## Claude Desktop

Projects, files and skills for the work you already do in chat.

- [Projects and Skills — Reusable Claude](https://academy.memberpress.ai/courses/projects-skills/): Build Projects with stable system prompts. Write Skills as portable procedures. Share both with your team.

## Claude Code

Run Claude in your terminal, work in a real codebase, and hand work to agents.

- [Claude Code Agents — Sub-Agents, Tools, and MCP](https://academy.memberpress.ai/courses/code-agents/): Sub-agents, the tool-use primitive, MCP servers, and a sub-agent that ships PRs end-to-end.
- [Claude Code — Getting Started](https://academy.memberpress.ai/courses/code-intro/): Install Claude Code, run your first task, read the diff, and learn when to interrupt and when to let it run.

## Prompt Engineering

From the structure of a good prompt to chains, evals and prompts in production.

- [Prompt Engineering 101](https://academy.memberpress.ai/courses/prompt-engineering-101/): Nineteen lessons of structure, specificity, examples, and chained prompts.
- [Real-World Prompts — Chains, Evals, and Production](https://academy.memberpress.ai/courses/real-world-prompts/): Prompt chains, evals, version control, and rolling back a bad prompt without breaking production.

## Building with the API

API fundamentals, tool use, MCP and agents, ready to ship.

- [Agent-Discoverable Surfaces](https://academy.memberpress.ai/courses/agent-discoverable-surfaces/): Make your site, data, and tools discoverable by AI agents. MCP for assistants like Claude, Custom GPTs for ChatGPT, and OpenAPI as the schema that ties them together.
- [Anthropic API Fundamentals](https://academy.memberpress.ai/courses/api-fundamentals/): Get an API key, send your first request, handle errors and rate limits, and ship a real Claude integration.
- [Tool Use — From Calculator to Agent](https://academy.memberpress.ai/courses/tool-use/): From calculator-as-a-tool to a small agent — define tool schemas, handle tool-use loops, instrument for production.

## Workflow

Write down how the work is done, so a person or an agent can follow it.

- [Skills as Standard Operating Procedures](https://academy.memberpress.ai/courses/skills-as-sops/): Treat skill files as factory SOPs — institutional memory written down so anyone, human or agent, can run the procedure.

## Strategy

What each helper should do, and where the boundaries go.

- [The Great Minds Constellation](https://academy.memberpress.ai/courses/great-minds-constellation/): How to split AI helpers into small plugins that each do one job well, and why one do-everything assistant does each job worse.
