Greetings everyone! I ran into a bottleneck here and I am not quite sure how to solve it. I got some feedback from a few friends who said that the folder system works great conceptually, especially after I did a demo and answered their questions, but the biggest obstacle is having to use VSCode to manage the folders and files. They feel it is missing a much simpler interface to interact with the workspaces. I thought about building a local control panel to run the harness under the hood. I tried setting this up using OpenCode + my custom GUI, but the interface was too clunky and the user experience was terrible. A few weeks later I saw Jake’s new system and it blew my mind, it was pretty much exactly what I had been trying to achieve. Naturally, I am now thinking of building a much simpler, local, single user version with a friendlier GUI. Does anyone have a roadmap or suggestions on how to build something like this? Has anyone built a similar lightweight GUI wrapper for ICM workspaces? Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

This has come up a few times - okay more than a few times. I have seen people come here and lead with what they are not - not a developer/programmer/computer person. This is 2026 and that no longer matters. The AI portion can be taught and learned and you are in the right spot for that. Right now in 2026, being a real estate agent, a teacher, a bookkeeper, an accountant, an electrician, or even a parent is a huge advantage. Now the bigger advantage is have a specialized skill and also wanting to add an AI flavor to that skill. But that is also true of everyone who has come here. So if no one else is willing to celebrate. I am going to celebrate all or the individuals that come here with something special. But just remember, you don't have to say that you are not a developer. That part is easy now. 2 cents.

Hey Clief Notes fam! 👋 I'm Simon and I'm stoked to be here. 🙋 A little about me: I’m new to AI and all about exploring the new world. 🎯 My current goal Creating a Tax Advisor Office 2.0 in Germany 💪 What I'm currently building/working on Analysing my business, an working-processes trying to figure out where ICM an AI are most useful and then how the hell do I get it going :D 🤔 My biggest struggle or question right now: I am a Tax Advisor not a Programmer. Everything is new and I don’t know if I should try to find and hire somebody or do it myself. But it seems like fun - so I am just getting started on my own. Let's get it! 🚀

(Been here about 4 months...just going thru the Decster AI process 😁) 🙋 A little about me: By Day - Mechanical designer making systems that turn waste heat 🔥 into electricity ⚡🔌 By Night - Building my AI Consultancy 🎯 My current goal: Work withsmall businesses to develop AI solutions and workflows so the owner stops doing $15-an-hour work at 9pm. 💪 What I'm currently building/working on: AI workshops and hands-on help for Houston small businesses. The rule is: decrease the workload, not the workforce. 🤔 My biggest struggle or question right now: Getting people to find and hire me. Let's get it! 🚀

I haven’t posted in a while as I’ve been dealing with something catastrophic and trying to reconcile that. Since I was working on an older Lenovo ThinkPad T440 P and I had an HP they only had an i3 it as a file back up station, I knew I was pushing it. Well as of this last weekend, my Lenovo died and I lost everything except the backup, which is just a base file from initial setup. It’s unfortunate as well as I don’t have ways or means to replace a machine that would be capable of continuing my work at a reasonable pace. As of right now, I wish everybody the best of luck and take care of your gear and make sure it is not being worked too hard. 😭
