COMPLETE BUILD GUIDE

AI BUSINESS OS 🏒

Run the whole business with 6 AI agents + Claude Code

Sales β†’ Marketing β†’ Support β†’ Finance β†’ Operations β†’ CEO Report

How this works, honestly:Β you build 6 AI specialists in Claude Code β€” one per department β€” plus a CEO agent that combines them into a daily report. Three rules that keep you safe: (1) they draft and organize; you approveΒ anything that sends, posts, or spends. Nothing auto-fires. (2) They never fake data β€” no invented leads, revenue, or replies; if a number isn't real, it's flagged. (3) An integration only works once youΒ connect it β€” until then, agents work from files. This makes you faster and more organized, not "hands-off."

REPORTING / CEO

Each agent does its job and writes to a shared file. The CEO agent reads all of them and hands you one clear daily briefing.

🧰 Recommended Beginner Tool Stack


☐ Claude CodeΒ + a terminal β€” the brain of the whole thing

☐ Web searchΒ β€” for the Sales + Marketing research

☐ Optional connectors (add when ready): Gmail (email), Google Calendar (scheduling), a CRM like HubSpot (leads), Google Sheets (finance/data), a database if you scale. Everything runs from plain files until you connect these.

The data/ files are the shared memory β€” each agent writes its own, the CEO agent reads them all.

⚑ Beginner Setup


1.Β Install Claude Code. 2.Β Make the folder + open it:

mkdir business-os && cd business-os

claude

3.Β Paste the Master Build Prompt (bottom) β†’ it scaffolds everything.

4.Β Fill business.md with what you do, your offer, and your customers. Ready.

🀝 How Agents Share Information


Simple: each agent reads the files it needsΒ and writes one file of its ownΒ in data/. Sales writes 1-sales.md, Marketing writes 2-marketing.md, and so on. The CEO agent reads all six and produces the daily report. No complex database needed to start β€” just shared text files.

πŸ’Ό THE 6 AGENTS


1️⃣ Sales Agent

Does

Finds + organizes leads, researches prospects, drafts outreach, tracks follow-ups

Needs

business.md (who you sell to)

Outputs

1-sales.md (leads, drafts, follow-up dates)

Tools

Web search, CRM (HubSpot), Gmail β€” you send

Prompt:Β "Sales Agent. Read business.md. Find and organize leads that fit my ideal customer (public sources only), research each one for a genuine hook, and draft personalized outreach with easy opt-outs. Track who needs a follow-up and when. Drafts only β€” I send everything. Never invent leads or replies. Output to data/1-sales.md." β†’ feeds Marketing + CEO.

2️⃣ Marketing Agent

Does

Researches content ideas, drafts posts/campaigns/emails/ads, tracks performance

Needs

business.md + 1-sales.md (what's landing)

Outputs

2-marketing.md (calendar, drafts, metrics)

Tools

Web search, email tool, social schedulers β€” you post

Prompt:Β "Marketing Agent. Read business.md + data/1-sales.md. Suggest content ideas, draft posts, campaigns, emails, and ad copy in my voice, and keep a simple content calendar. If I paste real performance numbers, summarize what's working. Drafts only β€” I approve and publish. Never invent metrics or results. Output to data/2-marketing.md." β†’ feeds CEO.

3️⃣ Support Agent

Does

Answers common questions from your knowledge, escalates big issues, tracks follow-ups

Needs

business.md + an FAQ/knowledge file

Outputs

3-support.md (draft replies, escalations)

Tools

Gmail/helpdesk β€” you send

Prompt:Β "Support Agent. Use business.md and my FAQ/knowledge file to draft friendly, accurate replies to customer questions. If something is sensitive (refund, complaint, legal, anything you're unsure of), flag it for me instead of answering. Track anything needing follow-up. Drafts only β€” I review before sending. Never make up policies or facts. Output to data/3-support.md." β†’ feeds CEO.

4️⃣ Finance Agent

Does

Organizes revenue/expenses, monitors invoices, flags oddities, writes plain summaries

Needs

Data YOU provide (Sheets/CSV/exports)

Outputs

4-finance.md (summary + flags)

Tools

Google Sheets, accounting exports

Prompt:Β "Finance Agent. Using ONLY the financial data I give you, organize revenue and expenses, track which invoices are outstanding, flag anything unusual (big changes, duplicates, overdue), and write a simple plain-English summary. Use only real numbers β€” never estimate or invent figures. Output to data/4-finance.md." β†’ feeds CEO.

Not a substitute for a professional.Β The Finance Agent organizes and summarizes β€” it is notΒ an accountant, bookkeeper, or tax advisor, and nothing it produces is financial advice. Always have a qualified professional handle your actual books and taxes.

5️⃣ Operations Agent

Does

Organizes tasks, tracks projects + deadlines, runs repeatable workflows, spots bottlenecks

Needs

Your task list + calendar

Outputs

5-operations.md (tasks, deadlines, blockers)

Tools

Google Calendar, task apps

Prompt:Β "Operations Agent. Organize my tasks and projects, track deadlines, and highlight bottlenecks or anything at risk of slipping. Suggest the order I should tackle things and note repeatable workflows worth automating. Use only real tasks/dates I give you. Output to data/5-operations.md." β†’ feeds CEO.

6️⃣ Reporting / CEO Agent

Does

Combines all 5 departments into ONE daily CEO report

Needs

data/1 through 5

Outputs

6-ceo-report.md

Tools

None (reads files)

Prompt:Β "CEO Agent. Read data/1-sales through 5-operations. Write ONE daily CEO report with sections: Sales, Marketing, Support, Finance, Operations, ⚠️ Problems needing attention, 🎯 Top priorities, and βœ… Recommended next actions. Be concise and honest β€” only use what the other agents actually reported; never invent progress. Output to data/6-ceo-report.md."

πŸ”Œ Connecting Your Business Tools


Start with files, then connect real tools when you're ready. Each needs setup on your side (Claude will guide you):

☐ GmailΒ β†’ draft + organize emails (you approve sends)

☐ Google CalendarΒ β†’ deadlines + scheduling for Operations

☐ CRM (HubSpot etc.)Β β†’ real lead + deal data for Sales

☐ Google SheetsΒ β†’ feed Finance real numbers

☐ DatabasesΒ β†’ when you outgrow spreadsheets

Never let an agent claim a tool is "connected" unless you've actually set it up.Β Until then, it works from the files you give it.

πŸ” Security Tips (Important)


☐ Keep API keys in a .env file, never hard-coded or committed to GitHub

☐ Add .env and data/ to .gitignore so business data stays private

☐ Use read-only keys where possible; never give an agent power to move money

☐ Keep a human approval step before anything sends, posts, or pays

☐ Don't paste customer personal data into places you wouldn't want it stored

☐ Back up your data/ folder regularly

🏬 Complete Example (Fictional)


Business:Β "BrightClean," a small home-cleaning company.

Agent

What it does for BrightClean

Sales

Finds local property managers, drafts intro emails (owner sends)

Marketing

Drafts "before/after" posts + a spring-cleaning promo

Support

Drafts replies to "can you do next Tuesday?" from the FAQ

Finance

Organizes the week's invoices, flags 2 that are overdue

Operations

Maps the cleaning schedule, flags a double-booked slot

CEO

"3 new leads Β· 2 overdue invoices Β· fix Tue double-booking first"

Illustrative example β€” not a real business or a promise of results.

⌨️ Example Commands


# Run one department

"Run the Sales Agent"

# Run the whole business, pausing for my approval

"Run all agents in order, then give me the CEO report"

# Just the morning briefing

"Read the data folder and write today's CEO report"

πŸŽ›οΈ MASTER CLAUDE CODE BUILD PROMPT


Paste this into Claude Code inside your business-os folder β€” it scaffolds the whole project:

"Build me an AI Business OS. Create this structure: a CLAUDE.md orchestrator, a business.md for my business details, a .claude/agents/ folder with sales.md, marketing.md, support.md, finance.md, operations.md, and ceo.md, and a data/ folder for their shared output files (1-sales.md … 6-ceo-report.md).

The 6 agents run in order: Sales β†’ Marketing β†’ Support β†’ Finance β†’ Operations β†’ CEO. Each reads the files it needs and writes its own file in data/. The CEO agent reads all five and writes one daily report with sections: Sales, Marketing, Support, Finance, Operations, Problems needing attention, Top priorities, and Recommended next actions.

Hard rules for every agent: (1) DRAFT and ORGANIZE only β€” never send an email, post, ad, payment, or CRM edit without my explicit approval; nothing auto-fires. (2) NEVER invent data β€” no fake leads, replies, metrics, revenue, or progress; use only what's real, and flag gaps. (3) Never claim a tool (Gmail, Calendar, CRM, Sheets) is connected unless I've set it up β€” otherwise work from files. (4) The Finance Agent organizes and summarizes only; it is NOT an accountant and gives no financial advice. (5) Keep API keys in .env, and add .env + data/ to .gitignore.

When you're done, set up each agent file with its role + prompt from my guide, then ask me to fill in business.md and tell me exactly how to run the system."
