It clicked because it addresses the core frustration of an AI losing context or claiming it doesn't know what you are talking abouT My main takeaway was that an agent can become whatever expert you need simply by reading a specific agent.md file located within a folder I'm going to implement a root router.md file that serves as a lobby directory, ensuring that if my agent ever encounters a vague prompt, it knows exactly which sub-folder to navigate to

I'm currently using AI for building small tools or web-applications that are helping in my IT Admin work (ITSM and chat bot level 1 support) and also Invoice reconciling, and right now I'm at the building structured systems stage. One thing that caught my attention from this lesson is that my lack of developer knowledge is not at all a blocker when you are following the project principles I'm excited to learn harness engineer and see how structured approaches to AI can help me build solutions to my needs and not only.

Hey Cliff community! 👋 Excited to be here. 🙋 About me: Cosmin I’m someone who enjoys learning, experimenting with new ideas, and using AI and technology to get things done more effectively. 🎯 Current goal: Keep learning, improve how I work, and turn more ideas into real outcomes. 💪 Currently working on: Exploring new tools, sharpening my workflows, and figuring out where I can create the most value. 🤔 Biggest challenge: Staying focused on the right priorities instead of trying to pursue every interesting idea at once.

This community is large and it moves fast. That's the good part and it's also the problem: valuable posts get buried, the same questions get re-asked instead of found, and spammers show up wherever there's an audience. These guidelines are what keeps the room worth showing up to. Read them once. You won't need them again, because most of this is what you'd do anyway. New here? Start with Jake's welcome post and the Foundation course. This post is about how we behave, not where to begin. 1. Build in public. Post the thing while it's half working. A half-finished build is more useful to everyone else than the polished writeup you'll never get around to, and you'll get corrected before you've spent a week going the wrong way. 2. Teach what you learn. The day you figure something out is the day you're best at explaining it, because you still remember exactly what confused you. A month later you've forgotten the hard part and your explanation gets worse. If you cracked something this week, that's a post. Nobody has to earn the right to ask a question here, but this place only works because people come back and answer them once they can. 3. Ask good questions. Specific beats polite. "How should I structure this?" gets three vague answers. "I have a 40 file client folder, the model keeps loading the wrong context file, here's my CLAUDE.md" gets a real one. Say what you tried, what happened, and what you expected instead. A more in depth guide: https://dontasktoask.com The flip side of this: "Anyone here?", "Help please", and one line questions with no context may get removed. Not to be harsh, but because nobody can answer them. 4. Give credit. If you built on someone's skill, template, folder structure or comment, tag them. It costs you nothing and it's the reason people keep publishing their work here instead of keeping it. A lot of the best material in this community started as somebody's reply on somebody else's post.
