Step-by-step briefs: one George ability each, from zero, in an evening with Claude Code.
Start with the free briefs (plain text files you paste into Claude Code), then read the posts below for the story behind each one. A fuller starter kit is on the way.
The second Build It Yourself brief is the one that should have been first: an always-on machine and a chat thread your scripts can talk to. Telegram, a notify script, a small bridge into Claude Code — and the fourteen traps between you and an assistant that survives a reboot.
The third Build It Yourself brief: real reminders for your AI assistant — same-chat fires, re-nags, an honest sent-handshake so it never claims what it didn't send. The design, the twelve traps, and the prompts to paste into Claude Code.
A new series: one capability of George at a time, as a free markdown brief you paste into Claude Code. First up — the slot watcher that stopped me refreshing the gym app: design, the twelve traps we hit, and step-by-step prompts.
