    # 162 Cracking the X algorithm with Claude Code

    Tom Crawshaw (8+ years in automations, $25M+ in attributed e-com revenue) cracks open the content system that's pulled him millions of views. We walk through the Claude Code skill he built that handles voice profile, copywriting principles, hook scoring, image prompts, and a humanizer pass from one slash command. He also surfaces a hidden Claude Code feature called /insights that audits your full usage history and tells you what to build next. You'll learn how to turn messy ChatGPT workflows into a real skill, why Whisperflow is non-negotiable, and the one slash command 99% of Claude Code users are sleeping on. Timestamps 00:00 Intro 00:30 Tom's automation background 03:30 Skills vs. Projects on context 08:30 Auto-updating voice profile from X 11:00 Nano Banana plus Canva workflow 23:30 Live demo: a Whisperflow post 34:30 Hook scoring with copywriting principles 46:30 The hidden /insights command 54:30 Skills vs. n8n vs. Lovable Key Points Skills beat Claude Projects on context. Projects load every reference file on every message. A skill works like a book: Claude pulls only the chapter it needs, so a full pipeline runs in one chat. Tom's skill auto-updates his voice profile weekly. The X API pulls his last 7 days of posts, ranks by engagement, and rewrites the profile so the skill keeps drifting toward what's working. /insights is the most slept-on feature in Claude Code. It audits your full session history and hands back a real report: what's working, where you're breaking your own rules, skills to build, and prompts to run. Image gen is 80% Nano Banana, 20% Canva. Generate fast in the AI tool, then finish in Canva with magic grab and magic erase. Whisperflow changed how Tom and Corey think, not just type. Speaking forces tighter thinking and makes prompts richer because adding context costs almost nothing.

    # 160 EASY Claude Cowork Setup (full beginner tutorial)

    In this solo episode, I walk through the exact process of setting up Claude Cowork from scratch — the right way — using the free Cowork Onboarding plugin I built and made open source. I go step by step through the full onboarding flow, from picking your workspace folder and connecting tools, to building three core context files (About Me, Brand Voice, and Working Style), generating global instructions that tie everything together, setting up scheduled tasks like a daily morning briefing and quarterly context review, and running an optional security review to lock in sensible rules. Timestamps 00:00 – Why Cowork is useless out of the box 02:22 – Starting the onboarding flow from scratch 03:30 – Choosing workspace folder and onboarding path 04:37 – Workspace structure and file access permissions 05:45 – Connecting Google Workspace tools (Gmail, Drive, Calendar) 06:56 – Building context files: About Me, Brand Voice, Working Style 10:58 – Linking existing brand materials from Google Drive 12:44 – Generating global instructions from your context files 15:00 – Skills and plugin recommendations from the marketplace 17:24 – Setting up scheduled tasks: morning briefing and quarterly review 19:46 – Running the optional security review 23:23 – Wrapping up: what we built and the two manual steps left Key Points Most people skip the onboarding and then wonder why Cowork feels generic. The entire point of setting it up properly — building context files and global instructions — is so Claude never has to ask who you are again. Every session loads with that context automatically.The three context files (About Me, Brand Voice, Working Style) are the foundation of the whole setup. Without them, Cowork is writing responses for a stranger. With them, it knows your business, how you communicate, and how you like your deliverables structured.Global instructions are the piece most people miss. Once you paste your generated global instructions into Cowork's settings, every single session loads that context from the start — no repeating yourself, no re-explaining your preferences.

    # 159 Build STUNNING Websites with Claude Code + Google Stitch (full walkthrough)

    I sit down with Leon van Zyl, who ran a web design company for 10 years and now teaches over 700 people how to build real applications with coding agents. We walk through his exact workflow for building professional, client-ready websites using Google Stitch for the design system and Claude Code for the build — no coding skills required. Leon shows the difference between a one-shot AI-generated site and what you get when you front-load the design system before touching code. By the end, you'll have a repeatable workflow for going from design concept to finished website — including custom AI images that match your brand.

    # 158 Claude Code Routines Clearly Explained (and why it matters)

    Claude Code just dropped routines, and when I first saw the three options — routine, schedule, and loop — I had no idea when to use which. In this video, I break down all three modes in plain language and then demo building a routine from scratch using an X trend scanner I already had in my skill library. You'll see the full setup: GitHub connection, system prompt config, trigger options, and connector permissions. By the end, you'll know exactly which mode to use for any automation you want to build and how to get your first routine live. Links Mentioned: Claude Code Routines: https://claude.ai/code/routines GitHub: https://github.com Timestamps 00:00 – Intro: The confusion with Claude Code's new features 00:20 – The three modes: routine, schedule, and loop 00:50 – When to use each mode (simple breakdown) 01:10 – Using Claude Code to find a skill to demo 01:45 – Selecting the X scan routine 02:00 – GitHub requirement for routines explained 02:18 – Creating a new routine at claude.ai/code/routines 02:35 – Naming your routine and connecting your GitHub repo 02:50 – Dropping in your system prompt 03:05 – Setting the schedule trigger (10am Eastern daily) 03:20 – Configuring connectors and permission sets 03:40 – Running on demand and reviewing the output 04:10 – Full recap of all three modes Key Points * Claude Code has three automation modes — routine (runs on Anthropic's cloud, set it and forget it), schedule (needs local access, also available in Cowork), and loop (immediate execution in the CLI). Picking the wrong one means your automation won't work the way you expect. * Routines require a GitHub repository. You can't create one without it, so get your repo connected before you start. * The whole setup happens at claude.ai/code/routines — no coding required beyond having a system prompt in markdown format ready to paste in. * Routines support three trigger types: time-based schedule, GitHub event, or API call. That gives you flexibility depending on whether you want it cron-based, push-based, or fired from another system. * The X trend scanner ran automatically and surfaced several trending topic candidates with suggested content angles — zero manual research, just results ready to use.

    # 156 Build Karpathy's Second Brain With Obsidian + Claude Code

    Download Nick's free second brain skill -- one-click install that sets up your entire Obsidian vault and ingestion workflow inside Claude Code: https://return-my-time.kit.com/286e11f7e6 I brought on Nick Spisak to build a complete second brain live -- start to finish, in under 20 minutes. By the end of this episode, you'll know exactly how to build your own second brain -- and you can grab Nick's free skill to do it in one click. Timestamps 00:00 - Intro and Karpathy's viral second brain tweet 00:24 - What the second brain concept is 03:28 - Obsidian Web Clipper: scraping pages into your vault 04:41 - Nick's free skill: wizard, ingest, query, and lint commands 05:53 - Live demo: running the setup wizard in Claude Code 08:38 - How many vaults to manage: personal vs. business 10:30 - Opening the vault and exploring the file structure 12:21 - Graph view: seeing connections between your data 15:38 - Ingest command: raw data into organized wiki 16:29 - Automating ingestion on a cron schedule 19:12 - Compounding value and syncing the vault across devices 20:19 - Pruning the vault with the lint command 21:53 - Your data set as a moat in the AI age Key Points * Karpathy released a framework for building an LLM knowledge base. Nick turned it into a free Claude skill with a guided setup wizard, ingest, query, and lint commands -- works across Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, and more. One-click install, no coding required. * The system runs on three tiers: raw (brain dump), wiki (AI-organized knowledge base), and outputs (answers from querying). Drop files into raw, run ingest, and the AI maps everything into structured wiki entries with relationship graphs. * You can automate ingestion using Claude Code's loop feature so the vault stays current without manual work. Pair with Obsidian's paid sync tier and a note captured on your phone is indexed before you're back at your desk. * The lint command health-checks your wiki for outdated entries and missing connections -- and tells you exactly what to clip next to close the gaps. The wiki tells you what it doesn't know yet. * Day zero this thing is basic. Day 90 it's a company asset no competitor can copy. Your private knowledge base is the foundation for every agent and skill you build -- and nobody else will have it.
