Ace Level 1

Run your business on Claude Code.

Ace Level 1 is the free preview of the Ace system: a starter workspace that captures your work, tracks your goals, and saves itself to git on demand. Clone it, type start here, and Claude walks you through a 10-minute setup.

Free preview Public · MIT licensed 11 agents · hooks · OKR templates

Work vanishes into scrollback

Fixed by logging hooks.

Goals live in someone's head

Fixed by OKRs as YAML.

Git needs a translator

Fixed by natural-language sync.

The brain · CLAUDE.md

One file Claude reads every session.

Where does context come from?

CLAUDE.md defines the structure, the conventions, and how Claude behaves in your repo. A new teammate clones the workspace and Claude already knows the house rules.

Memory · Hooks + logs

Every session leaves a trail.

What did we ship last week?

Python hooks nudge each chat to log work as it happens. The session-logger agent rolls those notes into monthly session logs. The repo becomes a cumulative memory Claude reads on the next session.

Goals · OKR YAML

Objectives Claude can read.

Are we on track?

The goals-onboarding agent walks you from annual objectives to quarterly KRs, initiatives, and tasks, all stored as YAML. Say weekly review and Claude collects the actuals and drafts the CEO email.

Goals in files beat goals in heads. Claude tracks what it can read.
Git · workspace-sync

Version control in plain English.

Can the whole team just save?

Save my work commits and pushes. What changed since Monday summarizes. Undo the last change reverts. The workspace-sync agent translates, so nobody on the team has to learn git.

Markdown, YAML, and a few Python hooks. Your repo, your data.
