Day 2 · 4:00–4:30

Collaborating with others with AI

Two days of building. One shared place. Let's put your work next to everyone else's — in a form your future teammates (human and AI) can actually read and remix.

AI isn't a tool you use alone. It's a teammate you share context with — and shared context needs a shared place.

Paraphrased from Tal Raviv's How to use AI as a team. Read it on the train home.

That shared place, for most teams that build together, is GitHub. Don't let the word "engineer" scare you off — at its heart, GitHub is just a filing cabinet. Every person on the team (and every agent working for them) reads from it and writes to it. Skills, specs, docs, code: all in one place everyone can see.

In the next 30 minutes, you're going to put a card in that filing cabinet — the app you shipped yesterday, the spec of your skill, and the ideas you're chasing next. Not the runnable code. The context.

🎯
The goal
By 4:30, your card is live on the Grrls gallery — next to everyone else's.
1

Make sure you have a GitHub account

2 min

If you did the pre-work: skip to Step 2.

If not: open github.com/signup in a new tab and create an account. Use whichever email you want associated with your public work.

Pick a username you like
Your username shows up on every commit, forever. It's also the URL of your profile (github.com/your-username). You don't need to be clever — first name + last initial is totally fine.
2

Connect Claude Code to your GitHub

3 min

We want Claude to be able to clone, commit, and push for you — so you don't have to learn every git command tonight.

In Claude Code, run:

C Paste into Claude Code
/install-github-app

Follow the prompts — sign in with GitHub in your browser, authorize the app, and come back to your terminal. When it's done, check that it worked:

C Paste into Claude Code
List the repos on my GitHub account so I know the connection is working.
If you get stuck
Raise your hand. Auth issues are the most common friction point in this whole session — we'd rather spend two minutes unblocking you now than have you miss the push moment at the end.
3

Get the grrls repo onto your computer

3 min

We've added you as a collaborator to the shared repo. Now pull a copy of it onto your machine so you can add your skill.

C Paste into Claude Code
Clone the hilgrid/grrls-site repo from GitHub into my Desktop folder. Then cd into it and tell me what's inside so I know we're in the right place.

Claude will ask for permission to run git clone. Say yes. When it's done, it'll tell you the path — that's where your copy of the repo lives on your laptop.

4

Put your two days in the gallery

8 min

We're not pushing runnable code — we're pushing context. The app you shipped yesterday, the spec you wrote today, and the ideas you're chasing next.

Why not the skill folder itself?
Your skill probably talks to your Gmail or Calendar. Those connections live on your Claude, not in the skill files — so someone else couldn't just run it anyway. A spec is portable. Anyone can read it in 30 seconds and remix it for their own stack.

We've shipped a slash command in the repo that does all the heavy lifting. Just run:

C Paste into Claude Code
/add-my-card

Claude will ask you for your name, LinkedIn, GitHub handle, Day 1 Lovable URL, Day 2 skill details, and any other ideas you had. Answer as they come. It'll show you the plan, then write the files into party/team/your-name/.

Don't have a spec written down?
Tell Claude where your skill files live when it asks. It'll read them and draft the spec for you. If you don't have a skill file at all, just describe what it does — that works too.
5

Commit and push

3 min

This is the moment. "Commit" = save a snapshot. "Push" = send it to GitHub so everyone can see it.

C Paste into Claude Code
Commit my new gallery card and push to main. Show me the git status first so I know exactly what's going up.

Claude will show you what it's about to commit before it pushes. Read it. If it looks right, say yes.

6

Go see everyone else's work

5 min

The point of a shared place is that you can read from it, too.

Open the skill library or the team folder on GitHub. Pick someone whose skill sounds interesting. Then, back in Claude Code:

C Paste into Claude Code

This is the whole loop, in miniature: someone shared their context, you read it, and now you can build on it. Multiply that by a team of 15 — or 500 — and you start to see what Raviv is getting at.

The bigger idea

This is how teams work with AI.

Shared repo. Shared context. Async contributions. A place where every teammate — human or agent — can read what came before and add what's next. You just did it. Where to go from here →
