Your best thinking dies in three places: a Notion doc nobody reopens, a Slack thread nobody can find, and a slide deck that gets rebuilt from scratch every quarter. Meanwhile every AI tool you touch starts from zero, because nothing you know lives anywhere it can find it. 

GitHub isn’t Jira with a different logo. It’s not just where engineers go when something breaks. It’s durable memory for what your product team believes, decides, and ships, and it’s the context your AI tools have been missing. 

In this live, hands-on session, Dean Peters and Kenny Kranseler build five GitHub plays from scratch. On screen. In the wild. No net. No coding required. You’ll leave with a working repo, not notes about one. 

Your strategy doc gets rewritten every Monday. Your GitHub repo doesn’t have to. 

What You’ll Learn: 

  • Context. One versioned home for strategy, research, and decisions, built for your team and your AI to use.
  • Communications. A place to pressure-test ideas before they turn into expensive commitments.
  • Confidence. Assumptions, experiments, and evidence, all connected so one discovery informs the next.
  • Constitution. Guardrails GitHub enforces, so nobody has to become the process cop.
  • Community. A real front door for ideas and requests, with a visible record of what happened next.
