Session Handoff — Skool Classroom Extractor + Chase AI content + dashboard libraries

Where it started

Began as help recovering an accidentally-closed Claude session (answer: Ctrl+Shift+T / /resume; sessions auto-save to ~/.claude/projects/<slug>/*.jsonl). Turned into: extract all content from the Chase AI Skool community before it could disappear, surface it on the CEO dashboard, and package the whole process as a shareable skill for Sarah. Sondra's standing rules in play: never auto-delete; yt-dlp-first then Supadata for transcripts; navy/gold/cream dashboard; handoffs go to a project folder, never My-Command-Center.

Decisions locked + what shipped

• Cracked Skool's private file-download flow: POST https://api2.skool.com/files/{file_id}/download-url (cookie auth, empty {} body) returns a CloudFront pre-signed URL. Documented in C:\Users\srver\.claude\projects\c--Users-srver-AIOS-Workspace-aios-starter-kit\memory\reference_skool_classroom_extractor.md.
• Built c:\Users\srver\AIOS-Workspace\aios-starter-kit\scripts\skool_classroom_download.py (course tree + files + video links) and ...\scripts\skool_pull_transcripts.py (yt-dlp-first, youtube_transcript_api, Supadata only with --use-supadata).
• Downloaded all 8 Chase AI courses to c:\Users\srver\AIOS-Workspace\aios-starter-kit\PROJECTS\Chase AI\ — 159 video links, 36 files, 25 transcripts. (Codex = 1 lesson; Agency Protocol Phase 2 = 53 text lessons, no video; Phase 3 = locked tier.)
• Transcripts: first run used Supadata (paid) before being caught — burned 21 credits (79 remain), stopped. Puller rewritten to yt-dlp-first/free. Remaining ~133 pending a free pass once YouTube's 429 throttle (triggered by the bulk attempt) clears.
• Dashboard: deployed 3 new pages live to ceodash.sondraverva.com — conversation-library.html (75 sessions, date/time + titles), skool-communities.html (80 communities, 6 categories), chase-ai-library.html (8 courses). Added 2 buttons to ceo-dashboard\build\home-base.template.html. Generators: ceo-dashboard\build\build_skool_communities.py, ceo-dashboard\build\build_conversation_library.py.
• Shareable skill for Sarah: c:\Users\srver\AIOS-Workspace\aios-starter-kit\shares\skool-classroom-extractor\ + shares\skool-classroom-extractor.zip (portable, own-login, yt-dlp transcripts, no credentials inside). --list verified working.
• Sarah delivery plan: give her the entire shares\skool-classroom-extractor\ folder via Google Drive (zip not required — folder is identical). She moves it into C:\Users\<her>\.claude\skills\, then tells her Claude "set up the Skool classroom extractor." Copy-paste message for Sarah was provided in chat; the same instructions also live in the folder's README.md. Prereq: Sarah needs Claude Code already installed.
• Memory: created reference_skool_classroom_extractor.md; added its line to MEMORY.md.

Key files for next session

• c:\Users\srver\AIOS-Workspace\aios-starter-kit\scripts\skool_classroom_download.py and ...\scripts\skool_pull_transcripts.py — the extraction tools any SOP will document.
• c:\Users\srver\AIOS-Workspace\aios-starter-kit\shares\skool-classroom-extractor\SKILL.md — the portable workflow already written in step form (good SOP seed).
• C:\Users\srver\.claude\projects\c--Users-srver-AIOS-Workspace-aios-starter-kit\memory\reference_skool_classroom_extractor.md — the auth/file-download mechanism.
• c:\Users\srver\AIOS-Workspace\aios-starter-kit\PROJECTS\Skool Posting Engine\ (README + scripts: skool_build_registry / skool_publish / skool_comment) — the earlier Skool-CLI work the SOPs also cover (posting/commenting/liking).
• Memory files touched: reference_skool_classroom_extractor.md, MEMORY.md.

Running state

• Background processes: ba75kxpej (7-course download) — COMPLETED. bj5n4h9h6 (transcript pull) — STOPPED via TaskStop. Neither is running; nothing to kill.
• Dev servers / ports: none.
• Open worktrees / branches: none. (Many uncommitted changes this session — new scripts, 3 dashboard pages + template edit, PROJECTS/Chase AI/ content, the shares skill — nothing committed.)

Verification — how to confirm things still work

• python -X utf8 scripts/skool_classroom_download.py --community chase-ai --course-id d859d0fa8c874b1dba0255cf3c164e96 --out "PROJECTS/Chase AI/Claude Code Masterclass" — re-pulls the course (idempotent).
• python -X utf8 "shares/skool-classroom-extractor/scripts/skool_classroom_download.py" --community chase-ai --list --session scripts/data/skool_session.json — lists 8 courses (proves the portable skill works).
• python -X utf8 ceo-dashboard/build/build_conversation_library.py and ...build_skool_communities.py — regenerate the dashboard pages.

Deferred + open questions

• Deferred: finish transcripts free — python -X utf8 scripts/skool_pull_transcripts.py --base "PROJECTS/Chase AI" once YouTube's 429 clears (idempotent, skips the 25 done).
• Deferred: Agency Protocol Phase 2 = 53 text-only lessons; their lesson bodies were not captured (would need a per-lesson content pass).
• Open: Sarah delivery — Sondra was uploading the shares\skool-classroom-extractor\ folder to Google Drive to send Sarah; confirm she got it installed and logged in.
• Open: "under Claude Desktop" — Conversation Library was built from Claude Code (VS Code) sessions; confirm whether Sondra also wants the separate Claude Desktop app conversations.
• Open: community categorization (78/80 auto-sorted) — Sondra to flag any wrong ones.
• Open: drop the skool-classroom-extractor skill into Sondra's own ~/.claude/skills/ too?
• Open: commit this session's work to git (currently all uncommitted).

Pick up here

This is what Sondra explicitly wants to do next session: build SOPs (in SOPs/, sop-<slug>.md -> build_sops.py -> shareable HTML) for the full set of things done this session: (1) building a CLI from a web app with Claude Code (HAR/reverse-engineering -> Printing Press pattern), (2) connecting to Skool (session capture + api2.skool.com cookie auth), (3) posting / commenting / replying / liking, (4) classroom extraction (the download-url crack), (5) transcripts (yt-dlp -> Supadata), (6) packaging a capability as a shareable skill. Sondra keeps the master list of SOP topics and starts the list next session — do not build SOPs early in the current session; wait for her list.
