AI Systems Claude Code skills

Vote on the AI systems I should package next.

Not tools I found. Not generic AI tips. These are the systems I actually run inside Ship Lean, turned into public starter versions.

Two are being packaged first. Four are open for demand. Pick the system you want, get the current freebie, and I will build the strongest requests into starter drops.

ok useful, not the whole machine.

PUBLIC_PACKAGE.MD

Starter, not source dump

The free version gives the pattern. The paid version gives the chain: skill folder, commands, agents, examples, docs, and update path.

Recommendation

This is the product ladder, not a resources page.

These systems start as free public versions, then the winners become full kits. That keeps the page useful now without dumping the whole Ship Lean operating system before it is ready.

Starter systems

Pick the system you would actually use.

Each card is a real Ship Lean workflow I use or am packaging. The first two are already at the front of the queue. The rest ship in the order people ask for them.

Product path

Free starters first. Full kits after demand.

I am not opening checkout for six unfinished products. The clean move is to publish useful starter drops, watch what people pull for, then build the first paid kit around the strongest signal.

Free Starter drops Lite skills, prompts, maps, and setup notes. Useful enough to run, stripped down enough to keep the full machine private.

$49-$79 Individual kits One complete system with the skill folder, commands, examples, setup docs, walkthrough, and troubleshooting.

$147-$197 Ship Lean Stack The bundled content, research, and operator systems once the strongest starters prove demand.

Later Member updates New systems, walkthroughs, changelog access, and office hours if the kits earn recurring support.

Join the full Stack waitlist.

Want the bundled version when it exists? Join the Stack list. You will get the current freebie now and the founding-price note when the first full kit is ready.

Built by Chris

This is still a personal brand.

Ship Lean is not a faceless template shop. It is Chris building in public, packaging the useful parts, and keeping the strongest internal systems private until they are ready to become products.

Decision filter

Nothing here is theoretical.

The page only earns its keep if it helps builders get a useful starter, shows which systems are worth packaging, or proves the work came from the Ship Lean desk.
