Free Starter Repo

    Second Brain
    Boilerplate

    The starter repo I built live in the masterclass. Stop re-explaining your business to AI from scratch.

    How to Use It

    1. 1.Clone the repo (or open it in Claude Code or any AI coding assistant)
    2. 2.Paste MEGA_PROMPT_V2.md — it inspects the repo and personalizes it for you
    3. 3.Fill in CLAUDE.md and the memory/ files with who you are
    4. 4.Run the skills/ workflows on your real work
    5. 5.Add a memory write-back step so every session makes the next one smarter

    What's Inside

    CLAUDE.md + structure
    The base context file and folder skeleton you start a brain from.
    Memory layer
    profile, goals, projects, decisions, examples — the five files that answer "who am I?"
    Pre-built skills
    Daily-priorities and decision-memo workflows you can run on day one.
    MCP + tools setup
    An allowed-tools guide so your AI knows what it can safely touch.
    The adaptive mega prompt
    MEGA_PROMPT_V2.md — Claude reads the repo, researches your public context, plays back what it understood, asks only what's missing, and personalizes the boilerplate for you.
    YOUR FIRST PROMPT

    One paste to get started

    Open the repo in Claude Code, then paste:

    Load this repo as my AI Second Brain. Explain what context you found, what is missing, and the first workflow I should customize.

    A prompt is useful once. A workflow is useful every week. The boilerplate turns your repeated prompts into workflows — and remembers what it learned for next time.

    Who It's For

    Knowledge workers: who are tired of re-pasting the same context into every AI chat.
    Operators & founders: who want AI that knows their goals, projects, and decisions.
    Anyone who watched the masterclass: and wants the exact repo to build their own version.

    Five Questions Your Brain Answers

    The whole repo exists to answer these — once, so you never re-explain them again.

    1.

    Who am I?

    CLAUDE.md + memory/profile.md capture your role, voice, and how AI should work with you.

    2.

    What am I trying to accomplish?

    memory/goals.md and projects.md hold what matters right now.

    3.

    What context matters?

    inbox/ and memory/ hold your real sources of truth, not generic advice.

    4.

    What workflows repeat?

    skills/ turn your repeated prompts into reusable workflows.

    5.

    What should be remembered for next time?

    A memory write-back step saves what was learned, so each session improves the next one.

    Why Start Here

    Minimal on purpose

    The goal isn't a huge knowledge base. It's the smallest set of files that stops you re-explaining your business to AI from scratch.

    Personalizes itself

    The mega prompt inspects the repo, researches your public context, and fills in the gaps with you — instead of leaving you to stare at empty templates.

    Seven-day on-ramp

    A built-in 7-day setup: one small step a day, from context to workflow to memory write-back. No weekend lost to setup.

    Demo-ready

    Ships with demo materials so you can show the before/after moment and teach the concept to your own team.
