Have Claude Code interview you and fill in identity, voice, and taste markdown files
Feed the generated brain to Cursor before drafting blog posts or scripts
Update feedback-memory.md after each round so the agent learns what reads as off
Share a creative brain with a collaborator so they can match your tone
Most of the work is the interview itself, which can take an hour or more depending on how deeply you answer the taste questions.
Creative Brain is a small repository designed to be handed to a coding agent like Claude Code, Cursor, Hermes, or OpenClaw. You clone the repo, open it inside one of those tools, and tell the agent to use the repo to interview you and build your creative brain. The agent then asks questions about your taste, voice, references, current projects, and creative instincts, and writes the answers into a set of structured markdown files. The author's argument is that asking an AI to write or design from nothing tends to produce generic output. A creative brain is a folder of context the agent reads first, so it knows what you make, what your voice sounds like, what feels corny to you, what references shape your taste, what feels alive versus dead, and what you are working on right now. The intended audience is creatives, builders, designers, editors, writers, operators, and other internet people who want AI output that matches their taste. The repo contains a prompts folder with the agent run instructions, a templates folder with blank files the agent copies and fills in, an examples folder with sample fragments, and an outputs folder where your generated brain lives. After the interview, the agent should produce files such as identity.md, voice.md, taste.md, anti-slop.md, references.md, content-system.md, ideas.md, current-state.md, and feedback-memory.md. The README describes a feedback loop: the agent interviews you, drafts a brain, gets your feedback, updates feedback-memory.md, and uses the brain for future work. The author stresses that you should not let the agent skip the interview, since writing before understanding your taste tends to produce weak output.
