🏆 WEEKLY COMP #10: THE DIAGNOSTICIAN 🏆
🎟️ PRIZE: FREE SEAT IN THE LYCEUM 🎟️ Pick your cohort. Technical, Business, or Creator. Your call. 📋 THE CHALLENGE Build a folder-based AI diagnostician that reads something broken and tells you WHY it's broken. Not how to fix it. Why it failed. This week's deliverable is one diagnostician folder that someone could drop into a Claude project and use to figure out why something in their world isn't working. 🎯PICK YOUR DOMAIN The domain is yours. Pick something specific. Pick a failure you've actually seen happen. A few sparks to get you thinking: - 📉 Why a landing page isn't converting - 📧 Why cold emails to a specific buyer aren't getting replies - 📋 Why a product spec keeps getting pushed back by engineering - 📄 Why a resume isn't getting callbacks in a specific industry - 🚪 Why users drop off at one step of an onboarding flow - 💸 Why a pricing page isn't converting trials - 🎥 Why a YouTube video underperformed the channel average - 🤝 Why a sales deal stalled after the demo - 📱 Why an app's retention craters in week two The more specific, the better. "Diagnoses marketing problems" is too broad. "Diagnoses why cold emails to enterprise IT buyers get opened but never answered" 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 interpretable context methodology. Folders as architecture. Each file does one job well. Your diagnostician is a folder with five things: - 📄 identity.md (who the diagnostician is, what they diagnose) - 📐 rules.md (how they diagnose: what they look at, how they separate cause from symptom) - 💬 examples.md (2-3 example diagnoses showing the reasoning) - 📚 reference/ (common failure modes, diagnostic frameworks, benchmarks) - 📖 README.md (how to use it, what to feed it) Drop the folder into a Claude project. Claude becomes the diagnostician. Reusable. Shareable. Portable. 🔥 THE ANGLE THIS WEEK A diagnostician is NOT an editor. Last comp was The Editor. That one critiques craft. It looks at a draft and says "this part is weak, go fix it."
