The parts that kept working.

Every resource here came out of a real build, not a blog post. If it is on this page, I use it myself.

Free, and documented well enough to use without me. Most ask for a name and an email so I know who is finding it useful.

01

HTML to PDF that actually paginates

Proposals, reports and client documents that survive the export to PDF: page breaks you control, colours that survive print, and a script that checks the pages before you send. Installs into Claude in about a minute.

02

Mapping a complex business structure

Written for commercial finance brokers: why complex lending files are hard, what an entity mapping review does about it, and two working demonstrations on fictional groups, one healthy and one difficult. Every figure is synthetic, and every figure traces to a source.

03

Impeccable, the design skill this website is built with

Not mine, but recommended without reservation. Impeccable, by Paul Bakaus, is a free design skill for AI coding agents. It strips the generic look from AI-generated interfaces and keeps your existing design system intact while the agent works, so the design you approved stays the design you ship. This website is built and maintained with it. Install it from the Claude Code marketplace or with npx impeccable install.

04

GitHub 101, made practical

Written for people who make things but do not write code. You do not need to learn Git commands, because Claude can run every one of them. The guide gives you the six steps, the rules that protect your work, the exact phrases to say to Claude, and a playground where you can see what the commands do. It pairs with Git for non-coders, a free Claude skill that checks GitHub before it changes anything, writes pull requests in plain English and never presses merge for you.

Retire at 60 or 65? A scenario calculator for advisers

Day one of 100 real AI use cases, one a day, with the tool to go with it. An interactive calculator for Australian financial advisers to use with clients: two retirement ages side by side, year by year, with the age the money runs out. Below it is the prompt to build your own in ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or Copilot, and four talking points for the meeting. Illustration only, not financial advice.

06

Practice brand skill: every client tool in your own colours

One brand file your AI assistant reads every time, so every calculator, chart, summary and document comes out in your colours, fonts and voice, with the right disclaimer. A skill for Claude, the same file for ChatGPT, Gemini and Copilot, a worked example, the first recipe, and a six step guide as a PDF.

More is coming

I write these up as they prove themselves in client work, which means the list grows slowly and nothing goes on it early. If you want to know when the next one lands, take the resource above and you are on the list.

Tools are the easy part.

Deciding which AI use cases are worth building, proving them, then delivering them is the work that actually moves a business. That is the AI Reality Check.
