Practical guide
Build a business that runs with you
Turn recurring business work into checked workflows with Claude Code or Codex, using the TailThemes operating system.
What you will build
An 18-page field guide to the skills, daily loops, and release checks behind TailThemes. Follow real examples from the commit history, then adapt the prompts and starter files to your own business.
You will build a daily brief, define what your agent can change, and create a process that leaves evidence for the next run. The guide includes the failures that changed the system and the checks that still need a human.
- Define an agent's role, inputs, and operating boundaries.
- Write a reusable skill and a daily operations brief.
- Check a release and carry failures into the next run.
- Use a seven-day plan to build your first recurring workflow.
Who this is for
Founders and operators who want to turn a recurring process into software they can run and review.
