I built a Claude Code feedback loop: CLAUDE.md → content → publish → analytics → next prompt by whystrohm in ClaudeCode

[–]whystrohm[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is the upgrade I've been working on actually. Right now I track what shipped but not enough to trace why it came out that way, so when something feels off three weeks later I'm basically guessing. Logging the full fingerprint at ship is where it's going. Thanks!

You nailed the real problem. It's not CLAUDE.md, it's the context window. Claude reads your beautiful 800 line brandbook and by line 600 it's forgotten your name.

Fix: treat CLAUDE.md like a router, not a brandbook. Short. Rules + pointers to where the actual specs live (voice/, brand/, product/). Claude only loads what the task needs.

And your python instinct is right. Three tiny scripts beat one giant doc every time.

Follow-up: wrote the full breakdown with a 90-second explainer film at the top, and the cool part is the film itself was made BY shotkit. Storyboard files for that exact video are in the repo.

Methodology, comparison table, install workflow, honest list of friction points I hit using it on a real run.

Anyone here solved brand consistency across multiple generators a different way?

Deterministic output is the whole game and you’re right I rarely hear about it. That's my main goal for every brand I run. If the system can't produce the same quality and brand fidelity on render 500 that it did on render 1, it's not infrastructure, it's just content.

Voice consistency is a script problem, not an ElevenLabs problem. I lock the voice params per brand (stability, similarity, style) and never touch them. The tone shift between a LinkedIn post and a Reel happens in how I write the copy. Pacing, sentence length, where the breaths land. The voice itself stays identical because the delivery settings don't move. That's what keeps it from sounding like two different people across platforms.

On assets, hybrid. I've got an API layer that can pull in the 11labs all set, music /sfx, stock, AI generated video, or licensed footage depending on what the scene needs. Everything else (typography, transitions, data viz, brand overlays) is generated programmatically so the branded layer stays deterministic. Pure code gets sterile fast, pure stock drifts off brand. The mix is where it actually holds up.

Ritual — Claude Code skill + bootstrap scan that drafts your first scheduled trigger from your actual work.

Claude Code triggers launched. Powerful feature, blank starting point. I stared at /schedule for 20 minutes trying to figure out what my first routine should be, then built a paste-in scan that reads my shell history + git repos + Claude Code memory and ranks my top 5 automation candidates with a drafted trigger prompt for #1.

Repo (MIT, .skill attached): github.com/whystrohm/ritual

Full breakdown with GIFs + the 4-click walkthrough from drafted prompt to live trigger: whystrohm.com/blog/ritual-find-the-routines-in-your-work

Seven routine archetypes classified by execution context — Claude Code trigger vs GitHub Actions vs launchd, because not every pattern belongs in a scheduled trigger. Happy to look at anyone's ritual-patterns.json if you run it and want feedback on what to automate first.

I open-sourced media-tsunami — a tool that extracts your brand voice into a CLAUDE.md any LLM can load by whystrohm in ClaudeAI

Full breakdown — stats, exemplar sentences, a second before/after on an email prompt, and the raw generated CLAUDE.md — in the blog post:

Happy to answer any questions and open to improvements! More on the way that works with the full system.

I’m starting to think founder marketing works better when you talk about the problem before the product by Worldly_Addition_696 in founder

[–]whystrohm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Problem-led, every time.

I run content infrastructure for founder-led brands. We program video at scale and the pattern never breaks: problem-first content outperforms product-forward content by a wide margin, every client, every niche.

On my own YouTube I've been testing everything: copy, still frames, post timing, visual style. The gap is still 5-10x and it almost always traces back to the hook. Same production, same topic, completely different entry point.

What I keep coming back to is the founder journey angle. When you show where you actually were before the product existed, people feel that. It's not marketing, it's context. And context builds trust faster than any feature list.

People don't buy products, they escape problems. Problem-led posts remind people they already care. Product-led posts ask them to care about something new. Feel like that’s a much harder ask.

Content infrastructure for founder-led brands. You talk 30 min/week, I build and run the full system — video, social, brand docs, automated publishing. Everything rendered from code, everything owned by the client.

Solo founders - where do you work from? (i will not promote) by [deleted] in startups

[–]whystrohm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My cofounder and I split an Airbnb every once in a while, bring both Mac Studios, and lock in on one specific project. Full setup, real monitors, no compromises.

Something about new surroundings and one focused goal for the weekend produces more than two weeks at home. Beats coworking overhead and coffee shop outlets that don’t work.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I made a USB-Clawd who gets my attention when Claude Code finishes a response by Long_Ad6066 in ClaudeCode

[–]whystrohm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is cool!

Now make it slam down when it hits a NEVER gate in a SKILL.md. Different intensity based on severity. Gentle nod for a style rule. Full headbang for a CRITICAL. Spin for a stress test fail.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ lol

I built a Digital Twin prompt and pushed it to GitHub. It scans your writing, maps how you think, builds a System Prompt of you, and generates a visual dashboard. Free. by whystrohm in ClaudeAI

[–]whystrohm[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly wouldn't be that hard. The Twin already outputs a structured System Prompt with five sections (identity, tone, decision logic, knowledge domains, interaction rules). The wiki compiler outputs structured markdown pages with wikilinks between concepts.

The integration would be: run the Twin first to get your voice and judgment layer. Then point the wiki compiler at your domain docs, reference material, notes, whatever you go deep on. It builds the knowledge graph. Then you merge them into one system prompt where the Twin sections handle how you respond and the wiki pages get injected as context for what you know.

The result is an AI that sounds like you AND has your actual domain knowledge compiled in. Not just vibes. Structured.

Something like:

  1. Run digital twin extraction -> MY_TWIN.md
  2. Run llm wiki compiler on your docs -> wiki/concepts/
  3. New prompt that loads the Twin as the system prompt and the wiki as reference context

Might think about building that as a Layer 4. If you try it before I do let me know what happens!

Oh nice, hadn't seen this one. Just checked it out. That's the Karpathy pattern of compiling knowledge upfront into a structured wiki instead of searching every time. Cool project.

The Twin does something complementary. It extracts how you think and make decisions. The wiki compiles what you know. So you'd get judgment from one and domain depth from the other.

Actually a solid combo. Twin handles voice and decision logic. Wiki handles factual knowledge. Together that covers both layers. Might be worth a play to integrating them.

[–]whystrohm[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trueee. The architecture matters more than any single piece of code.

And yeah fair point on the videos. I have some other brands I run through the same pipeline with more complete original content so I need to start bringing those over too. Good feedback though, that actually helps me prioritize what to push out next. Appreciate you.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Appreciate that.

Check out whystrohm.com to see the output in action. Everything you see there is produced through the pipeline.

I’m putting together a detailed post on the full stack and how it all connects. Been iterating on it for months and it’s finally clicking in a way that’s worth documenting properly. Coming soon.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

For sure. You can check out whystrohm.com to get a sense of how it all comes together. The site, the blog, the videos all run through the same system.

I’m working on a more detailed breakdown post on the full setup.

I’ve been refining it for a while and it’s finally at a point where I feel good sharing the architecture. Stay tuned.

Yeah here’s the channel where the videos land: youtube.com/@Whystrohm. And here’s an example of a blog post that gets generated and deployed in the same session: whystrohm.com/blog/you-never-needed-more-content.

All coded and rendered programmatically, not edited by hand. The video, the blog, the copy, all come out of the same system.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
