Two ladders — what AI can do, and what you do with it. The five levels of AI progression, the five levels of AI use cases, and the path to the frontier.
Working with AI: The Practical Skills
Reasoning vs non-reasoning models, choosing platforms by strength, system prompts over query prompts, Agents/Skills/MCPs/API/CLI, and context management as a daily habit.
Mental Framework for Automating Work with AI
The working-session framework: objectives → value screen → SOPs → trigger/engine/output → KPIs → build. Run it on your own department.
Harnessing the Power of Coding Agents
Why a coding agent is a general agent, how to direct one, give it standing context with CLAUDE.md, extend it with Skills and MCPs, and build a working automation for your real workflow.
Harnessing Hermes — The Autonomous Agent
The capstone: tool vs teammate, the ReAct loop, identity, cron jobs and heartbeats, the Trust Ladder, and the 3 Pillars of running an autonomous agent.
