What you'll learn

Claude Code as a Intelligence system for knowledge work

Built for coding, powerful for knowledge work orchestration. See how it runs consulting, writing, and marketing work.

CLAUDE.md: the file at the center of the system

One markdown file - your identity, voice, standards, and rules of engagement. Loads in Code and Cowork.

Inside the CLAUDE.md files I use for real professional work

See the real files from my Claude Code setup and get prompts to build your own.

Why this topic matters

Claude Code was built for software engineers, but the architecture underneath - persistent context, skills, tool connections is exactly what knowledge workers need. CLAUDE.md is the file that makes it personal. I use it to run my consulting, my course, and my newsletter. This lesson shows how the system works, walks through the real files, and demonstrates how to build yours.
