Claude Code Mastery: From Operator to Builder

Use Claude Code to design your vault structure: folders, templates, and tagging conventions built around how you actually work

Build a 'knowledge intake' skill: feed it a transcript or article and it files it in the right location automatically

Build a 'weekly synthesis' skill that reviews your week's additions and generates a structured summary brief

Write user-level and project-level claude.md files: your AI's operating manual for rules, context, and constraints

Structure projects, manage context, and avoid the configuration mistakes that cause Claude to go off-rails

Save time (and tokens) by having a fully flexible configuration at your fingertips. Never do the same work twice.

Build your chosen project in Claude Code: dashboard, kanban board, document archive, or interactive presentation system

Push to GitHub and deploy to Vercel in one step: your app goes live and auto-deploys on every change

Learn the anatomy of a well-structured skill: triggers, instructions, examples; and build your first one live

Apply the Plan → Execute method: make Claude think before it builds, and see the quality difference side by side

Map your own tasks to the right tool using a decision framework built live in Session 1 with real examples

Understand how Claude Code compares to OpenAI Codex and other AI builders and where each falls short

Apply a structured eval methodology: define test cases, measure output quality, and iterate until your skills perform consistently

Understand when to orchestrate skills together versus keeping them simple and how to know which you need
