Vibe Code Course: Boost Productivity with Claude Code & Codex — Skills, MCP, and Beyond

Who this is for

• Anyone already building with Claude Code / Codex who wants to go faster
• Founders, PMs, and operators who've shipped an MVP or vibe coded in the past and want to move quicker
• Builders of any background — business or technical — comfortable with Git and GitHub
• Anyone ready to get more out of their AI coding assistants

   Foundations & Setup

   Get your environment fully set up and learn to drive Codex and Claude Code from the terminal: safe permission modes, choosing a model and reasoning level from the current picker, planning, and continuing or resuming useful sessions. Then build a live, end-to-end automation without bypassing the safeguards on your laptop.

   Connect & Automate

   The big unlock. Build your own Skills to turn repeatable tasks into automations you trigger just by chatting, then use MCP servers to connect Claude Code and Codex to the tools you already work in — your database, Notion, GitHub, and project-management apps. Add command-line power with CLIs like gh and the Google Workspace CLI, and automate around your workflow with pre- and post-Hooks.

   Agentic Workflows

   Make the jump from one assistant doing tasks to planning specs and delegating across a team of specialized subagents. Spec-driven development, building and running agent teams (design and content-writing agents), and calling agents programmatically via API.

   Capabilities & Capstone

   Bring it all together on a real, finished project. New capabilities like generating presentation decks, then combine spec-driven development, subagents, MCP, and hooks into one applied build — with time to review, troubleshoot, and demo what you shipped.
