What you'll learn

Raw-Clauding, a method for compound thinking with AI

3 C's give you a framework: Curiosity, Collaboration, Context

Stay close to your thinking in markdown

Local files that you and AI can edit directly; all your ideas within reach, no more cold starts

How you show up shapes what shows up

Assume tool, get tool behavior; assume intelligence, get thinking partnership

Start practicing today

Leave with free skills, a framework, and a flywheel you can run yourself

Why this topic matters

Everything we do starts as an idea, so stay close to yours by thinking *with* AI instead of outsourcing to it. Follow what's interesting, think together, keep what matters in files you own. If you can write a note, you can do this.

producer/non-technical raw-clauder

I produce music and tv/film at snackermans productions and my special interest is thinking about thinking. I spent the last year building AI-first content systems for clients including other Maven instructors, and before that I worked at Maven (and before that I was a celebrity assistant and before that I was a nanny). All of this shapes how I think with AI.

I also consider myself more of a human being than a human doing, and think there will be a lot more of us who define ourselves by our ideas instead of our roles. Everything I share is how I help you do the same because how we show up shapes what shows up (with AI and each other).
