What is this module?

Module 0 got you started — you installed Claude Code, learned 5 terminal commands, and had your first AI conversation. This module takes you from beginner to power user.

Over 8 lessons, you'll learn how to give Claude persistent memory, manage context like a pro, run parallel research tasks, create reusable slash commands, set up automation hooks, and master advanced prompting patterns that produce dramatically better output.

By the end, you'll have a complete PM workspace — type /standup and get your daily update, /prd and get a full PRD workflow, /retro and get a sprint retrospective. All powered by Claude Code, running on your machine.

Prerequisites

8 Lessons to Mastery

Each lesson is self-contained with exercises. Work through them in order or jump to what you need.

115 min

CLAUDE.md — Your Project Brain

Give Claude persistent memory. Write a CLAUDE.md that makes every session feel like Claude has been on your team for 6 months. Includes templates for Sprint PMs, Strategy PMs, and Research PMs.

215 min

Context Management

Avoid context rot — the #1 reason Claude outputs get worse over time. Learn the one-task-per-session rule, CRAFT framework, and prompt structuring for better outputs.

315 min

Plan Mode — Think Before You Act

Make Claude plan before executing on complex tasks. Learn Plan + Critique, Plan + Options, and Plan + Scope Check patterns for PM workflows.

415 min

Sub-agents — Do 5 Things at Once

Run parallel research, multi-stakeholder communications, and competitive analysis simultaneously. Each sub-agent gets clean context — no cross-contamination.

520 min

Skills — Reusable Slash Commands

Build /prd, /standup, /status, /retro, /competitor and 5 more PM slash commands. Type one word, get a full workflow.

620 min

Hooks — Automate the Boring Stuff

Set up automatic rules: auto-format docs, protect sensitive files, desktop notifications when Claude finishes, quality checks before output.

720 min

Advanced Prompting Patterns

8 patterns that separate okay output from great output: CRAFT, Socratic Method, Role Stacking, Chain of Thought, Constraint Escalation, Anti-Patterns, Iterative Refinement, and Comparative Analysis.

830 min

Building Your PM Workspace

Capstone project: wire everything together into a daily PM command center. CLAUDE.md + Skills + Hooks + templates + folder structure — all ready to go.

What you'll build

By the end of Lesson 8, you'll have a complete PM workspace that looks like this:

pm-workspace/
  CLAUDE.md                    ← Your project brain
  sprint-goals.md              ← Current sprint context
  .claude/
    settings.json              ← Hooks (auto-format, protect files)
    skills/
      standup/SKILL.md         ← /standup command
      prd/SKILL.md             ← /prd [feature] command
      status/SKILL.md          ← /status command
      one-pager/SKILL.md       ← /one-pager [feature] command
      retro/SKILL.md           ← /retro command
  templates/                   ← PRD, one-pager, status templates
  docs/                        ← Generated outputs

Before Mastery

  • Re-explain context every session
  • Write the same prompts over and over
  • Outputs get worse the longer you chat
  • One task at a time, sequentially

After Mastery

  • Claude knows your context automatically
  • Type /prd and get a full workflow
  • Clean sessions, sharp outputs every time
  • 5 tasks in parallel with sub-agents

Ready to level up?

Start with Lesson 1 (CLAUDE.md) and work through to Lesson 8. By the end, you'll have a complete AI-powered PM workspace that saves you hours every week.
