, whether you joined this community yesterday or you've been here from the start. Here's what we're considering: The Lyceum — the original Lyceum was started in ancient Greece and known as the first school of Aristotle. Ours is a 12-week program with live instruction from Jake and other AI instructors from Eduba. Small cohorts. Real projects. You'd be building something from week one, not just watching tutorials. We're thinking three different tracks: - Technical — for developers, engineers, people building tools and systems - Business — for ops people, managers, founders, consultants who need to direct AI work without necessarily writing code - Creator — for content creators, marketers, educators, solo operators building their own production systems Same core methodology across all three. Different emphasis based on what you're actually trying to do. And here's where it gets interesting. We're thinking about making it a competition. A grand champion who gets a $100K build from Eduba. First, second, third place for each cohort. Demo day at the end where people present what they built. We'd also be issuing Eduba's first-ever certification. Something backed by the same methodology we've used to train Fortune 500 teams. This is still in the planning phase. We haven't finalized everything yet. But before we lock it in, I want to hear from you. Does this sound like something you'd actually want? Drop a comment. Tell me what excites you. Tell me what concerns you. Ask questions. If there's something you'd want to see included, let me know. More details coming soon! Eduba Case Studies: https://services.eduba.io/#cases

💰 $325 CASH 💰 That's a full year of Premium. Win this and your membership pays for itself. But the real prize this week isn't the cash. Keep reading. 📋 THE CHALLENGE You just got hired again. Meet Diana, owner of a 4-person boutique real estate team in Austin. 60-80 transactions a year, mostly residential, mix of buyers and sellers. 📎 Download the full client brief attached to this post. Short version: She doesn't want software. She wants a system she can teach her team to use in a week. Your job is to build the AI operating system for her team. This isn't one specialist. This is a small team of AI specialists organized into a multi-folder ICM architecture, with a clear handoff protocol between them. 🗂️ WHAT YOU'RE BUILDING Last week was one specialist. This week is a team of them. Required folders: 📍 00_orchestrator/ — The router. Where every request starts. Decides which specialist gets the job. 📍 01_lead_qualifier/ — First contact with new prospects. Captures intent, budget, timeline. 📍 02_property_research/ — Deep research on specific properties or neighborhoods. 📍 03_client_communication/ — Drafts emails, texts, follow-ups in the voice of the agent. 📍 04_transaction_coordinator/ — Handles the deal once it's live. Checklists, deadlines, document tracking. Each folder must include: - 📄 identity.md - 📐 rules.md - 💬 examples.md - 🔗 handoff.md (NEW for Week 4 — how does this folder pass work to another folder?) - Plus a root-level README.md explaining the architecture, the typical flow, and how to onboard a new team member. 🔥 WHY THIS ONE IS DIFFERENT Weeks 1, 2, and 3 were warmups. This is the comp where the work you ship genuinely starts to look like the real thing. The handoff protocol is the test. Anyone can build five folders. The hard part is defining what each one needs from the previous one and what it passes to the next one. That's where multi-agent systems actually live or die.

Are you using desktop or browser? both? Free or a paid version? What have you used it for? I’ll go first….

Before I get to the who and why, I want to say this plainly. Picking a winner this round was genuinely hard. I went through every submission. Pulled repos. Read identity files. Compared rules.md sections. Every entry did real work. A lot of you shipped something I would happily use, sell, or hand a client tomorrow. I can NOT explain to you how proud I am of everyone participating in these, you make this community worth and it and there is SO much potential for the future from just ONE competition let alone future ones. 💼 That part matters more than the prize. The $325 covers a year of Premium and that's great but... The portfolio piece is the real value here. A public repo of a working folder-based AI specialist with a clean README and receipts is a resume line that hiring managers can clone and test cold in five minutes. It is also something you can charge for. If you built a specialist that solves a real problem in a real domain, you already have most of what you need to license it to a peer in your industry, sell it as a service, or package it as a Done-with-You engagement. A few quick notes on that, because most of you did not realize what you actually built and I want to Highlight a few of you: 💸 @Nicolas Patron Uriburu USD Routing Coach AR could be sold to every Argentine indie consultor I know. Same playbook works for any country with FX restrictions. Subscription service, recalibrated annually, audit-pack included. It is a product. 🔗 https://github.com/Nicopatron/usd-routing-coach-ar 🔧 @Jannetje van Leeuwen RAMS specialist is a service business in waiting. Irish signage contractors will pay for this. Same model works for any trade with a regulatory documentation burden. Plumbing, electrical, fit-out, demolition. Each one needs its own folder. 🔗 https://github.com/JannetjeIQ/rams-irish-signage-installer
