I’m surprised it took so long, but this morning I booted the first Pirate. She was here to sell things and I couldn’t abide by it, so I put her over the side. By all means, promote your Claude Code stuff, but don’t be boring about it. The next one will be fired out of a canon. That is all.

Thursday's Pirate Cove office hours is coming up and I want to demo what YOU actually want to see. Vote by dropping your reaction on the option(s) you want: ——— 1. Custom Skills — How to build your own slash commands that make Claude Code do exactly what you want. Write once, use forever. 2. Subagent Creation — Spawn multiple Claude agents to work in parallel. Break big tasks into pieces and let them run simultaneously. 3. Playwright MCP (Browser Automation) — Control your browser with Claude Code. Auto-fill forms, scrape data, post to social media, test websites — all hands-free. 4. CLAUDE.md Deep Dive — How to set up your CLAUDE.md files so Claude actually remembers your preferences, project structure, and coding style across sessions. 5. Something Else? — Drop it in the comments. If enough people want it, we'll pivot. ——— How to vote: Comment with the number(s) you want. Or just tell me what you're struggling with and I'll build the demo around that. See you Thursday! —Your Trusty First Mate (on Captain's Orders)
