Glad you made it in. Before you go anywhere else, work through the steps below. They will get you set up and ready to start. ✅ Introduce yourself in the comments. Tell us what you do and why you are here. ✅ Watch the Getting Started overview 📚Navigating The Course - Getting Started · Clief Notes ✅ Start with the Foundation course 0.1: Where All Of This Leads - The Foundation · Clief Notes ✅ Fill out your profile so people know who you are ✅ Join the next competition ⭐ Competitions Mega Thread - Getting Started · Clief Notes ⭐ On Competitions (and why I love them) We host a competition every two weeks. These are some of the most powerful places to learn and build here. Also Cash prices (often over $200) for the winners. Learning how to do something is one part of it. The real learning starts when you put it to work. That is what the competitions and the build sessions are for. On top of this they act as a portfolio a place to not just show us but show others (clients, bosses, your best friend) what you have been building and that you really CAN build. In order to win a competition you must be a paying member (It takes me hours to review submissions sometimes days. But if you win ONCE you can pay for a whole year of membership so I think that's only fair!) Watch the videos, then go make something.

40,000 People....I have only this to say
We just broke 40k Members, in less then 4 months... To say I am honored and blown away is an understatement. I feel like yesterday @Matthew Creamer quit his job to sleep on my floor and bust out 15 hour days to build out content, structure and anything else I thought you all would need to make this community worth it. But at the end of the day there is only one thing for me to say. THANKYOU None of this, and I mean NONE of this would be remotely worth it if it wasn't for you all. To list and tag everyone that have contributed so much valuable not just to this community but to me would be nearly impossible. Thank you to every single one of you. Thank you for commenting and helping out on posts Thank you for sharing the wins you have gotten both at home and professionally. Thank you for believing in me and what I am building septically those of you who have been around since the beginning (you know who you are). I cannot tell you how happy my heart is to get in front of you all and teach, talk, ask questions and even learn a lot myself. It is a dream come true to become someone that people can learn from; to share my thoughts and have those very thoughts change the way people live their lives and do their work. It's only the beginning too, I can't wait to see what the rest of the year has in store, and I promise to keep building, working and recording for you all. From the very very very bottom of my heart.....Thankyou! Thankyou to every single one of you reading this and for being part of such an amazing community.

🎆 THE LAST SALE EVER — HELP US GET TO VEGAS 🎆
🎯 WE READ ALL OF YOUR RESPONSES. HERE'S WHAT'S NEXT (AND A BIG ASK) A couple weeks ago we asked you what you wanted Clief Notes to become. You showed up. You wrote real, thoughtful answers, some of you wrote essays. We read every single one. Twice. So before anything else: thank you. This post is us answering you. 💬 YOU TOLD US. HERE'S WHAT WE'RE BUILDING. You said you want a clearer path from learning ICM to actually getting paid for it. → It's coming. A real learning-to-earning track, plus a talent platform we're building to connect you with people who want to hire what you can do. Heads up: the talent platform will be Premium and VIP only, one more reason to lock in below. You said competitions without feedback don't help you grow. → Fixed. Going forward, every single entrant gets tailored feedback on their build, not just the winner. We're moving to two competitions a month so we can do it right. And both monthly winners get a 30-minute call with me. You said the best builds get buried in the feed. → We're building a tagged library so you can actually find "ICM setups for solo operators" or "small team, non-coder" instead of scrolling for an hour. You said you couldn't map all the pieces, Skool, Discord, the Lyceum, ICM, what each tier unlocks. → A single orientation page is on the way. One place that breaks all of it down so nobody's lost. You said you want to connect with each other. → We hear you. Meetups, pairing, and a recorded "After Tea" hangout are on the table. South Florida alone has over 1,000 of you. Let's use that. You said we've felt spread thin. → The most honest one. You're right. We're bringing on real help to run the day-to-day so the community gets consistency, and so Matt and I can keep building the things above instead of dropping balls. You called it, and we're fixing it. 📍 QUICK NOTE ON ICM: a few of you asked for "ICM with Copilot" or "ICM with n8n, Sheets, GoHighLevel." Good news, ICM already works with any model and feeds straight into the tools you're using. It's the structure underneath all of them, not a separate thing you have to relearn per tool. If that's not landing for you, that's on us to make clearer, and we will.
Streamlining my work with Antigravity and ICM.
Oh boy, I am a happy camper . I downloaded the paper on ICM and converted that into an .md file. Just for fun I also downloaded the README.md from the github repository. Than asked Antigravity to read these two files and do an audit om my filestructure based on the information in the two .md files. It gave me excellent feedback and wrote an implementation plan to rearrange the file structure to be fully compliant, reorganized all the files and either edit or create the relevant files. He also created an agents.md file in its configuration section that tels Antigravity to read the claude.md files for instructions. After all that work I had it do an audit again and everything was OK. Including the .md file that holds the templates and file structure that i to use when I need to create a new client. It took while for this proces but now I am ready for working with this system which will save a ton of time, I expect. This of course was necessary work for the next step, which was to have Antigravity sync the complete development structure for a website, I was building for a client, from my development server to my laptop, had it do an audit on the code, made some suggestions which I accepted, Antigravity again wrote an implementation plan that I reviewed and accepted, after a few changes and then had it deploy the website environment to my hosting server . After resolving some issues the site is now in the test area. Now the only thing I need to do is refine this whole process so that I can automate these steps and have Antigravity do audits on my development work and when ready for test, deplot it directly to me test server online for the client to test. All this took me about half a day. Hours well spend, so that now the structure and procedure are there in place I can focus on development and have the rest basically automated (supervised for now). BTW I develop websites using the Django framework and python scripts and occasionally wagtail. The ICM system keeps me and Antigravity organized and I can easily do handoffs and pickups .

The project that made it click.
Magpie-Search made something click for me. I kept thinking of ICM and vector search/RAG as competing ideas, but they're not. Vector search, embeddings, and RAG were never meant to be the memory—they're the retrieval layer. ICM is the memory architecture. What's interesting is that modern LLMs already do a small version of this. They don't keep everything in context all the time—they selectively retrieve what's relevant because context is expensive. The difference is that most systems only do this when it's convenient. What if that wasn't the exception? What if it was the architecture? An ICM-first approach means memory is always organized into structured containers, and retrieval is always responsible for bringing only the relevant context forward. Instead of trying to fit everything into a giant context window, the AI continuously builds the context it actually needs. That's the part that feels like the real game changer to me. It isn't ICM or vector search/RAG. It's ICM with vector search/RAG, or even better magpie-search!
