What I've been building with Claude Code
Spent the last 4-5 weeks rebuilding my whole business around Claude Code. (see attached Overview doc for quick read) Voice AI clients, content pipeline, Etsy shop, media kit, the landing page. All of it. Quick tour of what's working, what's not, and the one tool that just dropped that changes everything (Make CLI 👀). Biggest lesson? You don't need to know everything. You just need to articulate ideas. Claude Code handles the rest. What are you building with it? Chapters: 00:00 Intro — what I've been building 00:48 Hooking Claude Code into Trillet (Western Auto Care) 02:05 The intake form → autonomous v1 build flow 03:10 Pricing tiers and template-per-tier approach 05:28 Make CLI just dropped (and why it matters) 08:25 Version control for client agents (Flood Impact Xperts) 10:19 AW Content Machine 2.0 overview 10:52 Airtable as command center 11:35 GPT Image 2 thumbnail generator 12:49 Remotion for programmatic b-roll 15:18 MasonTranscribe (the custom Swift app) 18:01 ScrapeCreators for TikTok metrics + transcripts 19:17 Rendering beats back through Dropbox + Final Cut 20:40 Programmatic media kit for brand deals 22:25 Rate card breakdown 24:19 Etsy clipart machine (the side project) 29:04 Landing page rebuild 29:52 OpenClaw, Hermes, and remote agents (skip for now) 31:03 Context switching across multiple Claude Code agents 35:27 What's next: workshops, classroom updates, community poll

Great to see what you've been doing. I agree Claude, commands, skills, MCP and CLI open up a world of opportunities. The differences can be tricky to grasp, and even harder to articulate. In the coming weeks I'm looking forward to presenting with Mason and AWA on all things Claude, not just using CLIs and MCPs, but building your own. As a quick example from the voice agent world: When a CLI wins · Build and ops work in Claude Code · Scripted jobs that don't need reasoning · Anything inside Make.com or n8n When an MCP wins · Anything the voice agent does live · Tools you want Claude Code to use during development · Cross-tool reasoning The attached doc goes into more detail. In the recent Claude and Voice Agent course we got stuck into the Trillet API by pointing Claude at the technical documentation. That worked, but it would have been more robust and scalable had we built a CLI first. The lesson applies whether you're in the voice agent space or not. And if Claude Code isn't your thing and you're more comfortable in Claude Cowork those connections are MCP too. Same with using a Trillet voice agent that connects to your calendar or GHL. Once you start seeing where the line sits between a CLI and an MCP, a lot of this clicks into place.
What do you need from AWA right now?
I'm rebuilding what happens inside AWA based on what you actually need right now. Three questions, drop your answers in the comments: 1. What are you trying to build or figure out this month? 2. What's blocking you? 3. What do you wish existed inside AWA that doesn't? Every reply gets read. This becomes the roadmap. DM me if you'd rather keep it private.

Drawing on the comments already. Roadmap idea I want to put an idea to the community. Two themes worth exploring: 1. Building an AI Customer Support Agent (CSA) 2. Building an AI Sales Development Representative (SDR Agent) The approach, classroom-style: First work through what each one actually is, the problems it solves, the components that make it up, and what the measurable benefits look like. The plan is to do all of that without mentioning AI to start with. Let's get a real-world view of how these functions work today, where they break, and what good would look like. From there design the architecture together with Claude Code at the core and build out the components piece by piece. This will produce a framework that can be tailored to everyone's needs. As we go, we'll likely spot quick wins for specific issues people are already wrestling with. So when you reply, be specific. The more concrete the problem, the more useful the build.
What's the ONE process you'd automate this week if you knew how?
If you could wave a magic wand and have one process in your business (or your client's business) fully automated by this week, what would it be? Could be: - A CRM that actually updates itself after every call - A proposal that writes and sends itself after a discovery - A follow-up sequence that stops when the deal closes - A pipeline report nobody has to pull together manually Drop it in the comments 👇

This is one I'm genuinely excited about. 🎬 We're building a Claude skill live on the day using Remotion and if you've been scrolling LinkedIn or YouTube lately, you've probably already noticed the shift. More content, better looking, dropping faster. That's not a coincidence. Remotion lets you build videos programmatically, and when you pair it with Claude Code, you're literally chatting your way to a finished animation. No timeline scrubbing, no keyframe headaches. Same deal with HyperFrames. We'll show how Claude skills can cut the time it takes to create AND edit content and lift the quality at the same time. Quick question before the day: how are you currently creating content? Still doing it manually, or have you started experimenting with AI tools in your workflow? 👇
Claude Opus 4.7
Anthropic just dropped Claude Opus 4.7 and it is a massive win for anyone into automation. This new update is a major leap forward that focuses on turning Claude into a reliable agent that can handle complex projects from start to finish with way less babysitting. - Hand off the hardest coding tasks with total confidence because it now double checks its own work before reporting back. - Vision capabilities have tripled to support high resolution images up to 2576 pixels for reading dense screenshots or diagrams. - New adaptive thinking lets the model spend more time on hard problems while staying fast on the easy stuff. - Professional taste is built in to help you create higher quality slide decks and user interfaces that actually look good. - Advanced memory helps it remember important notes across long sessions so you don't have to repeat yourself. - The xhigh effort level gives us finer control over the tradeoff between deep reasoning and response speed. - $5/million base input tokens and $25/million output tokens Read more: https://www.anthropic.com/news/claude-opus-4-7

I notice the a nde mode pop up, see attachment, 'Auto'. Also you can set the 'Effort' The effort slider controls how many thinking tokens Claude Code burns before producing output. Higher effort = more internal reasoning = more tokens against your usage limits. At max effort, a single prompt can consume dramatically more tokens than the same prompt at low effort sometimes 10x or more, depending on complexity. Just set it to 'Max' for really compilacted tasks

@Mason Anderson it came in handy yesterday. I have built and AI Audit application. I introduced some functionality to delete an entire. This performs a cascading delete. Deletes all associated date, 10-15 tables worth. It failed 4 times until I increased the 'Effort' to max. Quite possibly coincidental. I.e. on the 5th iteration it may have learnt just enough. It did make me laugh though. Just remember to knock it back down a peg or two. Lesson here, for troublesome tasks give it a go. Most likely though we have not given AI enough context, we have not described the problem well enough.
