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?

Two Big Drops: 20% Affiliate Program 🚀 & Lifetime VIP
Y'all have been flooding our DMs, so we're doing something we honestly weren't planning on doing. And while we're at it, we're dropping something else that's going to let you make money with us. Let's get into it. 👇 ---- 1. Lifetime VIP — $5,000 💎 We were not planning on ever introducing this. Truly. It wasn't even on the roadmap. But the amount of messages we've gotten asking "what would lifetime cost?" made us actually sit down and think about it. Here's where we landed: $5,000 for lifetime VIP access. A few things we want to be upfront about: VIP started at $47/mo. It's $97/mo now. We're not raising prices anytime soon. As the community keeps growing though, VIP will have to go up. We can only scale Jake's time so much. The $5K number factors in where VIP is heading down the road, not just where it sits today. And honestly? We don't expect anyone to actually pay this. 😅 That's the truth. We're posting this because you asked, and we'd rather give you a straight answer than dodge the question. ⚠️ Before you pull the trigger ⚠️ read this: If you're even thinking about lifetime access to us, you should probably wait. The Lyceum is coming, and Lifetime VIP is included. 🎁 The Lyceum is going to be the single biggest value drop we will ever do. By a mile. If lifetime access is what you want, it's inside the Lyceum at a better deal. Hang tight. 🔥 ---- 2. The Affiliate Program is LIVE 💰 This is the one we're most fired up about. You can now get paid for bringing people into the community. We're starting affiliates at 20% commission. 🎯 That's $5.40/mo on every Premium member you refer. $19.40/mo on every VIP member you refer. For as long as they stay a member. Recurring. Every month. Forever (or until they cancel). Here's how to grab your affiliate link: 🔗 1. Open our Skool community 2. Click the Invite button (top of the page) 3. You'll see your personal affiliate link right there 4. Copy it. Share it. Watch it work. Anyone who joins through your link gets attributed to you, and you start earning the second they pay.

This isn't a finance challenge. It's a design and voice challenge. You don't need to be a CFP to win this. Read the brief. Marcus tells you exactly what he wants and how he thinks. Your job is to build something that solves his problem and sounds like him. 🆕 If you've never built an artifact in Claude before, this is a great first one. The brief is clear, the scope is reasonable, and the bar is "would Marcus actually send this to a prospect?" 🔥 @Ian Barriopedro set the standard last week. Your turn. LFG 🚀
A completely markdown based task management system
A few people asked about my .md based task management system so sharing it here: https://github.com/rocleemusic/TaskSystem I should also mention I have my main workspace as a github repo because I work between 2 different computers at work and home, so I have a hook command, when i type /sync on a computer it pulls from github and then runs the task system. the manual call is : What's my focus for today? I'm also still tweaking the retrospective section since it's only come up once since starting to use it. There's a full breakdown and examples in the repo, feel free to ask questions or if you find something that's broken, it might be missing some context from my main Claude.md I've also included a build-instructions.md so you can give that to claude and have it built anywhere. it's large cuz it includes the schemas for the child folder files and i wanted to make it easy to use as a single file. But it was built thinking about how I would like to interact with Claude (like Jarvis). The main entry points for me are an ideas.md at root where I can throw any idea I suddenly have, and the main chat at start of session to get the 1-3 things most important to do today. It's grown a bit to include recurring tasks and flag high-priority things. The other goal was to offload the burden of remember what's important or to figure out what I have energy to do after work. I also wanted it as pure markdown incase an online service went down, I can still view the full list or just my focus, it's just a text file on my system. The thinking behind this was largely due to some realizations after watching Jake's videos. If we think of AI as a programming language, then what is it's infrastructure? What do I need to actually build a full app for something that I can describe with plain language and have AI serve as the interpretation layer to the computer below? Any workflow is really just a program codified into a step by step task list.
In Production: Are Agents Driving Workflows or Are Scripts Orchestrating Them?
Trying to sanity check how multi-step workflows are actually handled in production. The way I’m currently thinking about it: When building, it feels very agentic (using markdown like claude.md, rooms, skills, etc. to structure everything and have the AI help design the system). But in production, I’m trying to understand how control actually flows across multiple steps. Is it more like this: Option A (AI-led flow): - Trigger fires - Script collects data + relevant markdown - AI is called - AI responds and decides the next step - AI continues task-to-task from there OR Option B (Script-orchestrated flow): - Trigger fires - Script collects data + relevant markdown - AI is called for a specific task - AI returns output - Script takes that output, decides next step - Script loads new context/markdown - Script calls AI again (and this repeats for each step) So basically: 👉 Is the AI “driving” the workflow once triggered 👉 Or are scripts orchestrating each step and calling AI as needed Feels like it might be more B or somewhere in the middle, but not sure what’s actually best practice. Would love to know how others are structuring this in real systems.
