Congratulations to @Bryson Bossley , pulling insane numbers on the weekly leaderboard. One of our OG's here at Clief Notes. Since Bryson already has Lifetime VIP, he gets a 30 minute 1-on-1 with Jake! ⏰ The 7-day clock resets. Next Monday someone new takes the top spot. 🎯 How it works: - 📝 Post things worth reading - 💬 Help people in the comments - 🛠️ Share what you're building, what's working, what's breaking - ❤️ Engage with what others are putting out there The leaderboard tracks all of it.

My biggest takeaway from @iscalelabs was how complex AI agent frameworks can be simplified into a well-organized folder system with Markdown files. Instead of constantly feeding AI massive prompts and repeating context, we can use a central AGENTS.md file as a map that directs the AI to the right folders, instructions, and skills. This creates a single source of truth, reduces unnecessary token usage, and makes the system easier to maintain and reuse across different AI models. What really made it click was the demonstration where an agent navigated through multiple folders and instruction files to complete a task without needing the entire workflow explained in the initial prompt. It showed how powerful simple file-based instructions can be. I'm currently building AI-powered workflows using Codex on my VPS, and this is exactly the approach I want to implement. My goal is to create a structured, reusable system where agents can navigate projects, access only relevant context, and pick up where previous sessions left off. The biggest realization: smarter AI systems don't necessarily require more complex frameworks. Sometimes better organization is the real game changer.

Over the past few days, I’ve had some fascinating conversations here in this community, including a private chat with @Bryson Bossley . Those conversations got me thinking. And last night, I couldn’t stop thinking. One thought led to another. Ideas connected. Questions became bigger. And somehow, I ended up writing a speech and turning it into a video. So please, WATCH THE VIDEO FIRST. And if you recognize yourself in what I’m saying, if something in that message resonates with you… Come back and read this. ——— What Can We Build Together? 50,000 minds. Thousands of skills. Countless ideas. And yet… most of us are still trying to succeed alone. Think about that for a moment. What if the greatest opportunity in this community isn’t the next AI tool, another course, or another business? What if it’s the person reading this right now? Someone here might have exactly the knowledge you’re missing. Someone else might need exactly what you already know. And the strange thing is… Neither of you even knows the other exists. Isn’t that a tremendous waste of potential? I made this video because I believe we’re overlooking something extraordinary. It’s not another tutorial. It’s not a sales pitch. It’s a question we should all be asking ourselves. What could we achieve if we stopped trying to do everything alone and started combining what we’re already good at? Maybe we don’t need another thousand ideas. Maybe we need to connect the people who can bring them to life. And maybe it starts right here. Not with another complicated system. Not with another promise of success. But with people discovering each other. So let me ask you three simple questions. 1. What are you genuinely good at? 2. What do you need help with? 3. What would you build with others? Don’t overthink your answers. You don’t need to impress anyone. You don’t need to sell yourself. Just be yourself. Because somewhere among the people reading this, someone might have exactly the missing piece you’ve been searching for.

I just saw a YouTube video that discussed the death of MD Files, arguing that HTML files are the better way to go. Wanted to get the community ‘s thoughts on this and how it would impact ICM approach, if at all. Thanks

Hi everyone! I just wanted to share that my website for my ebook and audiobook is finally live and done! It has been sitting on the back burner for a few months and now I finally set time of to finish it! I am really happy with it and it is created using ICM and Claude code. https://www.thewheelofclarity.com/
