NIGHT 1 · MAKE A HOME

What Had Happened Wuz

We start with the short version of how AI got here, then answer the practical question that matters tonight: where will the information your AI needs actually live?

HOME → HERMES → CONTEXT → KEEP TRACK → USE IT

1 · Short history opener

Walk the visual map quickly. The point is the capability shift, not memorizing dates.

Open history map →

2 · Make the turn

If AI can participate in work, it needs a reliable place to learn your instructions, context and working files.

3 · One folder

Open the same sample folder everyone will use all week. Show the tree first. Do not make students click through an app.

4 · Start here

Open START-HERE.md. Explain that it is the front door: what this folder is, where things live, and what to read first.

5 · Working instructions

Open CLAUDE.md. Show how a helper can learn the rules for working in this folder without re-explaining everything every time.

6 · Your turn

Ask: What belongs in this folder? What should stay where it already lives? What three things would you personalize first?

Tomorrow

HOME → HERMES. Connect Hermes to this same folder and prove it can read the starting instructions.
