Build Your AI second brain from scratch, step by step
|
Your AI forgets you every time you open a new chat Every new session starts the same way. You explain your stack. Your project. Your brand. What you decided last week. Then you switch tools and explain it again. The fix is not a better prompt or longer context memory. It is a folder that remembers, sitting on your machine, that every AI tool you use can read. I showed my own brain folder in the last post. It has been taking shape for months, and it runs everything I build. Several people asked the obvious next question. How do I start one? So I wrote the step by step guide. You copy one prompt into Claude. It researches how other people have built theirs, then interviews you about your work, your stack, and your rules. It shows you a plan and waits for your go-ahead before it writes anything. About 10 minutes and you have your own. In this step-by-step guide, I will walk you through to build an AI brain folder for yourself. What do you explain to AI over and over? Hit reply and tell me. That is probably the first thing your own folder should remember. Vinod P.S. There is a Hindi video walkthrough of the same build on my channel. |

Last week, I showed how to build a personal context folder for Claude Code from scratch. That approach is useful because you understand exactly how the system works. But not everyone wants to spend an hour deciding which files, folders, and instructions to create. So I packaged the starting point into a free Claude Code Context and Skills Kit. The setup is simple: Open an empty folder in VS Code. Copy one prompt. Run it with Claude Code. Claude will interview you about your: Background and...
Let me show you what actually happens when Virgil "just asks Nelly." Nelly is the AI brain behind Virgil's launches. I built her. Virgil talks to her in plain language over Telegram. For example, he'll ask Nelly to analyse the last three launch campaigns. "Hey, analyse these emails and tell me which one actually made the money." Simple, right? Looks like magic. It is not. It is plumbing. Here is what fires behind that one line. The brain is connected to Kit, so it can read every email that...
Eight months. That is how long it has been since I last hit send on this newsletter. I just went all the way down into building Sucana. And Sucana went through five different pivots. Each one took us further ahead than the last. We started building Sucana as a product. Something our users would use. Then we flipped it. Instead of building it for users. We started using it ourselves. To do the thing everyone knows my co-founder for. The marketing. The launches. The scaling. We started adding...
