Guides
Read it once. Keep it forever.
Field guides from IndieOps: one file each, yours to download, with the honest catches nobody puts in the README.
AI has e-motions now
It has a real crush on video editors.
The follow-on to Headless Edit. That guide cut footage you shot; this course makes footage that never existed. Claude Code writes a program that paints any frame, a headless browser takes the pictures and FFmpeg makes the film. Fourteen pages and a tested starter kit. Works offline and prints to PDF.
- The seek(t) engine: any frame, on demand, in any format
- Springs, a beat grid and synthesized sound, so every move lands on a cue
- A critique loop that makes Claude look at its own frames
- The overnight brief, and a 3D product spot
- On Cue Studio, the starter kit every command in the course runs on
Requires valid email. New versions go to that address. You get HTML, PDF and the On Cue Studio kit.
Edit a Video by Talking to It
Cut, clean and animate a short with Claude Code or Codex. No timeline to learn.

- Three paths: Headless, Studio (Agentcut) and Timeline (DaVinci)
- The five-pass edit, one prompt per pass
- Six effect recipes and a fix-it table
- Every prompt from the video, ready to copy
- Eight more repos behind advent-calendar doors

Turn Strangers Into Regulars
A marketing course for builders who launched to an empty room.
A free single-file course from IndieOps. Eight short Issues, a 30-day build and prompt cards for your AI intern, narrated by Dev, who launched to an empty room so you don’t have to. Works offline and prints to PDF.

BYO Claudelets
Little apps. Your machine. Zero permission slips.
Why are you vibe-coding like the Boomers? Build, preview, prod, share, support is their loop. This is the other one: small apps that live on your own machine and answer to nobody.
- What a Claudelet is, and what it isn't
- The build loop, start to finish
- Where the permission slips used to be
