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 #4: THE AGENCY 🏆
💰 $325 CASH 💰 That's a full year of Premium. Win this and your membership pays for itself. But the real prize this week isn't the cash. Keep reading. 📋 THE CHALLENGE You just got hired again. Meet Diana, owner of a 4-person boutique real estate team in Austin. 60-80 transactions a year, mostly residential, mix of buyers and sellers. 📎 Download the full client brief attached to this post. Short version: She doesn't want software. She wants a system she can teach her team to use in a week. Your job is to build the AI operating system for her team. This isn't one specialist. This is a small team of AI specialists organized into a multi-folder ICM architecture, with a clear handoff protocol between them. 🗂️ WHAT YOU'RE BUILDING Last week was one specialist. This week is a team of them. Required folders: 📍 00_orchestrator/ — The router. Where every request starts. Decides which specialist gets the job. 📍 01_lead_qualifier/ — First contact with new prospects. Captures intent, budget, timeline. 📍 02_property_research/ — Deep research on specific properties or neighborhoods. 📍 03_client_communication/ — Drafts emails, texts, follow-ups in the voice of the agent. 📍 04_transaction_coordinator/ — Handles the deal once it's live. Checklists, deadlines, document tracking. Each folder must include: - 📄 identity.md - 📐 rules.md - 💬 examples.md - 🔗 handoff.md (NEW for Week 4 — how does this folder pass work to another folder?) - Plus a root-level README.md explaining the architecture, the typical flow, and how to onboard a new team member. 🔥 WHY THIS ONE IS DIFFERENT Weeks 1, 2, and 3 were warmups. This is the comp where the work you ship genuinely starts to look like the real thing. The handoff protocol is the test. Anyone can build five folders. The hard part is defining what each one needs from the previous one and what it passes to the next one. That's where multi-agent systems actually live or die.

mogging claude with impeccable rizz: why *you* matter in the workflow
this post is not for advanced users of ICM. attached is a webm of how i feel every time I add something to one of my taste files. the goal of this post is to make you feel this same, special feeling. --- in 5 years everybody will be good with ai so being "good with ai" is not gonna separate you from the pack anymore, my sweet prince everybody and they momma will be able to make "the thing"" landing pages logos sales emails cute lil apps so in a world where everyone can generate "the thing"" the separator becomes taste - or rizz as we like to call it. because making the thing and making the thing beautiful are not the same this is how we define rizz now i'm not telling you to flirt with the model or prompt in a sultry tone (although i've been running some tests and this might work) i'm talking about mogging claude into understanding your tastes you need lil bro to pipe down when YOU know best and he's just along for the ride but that requires defining when you know best can you get lil fella to understand your judgment? your standards? your eye for what makes the thing go BOOM and BANG and not _BROTHER EUUUGHHGHGHGHGHG_ this is rizz in ai. everyone and they momma know the devilish details of layer 1: can it make the thing? sick. we're all at least here. hi fambly. but layer 2 is the game we're really playing with ICM: is the thing goin' BOOM and BANG or are you still going "BROTHER EUUGHGHGHGHGH" ai is an AMPLIFIER. if your judgment is mid, claude is just pushing mids faster. if your taste is undefined, kimi is helping you ship slop at scale but if your judgment is sharp - lil fella helps you make more without lowering that bar. It AMPLIFIES your judgment. either jake or boris or some legend summed it up perfectly talking about web design. if everyone can make a website with ai, designers don't go _poof_ because your cousin got sick at telling claude to make a website (your cousin is still sick tho for selling us weed in 7th grade) but REAL web designers become terrifying.

Who's here? Drop your intro.
Tell us three things: 1. What you do (job, industry, student, career-changer, whatever) 2. What brought you to Clief Notes 3. One thing you're trying to figure out right now related to computing or AI I'll respond to every single one. And read each other's intros too because the person who's stuck on the same problem as you might already be in this thread. I'll go first I am Jake, I have been working in tech for 15 Years, building with Generative AI for 3 Years straight now! Excited to teach and learn! That's it. Simple, scannable, gives you data on who's joining and what they need, and keeps the feed clear for content that retains people past week one.
