What's up, community! This week I'm delving deeper into implementing the second brain, using Claude Code and my Obsidian. Obsidian becomes much more useful when Claude Code can read, write, organize, and act inside your vault. Obsidian is the storage layer; Claude Code is the reasoning/action layer. The system has two layers: 1. Strategy / Second Brain Layer. This is the “what should I do?” layer. It stores your broader life/work context: • goals • notes from books/videos/courses • journals • calendar/reviews • long-term direction • decisions • recurring reflections. Claude uses this layer as a thinking partner. The point is not just storing notes; it is giving Claude enough context to help you decide what matters next. 2. Project / Execution Layer: This is the “how do I do it?” layer. Each major project gets its own folder/vault where Claude Code acts more like a focused operator. It should know only the project context, constraints, files, tasks, specs, and outputs. I'll share my first results soon... I now have my VPS running Hermes and OpenClaw, and I'm connecting everything with Telegram and fine-tuning it.

In this video, I'll show you how to get started with Codex, the AI coding harness by ChatGPT. We'll cover the essential steps on how to setup Codex primarily using the command line interface, focusing on efficiently integrating this powerful ai coding assistant into your workflow.

Let's get to know each other! Comment below sharing where you are in the world, a career goal you have, and something you like to do for fun. 😊

Huge shoutout to everyone who finished the 7-Day Challenge this month and got certified. Seven days, zero to your own executive assistant in Claude Code. Step by step, from nothing to shipped. These 31 members put in the reps and walked away with a working assistant they built themselves: Robert Marshall, Gabriel Gadsden, Kamesh S., Patrick Campbell, Marianella John, Jerick Paulo, Duarte Colaco, Alessandro Waidmann, Fouad Hassanein, Nikit Raghuwanshi, Siri, Kevin Montes, Kingdavid Agbidi, Ramkesh Kumar, Aamir Mustafa, Joel Crasta, Miroslav Buso, Leoni Milano, Olga, Gautam, Muhammad Haris, Gregory Lashley, June MG, Justin Weschenfelder, Shahroz Ahmed, JoJo, Tone Glomstein, Nikkie Burns, Anurag Sinha, Kirk Shelton, Varun If you haven't started yet, the challenge is completely free and it's right here: https://www.skool.com/ai-automation-society/classroom/dda699b7?md=1be568a1864b4d999d152832656dea48 One lesson, one build, each day. By the end you'll have your own Claude Code assistant up and running. See you in the next cohort. - Nate

I've genuinely never been as productive as I am right now, and it all comes down to Claude skills. In this video, I break down everything you need to know about them, even if you've never heard of the concept or built a single skill before. I'll explain what skills actually are, why you should care about them, and exactly how they work under the hood. I'll even do a full live build of a skill from scratch so you can see the entire process in action. By the end of this video, you'll be a pro at building and using Claude Code skills.
