Meet Sarah, a freelance copywriter who's drowning in context-switching. 📎 Download the full client brief attached to this post. Short version: She works with three types of clients (SaaS founders, ecommerce brands, local service businesses) and starts from scratch every project. She doesn't need another tool. She needs a system. Your job is to build her a folder-based AI specialist she can drop into any Claude project. The folder IS the deliverable. 🗂️ THIS WEEK YOU LEARN ICM Up until now, comps have been "build a thing." This week you utilize the methodology taught throughout the community. 🧠 Folders as architecture. That's it. That's the whole concept this week. Your specialist is a folder with five things: - 📄 identity.md (who they are) - 📐 rules.md (how they respond) - 💬 examples.md (what good looks like) - 📚 reference/ (source material) - 📖 README.md (how to use it) Drop the folder into a Claude project. Claude becomes the specialist. Reusable. Shareable. Portable. 🎯 PICK YOUR SPECIALIST Don't pick copywriting. That's Sarah's example. Pick something YOU would actually use. A few sparks to get you thinking: - A salary negotiation coach - A meal planner that knows your dietary restrictions - A code reviewer for your stack - A real estate market analyst for your city - A technical recruiter screener - A grant writer for nonprofits in your space The more specific, the better. "Marketing expert" is not a specialist. "B2B email expert for enterprise SaaS targeting CFOs" is. 💼 WHY THIS ONE LANDS ON YOUR RESUME Real talk. Winning a comp in a Skool community doesn't get you a job by itself. But shipping a working folder-based AI specialist with a clean README and a public repo? That's a portfolio piece.

This was such a challenge. I had a idea for a hero landing page design but it was not coming together as I hoped. It got to the point where i was using GEMINI, CLAUDE and CODEX to "just get something close it". Alot of back and forth prompting, folder structure fell apart the first time. I just had to keep engineering it. Tried it forward and reverse engineering it. I was patient but very persistent. I COULD HAVE BEEEN BETTER ORGANIZING AND STRUCTURING MY FOLDERS. It seemed like there was no hope. It seemed no matter how good i got them, the design was just odd, not as direct and very confusing. WHAT DID THIS DO....? ACTUALLY, it inspired me to create my own tools and workflow systems so my designs can manifest exactly how i please and i can have more control of the details. Something ill be speaking and following @Ari Evergreen and @David Vogel about. And of course more videos from @Jake Van Clief. I went into gemini and created parts of the design and had it add controls for it so i can get it looking how i wanted, then took the code and added them to my files or my prompt. This seemed to really advance the design forward. i need to find a better way to update the files. This design was not easy! I want to thank @Shirsho Guha @Marcos Accioly and all others for the feedback on the my other post for my first website. You can see the old version and 1st post about it here: https://www.skool.com/quantum-quill-lyceum-1116/project-2-personal-website-sheesh?p=8319ce31 Definitely learned alot and look forward to adjusting for better workflow and designs.

Here's how we build new pages for client's now. Takes about 25% less time. First: an interview. We get the client on a call, follow a structured intake, get everything we need. Claude ingests the transcript and maps the requirements — buyer, intent, conversion action, messaging priorities. That's the foundation. Then Cash, our copywriter agent, writes the copy. Then Ruby, our front-end designer, takes the copy and the client's identity system and builds a clean HTML/CSS mockup. We hand it to the client. They give us feedback. We collect assets — photos, logos, screenshots. Then Cody. Cody has access to the Elementor JSON templates our human designer originally built for this client's site. He reads the approved HTML. He generates a new JSON file in the same structure — same design system, same component logic, same brand patterns. We import that JSON into Elementor. The page is 90% built. The humans still do the review. The humans built the original templates. The humans ran the interview. But the production time? It collapsed. Jake's folder system didn't replace the agency. It restructured where the human work actually lives.

This is a new style as well that I'm testing and I'm talking about systems thinking a little bit more in it and how I think that you can do more as a company now, especially if you're a consultancy. If you're thinking of starting your own or already have one, this video might be huge value for you! It's on my YouTube so if you can go like it there and leave a comment that would be amazing I'll probably create a text companion and make a few more videos and add this to a new series called systems thinking In the classroom! We shall see.

🎉 Meet your new admin: @David Vogel Some of you have been watching this happen in real time. David has been quietly turning his "Show Your Work" posts into one of the most useful threads in this community for months. Resource roundups, deep-dives, honest takes on what's actually working in production. No fluff. No hype. 🛠️ So I gave him the keys. 🔑 David is now an admin of Clief Notes, and he has his own classroom: 🏛️ David's Corner. Go check it out. AI Acronym Overload? Here's the Cheat Sheet - Davids Corner 📂 What's in David's Corner He started with the resource post a lot of you bookmarked last week and has been steadily expanding it. As of right now you'll find: 🔥 Must Have Resources - 🎨 Looking for design inspiration? - 🧠 AI Acronym Overload? Here's the Cheat Sheet - ⭐ Some of My Favorite Resources 📚 Learning for Everyone - 🥊 Obsidian is BLOAT! Batter Up - 💰 Flip the Script — It's all about the $$$ - 👻 Do You Have a Soul? - 🔄 My AI Workflow Evolution 👨‍💻 Developer Resources - 🕵️ LEAKED: Ten Prompts from Experts - ⚡ Introducing the Hermes Stack 🎯 David and Jakes Picks (this one's going to grow) Plus he's curating trusted YouTube channels and a running list of favorite community posts on resources inside the corner. So if you wrote something good about a tool, a stack, or a workflow, that's where it might end up. 👀 He's adding more weekly. If something stops delivering, he wants to hear about it. That's how the corner stays sharp. 🔪 💡 Why this matters The Vault and The Drawing Room give you my methodology. David's Corner gives you a second lens. Same standards (battle-tested, no theory, no marketing slides), different angle. He's been in the trenches with tools and stacks, and he writes about them honestly. ✅ What you can do 1. 🔖 Go bookmark David's Corner in the classroom 2. 💬 Drop a comment under his posts when something works (or doesn't) 3. 📨 Got a resource that should be in there? Tag him. He's curating.
