Either these guys have been talking, or they just independently arrived at the same architecture! He describes a local-first, folder-based "Room", with a routing table as the first entry point... This is awesome validation that this is the way forward!

💰 $500 CASH 💰 Win this and you've covered a year of Premium with $175 left over. 📋 THE CHALLENGE Build a folder-based AI coach for a specific domain. You pick the domain. This week's deliverable is one coach folder that someone could drop into a Claude project and use as their personal coach for whatever you've built it for. 🎯 PICK YOUR DOMAIN The domain is yours. Pick something specific. Pick something you'd actually use. A few sparks to get you thinking: - 🎤 Public speaking coach for new managers giving their first big presentations - 💼 Salary negotiation coach for tech workers at Series A startups - 📞 Cold call coach for first-year SDRs in B2B software - 🎯 Interview prep coach for product manager roles - ✍️ Writing coach for one specific genre (sci-fi short stories, college essays, op-eds) - 🏋️ Fitness form coach for one movement (squat, deadlift, golf swing) - 🌍 Language learning coach for one use case (medical Spanish, business Mandarin) - ♟️ Chess coach for one specific opening or endgame pattern - ⚽ Youth athletics coach for one sport and age group The more specific, the better. "Life coach" is too broad. "Salary negotiation coach for tech workers at Series A startups" is right. 🗂️ THE METHODOLOGY If this is your first comp, welcome. Here's what you need to know: This week (and every week) you're learning the foundation of interpretable context methodology. Folders as architecture. Each file does one job well. Your coach is a folder with five things: - 📄 identity.md (who the coach is) - 📐 rules.md (how they coach) - 💬 examples.md (what good looks like) - 📚 reference/ (frameworks, drills, source material) - 📖 README.md (how to use it) Drop the folder into a Claude project. Claude becomes the coach. Reusable. Shareable. Portable. 🔥 THE ANGLE THIS WEEK A coach is NOT a knowledge base. A coach gives feedback. Pushes back. Asks better questions. Holds people accountable.

You learned the framework. Now try it on something you're actually working on. Vote below, then drop your prompt structure in the comments. Not the output. The structure. Show us how you set it up.

Tell us three things: 1. What you do (job, industry, student, career-changer, whatever) 2. What brought you to Clief Notes 3. One thing you're trying to figure out right now related to computing or AI I'll respond to every single one. And read each other's intros too because the person who's stuck on the same problem as you might already be in this thread. I'll go first I am Jake, I have been working in tech for 15 Years, building with Generative AI for 3 Years straight now! Excited to teach and learn! That's it. Simple, scannable, gives you data on who's joining and what they need, and keeps the feed clear for content that retains people past week one.
