🏆 HOW COMPETITIONS WORK FROM NOW ON 🏆
Quick update on the competition schedule so everyone knows what to expect. 📅 NEW CADENCE: TWICE A MONTH We're dropping comps on the 15th and the 30th of every month. Two chances to compete, every month, on a set schedule you can plan around. ✍️ WHY THIS SCHEDULE Spacing them out this way means we can give tailored feedback on every single submission. Not just the winners. Everyone who enters gets notes on what worked, where it's weak, and what to do next. 🎁 WHAT WINNERS GET Along with the prize, every winner gets a 15-minute one-on-one with Jake. Use it to talk through your build, ask questions, or bring whatever else is on your mind. Two comps a month. Feedback on every entry. Direct time with Jake for the winners. Mark your calendar for the 15th and let's get to work!

ICM on enterprise level - introducing Taurus
Folders, not frameworks: how Taurus makes Claude repeatable for a whole team Giving an AI agent the right context at the right moment is still the hardest part of using coding agents like Claude Code in real, daily work. We've all felt it: the agent is brilliant when it knows where it is, and frustrating when it doesn't. So how do you give it that context — reliably, for more than one person? A small team will work but what happens when you try to on-board 100+ people? The popular answers don't scale. Elaborate memory systems help a single power user, but in an enterprise they become a liability: they're hard to curate, easy to pollute, and brittle the moment you add more people and more projects. And anything built around one person's bespoke setup — their servers, their wiring, their mental model — is expensive to onboard a whole team onto. Honestly, the wheel hasn't been invented yet. Nobody has a clean, proven answer for how context should work at enterprise scale. This is where the Interpreted Context Methodology (ICM) changes the conversation. Its core idea is deceptively simple: folder structure as agent architecture. Instead of orchestration code or a sprawling memory store, the context lives in the folders themselves. A workspace is just numbered folders for each stage, with markdown files (CLAUDE.md, conventions, reference material, working artifacts) that load in layers when an agent starts there. The agent reads downward and stops when it has enough — typically 2–8k tokens instead of 30–50k. You "configure the factory, not the product": set the workspace up once, then every run reuses it with new inputs. Outputs are plain text, editable, reviewable at every step. ICM is elegant because it's filesystem-native and human-readable — a non-developer can reshape a workflow by moving files. But it has one practical dependency that's easy to overlook: When you add more and more folders agents begin to skip information. Guidelines are missed, rules are overlooked. What worked for one person doesn't work for another because the model scans economically and thinks it knows enough. The solution is again simple, the agent has to actually start in the right folder. Start in a central place and the layered context never loads; start in the right place and the agent is instantly grounded. In a team, "just cd to the correct directory" is exactly the kind of invisible, error-prone step that breaks repeatability.
I built a custom browser extension to browse CliefNotes
Browsing on Skool can be a bit overwhelming with it's UI (my eyes need a dark theme) and the great volume of stuff on CliefNotes makes jumping in daunting, especially if you're away for more than a day, so I wanted something that made browsing feel effortless and easier to navigate and see things and keep posts around that I wanted to dig into a bit more. So I built a browser extension that gives me a faster, cleaner view over the same Skool feed, posts, and comments. The catch: I don't know web code. I don't know APIs. But I've learned that knowing what I *don't* know is exactly where AI earns its keep. I know how to troubleshoot — so I can tell it what's happening, what's breaking, what information I need next — and it hands me the technical roadmap I don't have. I wasn't writing this thing so much as steering it. The part that nearly broke me was comments. A post with over 100 replies would render only 50, and I couldn't see why — Claude almost threw in the towel but I persisted because one thing I've learned working Game Dev is that if you can see something on the screen then that data exsists somewhere, you just have to figure out where to look. The takeway I want to flag is to think about pointing AI at your pain points, the best things to come out of using ai for me have been asking "What if?" And a lot of the amazing things people have created in here follow the same pattern. I also want to highlight this post by @Jason Jennings : https://www.skool.com/cliefnotes/sortable-posts-clief-notes-sidebar-easy-copypaste I was in the middle of my build when I came across it and I folded some of the sorting options into the extension because I thought they were great I built it to be shared — open source, free, and I'll keep updating as I go, genuinely open to suggestions. Only caveat is it can only do what Skool's API allows. Also I use Firefox mainly and it's easier to sign a native browser extension for firefox so you can install directly using the .xpi link in my repo, for Chrome you'll have to download the .zip and in Chrome set it to developer mode and you can sideload an unpacked extension (instructions should also be in the zip).

I Filmed the Machine Instead of Drawing It
There's a fun thing going around lately — everyone's pulling back the curtain on their "content machine." So I did a simialr thing and filmed mine. 2 (out of 4 on my YouTube channel) short clips below. This is where my work has taken me - I organized a content machine in a way and I call it 'The Quiet AI.' No narration, no clever edits to make it look smarter than it is. Just the thing working, in order. A couple of things worth noticing: - No part of this is trying to be impressive. It does one job and stays out of its own way. - There's a checking step, not just a generating step. That's the part most "machines" skip — and it's the part that decides whether the output is usable or just fast. I'm not going to tell you it's magic. Yet it sure feels llke it at times :) It's a small system that does its job well and quietly — which is sort of the whole point of the name.
