Welcome to Clief Notes. Here's where to start.
Welcome to Clief Notes. Here’s where to start. 👋 You don’t need to watch the entire classroom before trying something. Pick a starting point, make something small, and bring your questions back here. 🧭 Find your way around Navigating the Course shows you what’s here and how to get around. If you’re new to working with AI, start with The Foundation. We work through prompting, context, and organizing your files so you can give an AI a job you can actually check. You’ll find guidance for Claude Code and Codex, plus a regular chat route where you save the files yourself. 💬 Use the check-ins At the bottom of the lessons, you’ll find polls and discussion posts. Share what you tried, what worked, and what needed correcting. If something doesn’t make sense, post the lesson and timestamp. “I got stuck right here” is a perfectly useful question. 🏆 Put something into practice Visit the Competitions Mega Thread for the current challenges, rules, and prizes. It’s a good excuse to finish something and see how other people approached the same problem. 📦 Looking for more? Premium: Explore The Vault for practical packages, templates, meeting takeaways, and worked examples. VIP: Head into The Drawing Room for VIP sessions and resources. Post your work. Ask questions. Help someone else when you can. What are you here to build—or what’s one task you’d love to make easier? Tell us below.

🏆 WEEKLY COMP #15: THE REBUILD 🏆
🎁 $1,000 IN PLATFORM CREDITS🎁 One winner takes it. 📋 THE CHALLENGE Pick your weakest entry from any past comp. Read the feedback file we sent you. Rebuild it. Then prove the rebuild is better. Every entrant since the Cartographer has a file that says what worked, two fixes, and the one thing that would have moved them up. Most of those files have been read once. This week you act on one. This week's deliverable is the original pinned, the feedback file, the rebuild, and a control showing old against new. 🎯 PICK YOUR ENTRY Any comp you entered. Cartographer, Auditor, Translator, Control, or anything earlier if you still have the repo. Pick the one where the feedback file stung the most. That is the one with the most room. If you have never entered, you can still play. Pick any public repo from a past comp whose author has posted that it is open for rebuilds, and treat the public results post as your feedback file. Credit them in the README. A few sparks: - Your Cartographer map, rebuilt so the territory ships pinned in the repo - Your Auditor, rebuilt so every finding resolves to a provision a mod can open - Your Translator, rebuilt so the shape holds on the input that broke it - Your Control, rebuilt around the question the folder lost on - Any entry whose README a stranger could not walk The pattern is the same every time. The feedback named a gap. You close it and show the closure. 🔥 THE ANGLE THIS WEEK Last comp was The Control. You ran the same questions with and without a folder and committed both. The Rebuild runs the same test on two versions of the same folder. Original on one arm. Rebuild on the other. Same questions, same order. The questions come from the feedback file, so the test is aimed at the exact thing you were told to fix. In the Cartographer round, Adam put his README in front of an outsider, watched her fail for twenty minutes, cut it from 904 words to 471, and kept the old version in the repo so you could see the change. That is a rebuild with the receipt attached. This week everyone ships one.
Shark Tank Proof
🦈 **Shark Tank Proof**: 14 free Claude skills that test a business before you spend money on it Most AI startup tools are yes men. Ask "is my idea good?" and they say yes. So I built a pack that disagrees with you. **What it does** • **/shark-board**: a board of directors that argues about your idea and hands back a verdict • **/truth-serum**: 100 simulated buyers who aren't polite, so you see the objections early • **/burn-test**: your CFO. Margins, break-even, and how much cash you need • **/litmus** and **/dealbreaker**: the right price, and an offer that's hard to say no to • **/signal**, **/straight-talk**, **/reality-check**, **/prove-it**: marketing, brand, operations, launch • **/kill-or-build**: the full business plan, with a verdict the math decides, not me • **/handshake** and **/first-dollar**: the pitch for your next yes, plus funding that fits you **The part I care about most** Every claim gets a label: MEASURED, THEY SAID IT, PLANNED or SIMULATED. A simulated buyer can never count as proof. Your plan only says "Profitable" after a real person pays, signs or books. It's built on the Next Yes evidence folder from our sessions, and the Lyceum funding list (42 places to look) is built into /first-dollar. 🔗 https://github.com/peaknr35/shark-Tank-proof Try it on your idea and tell me where it breaks. 🙏

Community Guidelines
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.
