Welcome to Clief Notes. Here's where to start.
1. Watch the intro video and introduce yourself in the intro post here 2. Start with The Foundation (free course). Concepts, folder architecture, prompting framework. Everything else builds on this. 3. Check in at the bottom of each lesson. Polls, discussion posts, other members working through the same stuff. Use them. 4. When you're ready to build real things, move to Implementation Playbooks (Level 2). When you're ready to build your own tools, Building Your Stack (Level 3). 5. Post your work. Ask questions. Help others when you can. What are you here to build?

🌶️ CINCO DE MAYO FIRESALE — STARTS NOW 🌶️
Locked in for the next 5 days only. Ends May 5th at 10:00 AM EST. No exceptions. 🎉 Premium: $27 → $14/mo 🎉 VIP: $97 → $67/mo The closest you'll get to our original launch pricing. We're doing this because the community has shown up for us, and we want to show up back. 🤝 🔥 Already a member? Read this carefully. To lock in the new rate, you need to: 1. Cancel your current plan 2. Resign under the new price That's the only way the system can apply the new rate. We have way too many members for manual refunds, so we can't refund anyone who just signed up at current pricing. But the savings stack month over month, so if you plan to stick around (and you should 😁), the math works out fast. 🚫 A few ground rules: Please do not DM myself or Jake about pricing, exceptions, or extensions. We love you, but we're a small team and we need to stay focused on building. Everyone gets the same window. Everyone gets the same deal. If you miss it, you miss it. We'll do more things for the community down the road. ⏰ The clock: 🟢 LIVE NOW 🔴 Locks May 5th, 10:00 AM EST - Premium gets you The Vault and Afternoon Tea calls. - VIP gets you The Drawing Room, High Tea, and bespoke folder builds from Jake himself. If you've been on the fence, this is the moment. 🚀 Tag a friend who needs to be in here. Let's make Cinco a movement. 🎊 🌶️🌶️🌶️
The Vault will make your Claude efficient
It’s not: “we cleaned files” It’s: “we built a system that keeps itself clean.” The first month I was just trying to get my head around the Foundation, Implementation and understand what is happening. Foundation already gave me a Content Provider style architecture, along with the animation and website builder, i intuitively and with both ChatGPT and Claude I started by implementing Jake's structure. I watched YouTube videos as well that gave me other insights (and validated that Jake's course is the only place that i see that talks about ICM and Architecture and such). Either way, I signed up for premium yesterday, and found that there was much more to complement the Foundation. As Jake suggested, I slowly took each on of the Vault items, and explored with Claude - how is our architecture compared to GitHub repos (which I tapped into some of the members GitHub repos and made Claude check itself against those insights - super thank you Community!!). It pointed out a few times that our architecture is more mature, though it always found 1 or 2 items that could improve its flow. We had a glitch this morning when I prompted the execution of today's schedule with all the items to post, create and monitor, which the Orchestrator and Operator (me) had to dissect what it did and ensure it won't follow that course again, and whether such a flow is efficient both Token costs and Workflow. It found ways to optimize - extracted what it found useful from the Vault, informed that skills that mention in Vault are skills we already captured (among others). My very first project with Jake - text to video animation has been improving on its own outside my Brand Sandbox. And as I closed my Claude after uploading the content it had structured neatly for me in an HTML file with EVERYTHING that i needed for the content posting, I had it summarize its work - which I hope this help if you read this far (thank you for reading my stuff:)) - Three-day architecture delta (Apr 30 → May 3)

I just showed what I was building and it opened a door
At work we have strict rules around AI and for a long time I thought it would never be possible to get access to tools like Claude. In my personal life I've been using AI for a while now mainly to help me build Power Automate flows. I'm not technical but I know what I want and I've built a lot in SharePoint that helps me do my job. A few months ago I hit a wall. I kept having to explain to AI who I was and what I wanted every single time. I was done with it. Online there was so much going on that it felt like I was missing everything. Then a video from Jake showed up on Instagram. I scrolled past it twice. The third time I watched it. It was about the folder structure he used. I could see what he was building but I had no idea if it would actually work for me. After one week the results were way better than I expected. And it keeps getting better. Back to work. I wanted to find out what AI options were actually available within our company. So I showed my work to a few people. Turns out the company has a dedicated AI team already working with Claude. I didn't even know that. They told me I was further ahead than most people and that they loved seeing that I had picked up the folder structure the way I did. That is what convinced them. Only a few people in our entire organization have access to that environment. And now I'm one of them. Really happy about this 🚀🏆
