WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.640 Andre Kapathi cofounded OpenAI, 00:00:02.640 --> 00:00:14.865 was the head of AI at Tesla, and even had the creator of Claude Code thanking him for feedback on his AI model. So when a man of this caliber makes a tweet that gets seen by 7,700,000 00:00:14.865 --> 00:00:24.545 people about how he thinks we're all using Claude code wrong, I'm all ears. And according to Andre Kapathi, you can 10 x the quality of your output from Claude 00:00:24.545 --> 00:00:39.370 and leapfrog your competitors simply by installing this one file. So in this video, I'm gonna show you exactly what this file is, how do we get it installed, and then we're gonna put it to the test to see if we can transcend what Andre Kapathi is calling the slopocalypse. 00:00:39.370 --> 00:00:43.055 All I ask in return is you hit that like button below, and let's jump in. 00:00:44.095 --> 00:00:47.055 So it all started here from Andre Kapathi's 00:00:47.055 --> 00:00:52.735 official Twitter account where he put out, no other way to describe this, a long ass tweet 00:00:52.895 --> 00:01:02.120 that's extremely technical talking about the four main problems that he sees with current LLMs like Claude. Now I'm still shocked myself that these things get 00:01:02.360 --> 00:01:04.920 7,744,000 00:01:04.920 --> 00:01:21.315 views on a highly technical tweet like this, but it just shows the amount of truth that is in here and the amount of need for something like this. Now, normally, if we're not in the AI world, we'd go through this whole post together and then try to tweak whatever processes we're doing in our businesses to fit it. However, welcome to 2026. 00:01:21.315 --> 00:01:48.305 Welcome to the modern world where someone can take that Twitter file and turn it into what's called a Claude MD file and upload it to the Internet so we can all download it in one line of code, and I'm gonna show you exactly how to do that, and then have our Claude codes operate in line with everything that Andre Kapathi says would make it better. And so this file is currently hosted on something called GitHub, and you can see it's had a 131,000 00:01:48.305 --> 00:01:49.185 stars, 00:01:49.345 --> 00:02:07.250 which if you have no idea what stars are, it's one of the most popular files on this website. Now in this really long tweet, Andre Kapathi identified four main problems with the current setup of LLMs like Claude or Claude Code. It doesn't think before working. It doesn't plan out what it wanted to do. It just gets started, it might be running in the wrong direction. 00:02:07.490 --> 00:02:08.610 It overcomplicates 00:02:08.610 --> 00:02:09.490 the output. 00:02:09.570 --> 00:02:30.560 Lines of code, maybe 500 lines of code when it could have created what it created in a 100 lines. It's hard to thin slice edits. So you see AI these days making full, uh, five minute movies and you're like, oh, can we tweak at the three minute mark this guy smile to make him smile a lot bigger? And all of a sudden, it deletes the whole file and the whole thing's corrupted because it's really hard to sniper, pinpoint, 00:02:30.560 --> 00:02:35.520 edit, whether that be in a video, whether it be on a website, or whatever it is that you're creating with AI. 00:02:35.520 --> 00:03:07.090 And then finally, this is my favorite one right here. At the moment, AI is work driven. It's not goal driven in its execution. It works to work, not working to a goal that you may have for it. And Andre Kapathi says that this is costing you hours every week, and it's actually costing you a lot more than that in the output of your AI agent. And as I said, the actual creator of Called Code, Boris Cherni, replied to this long ass tweet and said that all these points resonate, and he's actually going to be looking to try and fix those issues himself. And even Elon Musk responded, 00:03:07.330 --> 00:03:14.995 sums up the zeitgeist because AI has been trained on the entire Internet. It's going to have basically average IQ, average creativity, 00:03:15.075 --> 00:03:43.195 average everything because everything is regressing to the mean because there's too much crappy training data in there. Now the quickest way to get this file installed so we can start to test it for ourselves is to come over to the GitHub. You can copy paste the actual URL, uh, or you can come down to this thing here, it'll give you the URL to clone and copy it. And this is the awesomest thing about AI, is you go to your Claude code. So whether you use that in terminal like I do or maybe use it in the app, it doesn't matter. All you have to do is say, please 00:03:43.515 --> 00:03:44.555 install 00:03:44.635 --> 00:03:53.755 this file for me, and then paste the URL. And it's gonna go ahead and pull that entire MD file down onto your local device so it can start operating 00:03:54.120 --> 00:04:07.480 through Andre Kapathi's upgraded skill set. So now that it's installed, let me show you the difference that this makes to you operating your business. We're gonna go through the categories that we went through of the four fundamental upgrades that Andre Kapathi is recommending 00:04:07.640 --> 00:04:16.615 that your LLM makes. Starting with thinking first. When you give Claude Code some instructions, it's gonna start sprinting unless you have this file installed. 00:04:16.695 --> 00:04:23.415 This is gonna make sure that it sprints in the right direction. It's gonna not assume things. It's gonna make sure it never hides confusion, 00:04:23.415 --> 00:04:24.695 and it doesn't surface 00:04:24.860 --> 00:05:29.520 trade offs. It's even gonna push back when warranted and stop when confused. It's not gonna build for building's sake, and it's gonna ask you more questions. Okay. So I've pulled up two versions of terminal, which, again, if you don't use it in terminal, it's gonna look codey in advance. Don't worry about it. It's just the exact same as running inside the app, but you have way more features. I actually have a full video on this and showing you how simple it actually is. But I've typed the same prompt into both of these terminal windows, one with the Kapathi MD file installed and one without. So I said, can you make me a lead magnet for Dreamlab? So something that I can put into this video and then get an email in return for and add people to my email list. The first instance, which does not have the Kapathi MD file installed, says, I'll check the Dreamlabs context first then build the lead magnet. It went ahead and just literally built the lead magnet based on this very, very vague prompt. However, it's not bad because it did link straight into my active campaign and straight into the right email folder and then hosted it on the correct website. Once again, you wanna see exactly my setup, I have a video breaking that down, but it did make a lot of assumptions. 00:05:29.680 --> 00:05:42.215 On the second instance of terminal where this Kapathi file is installed, I said, can you make me a lead magnet for Dreamlabs? He says, before I build anything per section three of the rule book, ask first on stack decisions and section 7.1, 00:05:42.215 --> 00:06:00.720 think before acting, I need four things from you. What hook do you want? What format do you want? What list do we add them to? And what URL slug, where does it host it? Once I have those four, I'll draft the page in the standard dark aesthetic single file HTML, show it to you locally, and I'll only deploy it once you give me the green 00:06:00.880 --> 00:06:05.280 light, of which, of course, is going to lead to way higher quality outputs. 00:06:05.645 --> 00:06:13.805 But if more context and high quality outputs isn't enough because initially you're like, wait, that's just more work on my behalf. Yes. Of course, is, but you're going to have masterpieces, 00:06:13.965 --> 00:06:58.790 not slop. The second part, however, is even stronger than that. It's simplicity, which is basically minimum code. Everything's built from code, whether it's videos, photos, websites, lead magnets, PDFs, it's all going to be code. We are training our core to be as simple as possible. So as we continue to build on top of it, its foundations are clear and clean. And so when I asked the terminal window that does not have this Kapathi file installed for a lead magnet, this is what it gave me. Get my exact AI command center, full install config, hands free voice control on Mac, every skill and agent, an MTP I run, how to point it at your own business, which is pretty good because I have given it a lot of context on my business. Send me the setup. Put your email in here, and it's all hosted on my actual website. It's not bad at all. But it is 212 00:06:58.790 --> 00:07:29.620 lines of code where the Kapathi version of it mocked up the exact same page. So this is the old one, and then this is the Kapathi version. Literally no difference. It's almost pixel perfect. But it has about half the amount of coding lines that go into it, which is pretty impressive, especially as you scale these things and load time you want to be as quick as possible, and then building on top of it, you want that foundation to be as clean as possible. And we get all this efficiency just by downloading that one file. Now the third skill we get in this beautiful skill pack is surgical 00:07:29.620 --> 00:07:30.100 changes. 00:07:30.475 --> 00:07:42.235 So it wants Claude to touch only what it must touch. Clean up its own mess after creating it. And when editing existing code, don't improve adjacent code, comments, or formatting. 00:07:42.235 --> 00:08:10.455 Don't refactor things that aren't broken. Match existing style even if you do it differently. And if you notice unrelated dead code, mention it. Don't delete it. Because Claude is historically bad. If you ask for the color of this button to be changed, it might tamper with, say, this box up here and all of a sudden the title is also a different color. But with this file, it's going to have precise edits. And I mean, let's run the test together. Let's see if we can get an orange button here. So I'm just gonna paste that URL right here. I'm gonna say, make the button orange, 00:08:10.695 --> 00:08:11.255 please. 00:08:11.975 --> 00:08:13.255 Play, should I say. 00:08:15.470 --> 00:08:34.815 And he says done. The button is now an orange gradient. I'm gonna refresh this page and it is orange and nothing else has changed. So now let's let go back and test the original one. I'm gonna copy the URL. I'm gonna come back to our original terminal here without the Kipathi file installed. I'm gonna say, can you please make the button green? 00:08:36.575 --> 00:08:41.215 Okay. So it says it's changed the button. I'm gonna come back and refresh it, and the 00:08:41.650 --> 00:08:45.090 whole site is green. That's 00:08:45.090 --> 00:08:56.705 obviously a joke, but I'm sure you've had your Claude code just touching things that it shouldn't be touching. Now the last one, which is my favorite upgrade to my Claude since installing this file, is that makes every action 00:08:56.865 --> 00:09:08.065 goal driven. You get to actually define success criteria for every task or project that you're giving your AI, and it's gonna loop and continue to work until it's verified, 00:09:08.145 --> 00:09:10.225 hit that goal, and become successful 00:09:10.400 --> 00:09:16.720 in its effort. So it's going to basically give itself test results and make sure that it's hitting the a plus in the criteria 00:09:16.720 --> 00:09:39.820 that you gave it. This is when you see those jokes where it's like make me a $100,000,000 business, make no mistakes, keep working until we have a 100,000,000 in the bank. And so for example, if you have something that has a bug in it, you can come in and write something like fix the bug, and it's gonna transform that input into write a test that reproduces the bug so we know exactly how we got it, then make it pass. It will not stop working until it actually passes that criteria. 00:09:39.820 --> 00:09:47.580 The best example of this is actually in my other Andre Kapathi video where I show you exactly step by step how to set up Andre Kapathi's 00:09:46.948 --> 00:09:51.908 second brain for business that is centered around your business goals 00:09:51.908 --> 00:09:58.548 and needs. I'll pop it up here on the screen somewhere, so go and watch that. And if you haven't, hit that subscribe button below. Thanks so much. I'll see you in the next video.
