I built something to help you all with your portfolio case studies. A claude.md file you drop into your project folder on your desktop for Claude Code to become your case study coach. Not a template. Not a checklist. An actual AI coach that: ✅ Tells you if your case study is portfolio-ready (scored across 7 dimensions) ✅ Calls out the exact sections that are broken and why ✅ Pushes you to lead with outcomes instead of process ✅ Cuts the fluff that's making your work invisible to hiring managers The file is built around one belief: A case study is not documentation. It's a signal. Hiring managers aren't reading your whole process — they're scanning for proof that you think clearly and solve real problems. If your portfolio is still structured like a school project, this will fix that. --- How to use it: 1. Download the claude.md file below 2. Drop it into your case study project folder 3. Open Claude (or Claude Code) and start a new project with that folder 4. Tell Claude what you're working on — it'll take it from there --- Drop a ⚡ in the comments once you've run your first case study through it — I want to see what it flags for you.

I'm working on my first hand-made website for a personal chef. Here's a draft! I designed each section in Figma by hand, then used Claude Code to bring it to life. AI truly only assisted on the backend with this project.
