The Thursday 3 · Issue 1 · Thursday, May 7, 2026
Three workflows that put you in the top 1% of CEOs.
|
|
Welcome to issue one. The three workflows below are the ones making the biggest difference at Headphones.com and Lantern.is this month.
|
|
01 · Workflow
A Claude that gets smarter with every session
|
|
The outcome
Stop re-explaining the same context every new session. /recall pulls relevant chunks from your notes (Obsidian, meeting summaries, project docs, strategy memos) into the chat in under a second.
|
|
The setup
Two local tools, no cloud. QMD (the open-source local search engine by Tobi Lütke) indexes any folder of markdown notes you point it at. /recall is a custom slash command in Claude Code that runs QMD against your current question and feeds the top results back into the session.
|
|
Your move
Install QMD, point it at your notes folder, build the index, add the /recall command, and run it once on a real project. Stop when you've watched it pull correct context. 30 minutes.

02 · Workflow
Work that runs while you sleep
|
|
The outcome
A weekly task you used to do yourself runs on Anthropic's servers with your laptop closed. SEO audit, pipeline review, competitor scrape, board-prep digest. It runs whether you're in a meeting or on a flight.
|
|
The setup
Build the workflow once in Claude Code. Point it at a trigger (daily, weekly, on-event), wire any third-party APIs you need (CRM, analytics, email), then deploy it as a Routine. Anthropic runs it on their infrastructure on schedule.
|
|
Your move
Pick one recurring task on your calendar this week: lead scoring, expense review, Monday metrics digest. Build it in Claude Code, test it manually once, deploy it as a Routine before Friday. 60-90 minutes.

03 · Workflow
Mine your meetings for leverage
|
|
The outcome
Turn every meeting you record in Granola into searchable, AI-readable markdown. Once your conversations live as text Claude can read, every other workflow gets cheaper: Monday pipeline pulls, customer-theme tracking, promise-keeping, sales coaching, board-prep digests. Each one is a single prompt away.
|
|
The setup
Two pieces. Granola already records and transcribes; export the transcripts to markdown into a folder Claude can read (your Obsidian vault works perfectly). Point QMD at the same folder (workflow #1) so transcripts join your notes in one searchable index. The pattern: meetings → markdown → everything.
|
|
Your move
Export your last 30 days of Granola transcripts to markdown. Drop them in your notes folder. Run qmd embed. Then ask Claude something specific you'd never ask in a normal session. "What's the most common objection I'm hearing from CTOs this month?" Or "list every commitment I made on customer calls last week." 30 minutes.

P.S. All three of these landed in the last month. The harness shifts faster than the calendar; the CEOs who install on the week-of are the ones compounding.
