Built a newsletter for a friend's business using Claude Code, Nano Banana for free image generation and Groq for research. Honestly pretty happy with how it came together! 💡 What clicked for me today: Two things that genuinely changed how I work using a CLAUDE.md file to give Claude clear instructions upfront, and running plan mode before executing. Both saved a ton of time and tokens. Wish I'd known this earlier! 🔧 What I'd improve next time: Being more mindful of token usage from the start. I hit the daily limits mid-flow, which was a good reminder to plan around usage caps before diving in and not after! Would love to hear from the community, any tips or strategies you use to manage token usage efficiently? Whether it's structuring prompts better, breaking tasks into smaller chunks, or anything else --- all suggestions welcome! 🙏 Huge thanks to Nate for building this classroom and community, it's made jumping in so much easier. And to everyone taking time to encourage and support others here, that means a lot. Good luck to all the newcomers joining the challenge! 💪 #AISChallenge

I built the newsletter for seven day challenge. I learnt that in gets easier as you repeat. And also even though clause does most of the work for you it’s good to understand some of the process so you give the proper guidance Excited to keep learning and building in this community!!

Understanding how CC uses MCP to obtain answers for prompt and in this case using firecrawl tools to scrape, map, crawling, extract and getting screenshots. Basically asked CC to scrape a website to obtain financing and grant information (i checked the site before i did the query and returned the exact number). Really amazed by how fast and accurate it turned out. And it took only minutes. Looking forward to day 3!

Just took a stab at it and wanted to create a newsletter based on the field i am in (instead of the agentic AI). Was better than I expected of course more improvement could've been done on the visuals and design. Looking forward to day 2.

I completed day 7 of the AIS Challenge. I built an executive assistant to perform the following tasks: create a 7-day meal plan based on weekly macro/calorie goals, then produces a categorized grocery list based on those meals. I created a skill called meal-planner to generate a meal plan for breakfast, lunch, dinner and 1 snack. With this skill, I tell it to generate the meals and grocery list based on the types of foods I eat and produce total macros for each day along with the following: total grams of protein, fats, and carbs. This was a fun challenge,
