…page module-first framing
S2.1 deliverable:
- /blog/validated-problem-statement-decide-whats-next/ (Module 1.3 post)
- /blog/validated-problem-statement-template/ (companion artifact, public URL)
- 2 inline SVGs + 1 Mermaid diagram
Hook archetype rotated to Reddit-poster (per hook-bank diversity rule applied after S1.3 cold-eyes review flagged "founder we picked up" pattern saturation). 0 em-dashes, 0 banned words, 0 JT service CTAs.
Landing page restructured per user directive (2026-07-22):
- Removed public post-count framing ("X of 26 posts") - too granular for ICP
- Module table now shows status (Complete / Partial / Coming) + approx reading time per module
- ICP cares about modules + time, not chapter-by-chapter granularity
Module 1 is now complete (3 of 3 chapters live: outreach + Mom Test + validated problem statement).

…Module 2 complete)
Sprint 2 deliverables (3 chapters):
- Module 1.3 "Write Down What You Heard, Decide What's Next" + Validated Problem Statement Template artifact
- Module 2.2 "The One-Page Product Brief (Vibe PRD)" + Vibe PRD Template artifact
- Module 2.3 "Stop Specifying Features. Start Specifying Outcomes." (no artifact - inline tactic, KISS doctrine: job-story framework name stays in citations only)
After Sprint 2:
- Module 1 (Validate the Problem) is COMPLETE - 3 of 3 chapters live
- Module 2 (Design the Solution) is COMPLETE - 3 of 3 chapters live
- Reader can now go idea -> validated problem -> Product Brief without external resources
Hook-bank diversity enforced per S1.3 cold-eyes flag:
- S2.1 Reddit-poster archetype
- S2.2 News-pegged ($1,000 Maven cohort vs free)
- S2.3 Direct address ("You asked for a simple admin panel. You got a spaceship.")
- Zero "founder we picked up" leads in Sprint 2
Landing page updated per ICP feedback (2026-07-22):
- Module-first framing (no post counts to readers)
- Reading time per module + status (Complete/Partial/Coming)
All gates clean: 0 em-dashes, 0 banned words, 0 JT service CTAs across all 3 new posts + 2 new artifacts.

…2605 curriculum drafted
Sprint 4 deliverables (2 chapters + 2 artifacts):
- Module 4B.1 "Who You're Hiring in 2026 and Where to Find Them" + Where-to-Hire Map artifact
- Module 4B.2 "The Hiring Interview That Catches AI Theater" + Hiring Interview Script artifact
After Sprint 4: ALL 12 net-new chapters of the 2605 curriculum are drafted and shipped.
Total course state:
- Module 0: complete (1/1)
- Module 1: complete (3/3)
- Module 2: complete (3/3)
- Module 3: complete (2/2)
- Module 4A: complete (2/2) - self-serve path shippable end-to-end
- Module 4B: 3 of 4 chapters (4B.1 + 4B.2 + 4B.4 SOW; 4B.3 wraps NEW-L pending 2510)
- Module 5: 2 of 6 chapters drafted (Org Chart + Standup Questions); 4 wraps pending 2510
- Module 6: 2 wraps pending 2510
- Module 7: 3 wraps pending 2510
Total: 16 chapters live + 10 wraps pending 2510 LinkedIn validation completion.
Hook archetype rotation across Sprint 4:
- S4.1: Contrarian thesis with data point ("The Stanford CS grad is no longer the right hire...")
- S4.2: Dialogue snippet from anonymized interview ("'I use AI to ship 3x faster.' Every candidate said it...")
Both chapters reference the existing /blog/agency-ai-five-questions/ artifact (which becomes dual-purpose: vendor screening AND hiring interview); the Module 4B.2 7-question script EXTENDS the agency 5-question script with 2 new individual-hire-specific questions (Q6 refactor judgment, Q7 PR disagreement with AI suggestion).
All gates clean: 0 em-dashes, 0 banned words, 0 JT service CTAs, 0 React/Node/Java as lead stack across all 2 posts + 2 artifacts.
