🚨 BREAKING: Someone just gave Claude Code a complete software development brain.

It's called Superpowers and it makes Claude plan, test, and ship code without going off the rails.

No junior dev babysitting. No context loss. No hallucinated plans.

100% Opensource. Image
Superpowers is an agentic skills framework that gives Claude Code a full engineering workflow out of the box:

- Brainstorming (spec before code)
- Implementation planning (bite-sized tasks)
- Subagent-driven development (parallel execution)
- TDD enforcement (RED-GREEN-REFACTOR, no shortcuts)

All triggered automatically. You don't configure anything.
Here's what makes it different:

Most AI coding setups let Claude jump straight to writing code.

That's where everything goes wrong.

Superpowers forces Claude to:
→ Ask what you're actually building
→ Write a spec you can read in chunks
→ Build a plan clear enough for a junior dev to follow
→ Test before claiming it works

Structure first. Code second.

🚨 BREAKING: AI can now build trading algorithms like Goldman Sachs' algorithmic trading desk (for free).

Here are 15 insane Claude prompts that replace $500K/year quant strats (Save for later) Image
1. The Goldman Sachs Quant Strategy Architect

"You are a managing director on Goldman Sachs' algorithmic trading desk who designs systematic trading strategies managing $10B+ in institutional capital across global equity markets.

I need a complete quantitative trading strategy designed from scratch.

Architect:

- Strategy thesis: the specific market inefficiency or pattern this strategy exploits
- Universe selection: which instruments to trade and why (stocks, ETFs, futures, options)
- Signal generation logic: the exact mathematical rules that produce buy and sell signals
- Entry rules: precise conditions that must all be true before opening a position
- Exit rules: profit targets, stop losses, time-based exits, and signal reversal exits
- Position sizing model: how much capital to allocate per trade based on conviction and risk
- Risk parameters: maximum drawdown, position limits, sector exposure caps, and correlation limits
- Backtesting framework: how to properly test this strategy against historical data
- Benchmark selection: what to measure performance against and why
- Edge decay monitoring: how to detect when the strategy stops working

Format as a Goldman Sachs-style quantitative strategy memo with mathematical formulas, pseudocode logic, and risk parameter tables.

My trading focus: [DESCRIBE YOUR CAPITAL, PREFERRED MARKETS, TIME HORIZON, RISK TOLERANCE, AND ANY STRATEGIES YOU'VE EXPLORED]"
2. The Renaissance Technologies Backtesting Engine

"You are a senior quantitative researcher at Renaissance Technologies who builds rigorous backtesting systems that separate real alpha from overfitted noise across decades of market data.

I need a complete backtesting framework that gives me honest, reliable results.

Build:

- Backtesting engine architecture: event-driven or vectorized with pros and cons for my strategy type
- Transaction cost modeling: commissions, slippage, bid-ask spread, and market impact estimates
- Lookahead bias prevention: safeguards that ensure no future data leaks into past decisions
- Survivorship bias handling: accounting for delisted stocks and failed companies in historical data
- Walk-forward optimization: train on past data, test on unseen data in rolling windows
- Out-of-sample testing protocol: how to split data so results aren't just curve-fitting
- Monte Carlo simulation: randomize trade sequences to understand the range of possible outcomes
- Statistical significance tests: is the backtest return real or could it happen by random chance
- Complete Python backtesting code ready to run with sample data and visualization

Format as a quantitative research document with full Python code, statistical validation methodology, and result interpretation guidelines.

My strategy: [DESCRIBE YOUR TRADING STRATEGY, PREFERRED MARKET, TIME FRAME, AND AVAILABLE HISTORICAL DATA]"

BREAKING: Claude is insane for market research.

I reverse-engineered how analysts at Sequoia, a16z, and Y Combinator use it.

The difference is night and day.

Here are 10 prompts they don't want you to know (but I'm sharing anyway): Image
1. Market Sizing (TAM/SAM/SOM) from Scratch

Most founders pay consultants $3K just for a market sizing slide.

Claude does it in 30 seconds with actual logic:

Prompt:

You are a senior market research analyst at McKinsey.

Calculate the TAM, SAM, and SOM for [YOUR PRODUCT/SERVICE] in [TARGET MARKET].

For each:
- Show your math (top-down AND bottom-up approach)
- Cite the assumptions you're making
- Flag where your estimates are weakest
- Compare to any known market reports if applicable

Format as an investor-ready slide with numbers, not paragraphs. If my market is smaller than I think, tell me now.Image
2. Customer Persona Builder (Based on Real Data, Not Guesswork)

Consultants charge $5K to interview 10 people and hand you a persona deck with stock photos.

This is better:

Prompt:

You are a consumer insights researcher at Goldman Sachs

Build 3 detailed customer personas for [YOUR PRODUCT] in [INDUSTRY]

For each persona:
- Demographics + psychographics (what do they read, follow, trust?)
- Buying trigger: What event makes them Google your solution?
- Decision process: Who else influences their purchase?
- Objections: What's their #1 reason to say no?
- Exact phrases they'd use to describe their problem (for ad copy)



- No generic "35-year-old marketing manager" personas
- Base everything on behavioral patterns, not demographics
- Each persona should suggest a different acquisition channel

I scraped every single NotebookLM prompt that blew up on X, Reddit, and academic corners of the internet.

Turns out most people are using NotebookLM like a fancy note-taker.

That's insane.

It's a full-blown research assistant that can compress 10 hours of analysis into 20 seconds if you feed it the right instructions.

Here's what actually works:Image
Prompt 1: The Expert Synthesizer

"You are a [field] expert with 15 years of experience. Analyze these sources and identify the 3 core insights that practitioners in this field would immediately recognize as groundbreaking. For each insight, explain why it matters and what conventional wisdom it challenges."

This forces depth over breadth. The output is immediately usable.
Prompt 2: The Contradiction Hunter

"Compare these sources and identify every point where they contradict each other. For each contradiction, explain which source has stronger evidence and why. If both are credible, explain what factors might explain the disagreement."

Perfect for literature reviews and due diligence. Saves hours of manual cross-referencing.

BREAKING: Claude can now write business plans like a $25,000 McKinsey consultant (for free).

Here are 7 insane Claude Cowork prompts that can take your biz to $100k/month: (Save for later) Image
1. Claude Cowork can analyze your market like a McKinsey researcher.

"Research the {{INDUSTRY}} market. Find the total addressable market size, growth rate, top 5 competitors and their estimated revenue, and 3 underserved segments nobody is targeting. Output everything in a table. No fluff. Just data I can put in front of investors."

If your business plan has real numbers instead of guesses, investors take you seriously. Period.
2. Claude Cowork can tear apart your business model and find the holes.

"Here's my business idea: {{PASTE_IDEA}}. Act like a brutal VC partner. Find every weakness in this model — unit economics, customer acquisition cost assumptions, scalability bottlenecks, and competitive moats. List every hole and rate each one: FATAL, SERIOUS, or MINOR. No sugarcoating. Be ruthless."

The best business plans are the ones that already answered every hard question before the investor asks.
