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 stack that works for me
There are two skills in Claude that I use over everything else that have been really successful for me. I love the folder system here and I use something similar just to keep things organized. As I'm sure most people have heard of Superpowers and I think it's good to a point. Superpowers is good at brainstorming and asking me the questions I didn't consider but it's bad on execution. That's where GSD or Get Shit Done comes in. It can take the plan from Superpowers, break it down into Phases and Waves and then you verify at every checkpoint to make sure a certain feature works. This effectively allows me to "one-shot" apps and make sure it works along the way. The part of the stack that I don't have nailed down yet (leaning into my cyber security background a bit) is security and just trying to make sure we cover stuff like prompt/code injection for example. Does anyone else have a similar stack or different process?

Who's here? Drop your intro.
Tell us three things: 1. What you do (job, industry, student, career-changer, whatever) 2. What brought you to Clief Notes 3. One thing you're trying to figure out right now related to computing or AI I'll respond to every single one. And read each other's intros too because the person who's stuck on the same problem as you might already be in this thread. I'll go first I am Jake, I have been working in tech for 15 Years, building with Generative AI for 3 Years straight now! Excited to teach and learn! That's it. Simple, scannable, gives you data on who's joining and what they need, and keeps the feed clear for content that retains people past week one.

Using the folder system to build Elementor pages in WordPress
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.
