Welcome to Clief Notes. Here's where to start.
1. Watch the intro video and introduce yourself in the intro post here 2. Start with The Foundation (free course). Concepts, folder architecture, prompting framework. Everything else builds on this. 3. Check in at the bottom of each lesson. Polls, discussion posts, other members working through the same stuff. Use them. 4. When you're ready to build real things, move to Implementation Playbooks (Level 2). When you're ready to build your own tools, Building Your Stack (Level 3). 5. Post your work. Ask questions. Help others when you can. What are you here to build?

🏆 WEEKLY COMP #3 WINNER ....
Before I get to the who and why, I want to say this plainly. Picking a winner this round was genuinely hard. I went through every submission. Pulled repos. Read identity files. Compared rules.md sections. Every entry did real work. A lot of you shipped something I would happily use, sell, or hand a client tomorrow. I can NOT explain to you how proud I am of everyone participating in these, you make this community worth and it and there is SO much potential for the future from just ONE competition let alone future ones. 💼 That part matters more than the prize. The $325 covers a year of Premium and that's great but... The portfolio piece is the real value here. A public repo of a working folder-based AI specialist with a clean README and receipts is a resume line that hiring managers can clone and test cold in five minutes. It is also something you can charge for. If you built a specialist that solves a real problem in a real domain, you already have most of what you need to license it to a peer in your industry, sell it as a service, or package it as a Done-with-You engagement. A few quick notes on that, because most of you did not realize what you actually built and I want to Highlight a few of you: 💸 @Nicolas Patron Uriburu USD Routing Coach AR could be sold to every Argentine indie consultor I know. Same playbook works for any country with FX restrictions. Subscription service, recalibrated annually, audit-pack included. It is a product. 🔗 https://github.com/Nicopatron/usd-routing-coach-ar 🔧 @Jannetje van Leeuwen RAMS specialist is a service business in waiting. Irish signage contractors will pay for this. Same model works for any trade with a regulatory documentation burden. Plumbing, electrical, fit-out, demolition. Each one needs its own folder. 🔗 https://github.com/JannetjeIQ/rams-irish-signage-installer

The Asgardian Council
🔥 16 saves. 1 day. 3 AI voices cooking together. I'm a retired NYPD detective. Zero coding background. Yesterday I caught something nasty in my empire: one of my businesses had been silently bleeding revenue for 11 days. Pipeline running, files getting written, but the daily summary email to my partner — gone. Dark. Eleven days. I didn't catch it. My Council did. What's the Council? Three AI voices I run in parallel using Jake's file method: ⚔️ Odin — the architect. Strategy, debate, big decisions. 🗡️ Tyr — the surgeon. Line-by-line, finds bugs others miss. 🛡️ Heimdall — the watchman. Cross-tree audits, sees what's drifting. They don't agree. That's the whole point. Yesterday Heimdall flagged something off in a system I thought was healthy. Tyr cut it down to the exact file. Odin built the recovery plan. I executed in shell. Total time from "wait, what's wrong" to "fixed and verified": 4 hours. Without them? I'd have found out when my partner asked "where's my email" and I'd have spent a week figuring out why. The wild part — none of this is some custom agentic framework. No fancy orchestration layer. It's just folders and SKILL.md files. Jake's method. A folder. A markdown file telling each voice what to do. They read the same file. They argue. They ship. By the end of the session: 16 distinct catches the Council made that I would've missed alone. One catch alone saved me from losing thousands of dollars of leads and a partner relationship. Right now as I type this, the same 3 voices are autonomously building a new state scraper for me — folder method, SKILL.md driving, Codex cooking overnight. I'm going to wake up to a finished Phase 1 report. I built none of this with code I wrote. I orchestrated it with files. If a cop with no tech background can run 3 AI models like a symphony using nothing but folders and markdown — what's your excuse? Jake's method works. Receipts above. 🥷 七転び八起き
Idk how to b2b sell a flight planning agent customized for my digital nomad adventure this year
So this year I want to do a digital nomad trip from Latin America to Asia since I have some leverage of being able to work remotely as a software engineer. But I had a couple constraints, like I don't have North American visas to do flyovers there; I only want to do the long-haul trips on weekends; and also that I want to do multiple countries with an itinerary that is still not defined. So what I did was basically brainstorming, and then I thought, okay, what if I try to give Claude Code API access to another platform that scrapes flights data and filter out what I need, especially because I want to avoid to manually uncheck all the Canada and USA airports that were pre-selected in all the flights that I was looking for because I don't have those visas. And I ended up building this Claude Code session like very specific to my case considering preferences for my previous trips that I have done in the past: times to do the departure and arrival flights to avoid the jet lag, to avoid sleeping on airports, to avoid a lot of things that I already know I don't want to experience while doing such a trip. And at the end, I built something that not only scraped all the data and filtered out manually, but also advised me on routes or stopovers or changes of itinerary based on price and convenience. it managed to save me like a couple hundred dollars and idk how many hours of research for that. And I thought, how can I sell this value without having to do the whole hassle of building a platform to provide it? I've already done that mistake before and getting 0 customers. I’m thinking of selling this as a service first to travel agencies . But thats definitely a new field for me because I've never sold that kind of services. Before, I have done consulting a couple of times, but never B2B sales to agencies that plan corporate fields or these kinds of stuff. And I'm just curious about the 101 for B2B sales, what mistakes people that have already done doing this kind of ventures or a book where I can learn that, what errors have you done before that I could avoid? Any resources in this community regarding that?
