£50 / $65

##what it does (4)
>Reads your vault.
Every Markdown file. Every Dataview query result. Every YAML frontmatter line. Your projects, your people, your decisions, your training. It has the full picture before it answers a single question.
>Follows your rules.
The 10 .claude/rules/ files tell it how you work. Voice rules. Revenue rules. Workflow rules. Anything it drafts comes out sounding like you, not like generic AI.
>Runs your skills.
Skills are reusable workflows. Type one slash command, the agent executes the whole sequence: pull data, draft output, stage for your approval.
>Compounds every week.
New rule today, new skill tomorrow. Last month's mistake becomes next month's skip-list. Six months in, the system is more capable than any SaaS you could buy.

##how it works (4 steps)
01
Install Claude Code
Anthropic's terminal-based AI agent. Free download at claude.ai/code. Available on Mac, Windows, Linux.
02
Drop the Overseer files in your vault
CLAUDE.md goes at the root, .claude/ folder alongside. Same vault as your Vault 27 starter. Five-minute setup.
03
Open Claude Code in the folder
Run `claude` in the terminal from your vault directory. The agent reads CLAUDE.md on every session, follows your rules, runs your skills.
04
Use a skill
Type `/morning-brief` and the agent pulls your Garmin data, scans your projects, drafts your day. Same for weekly-review and client-brief.

##faq (8)
?Do I need Vault 27 first?
Yes. Overseer is the intelligence layer that sits on top of the memory layer. The free Vault 27 starter is the memory layer. Download that first at sammillan.com/vault, then Overseer plugs in.
?What is Claude Code, exactly?
Anthropic's terminal-based AI coding agent. Free to install (you bring your Anthropic API key). It reads files, edits files, runs commands. Overseer is a configuration pack that turns it from a generic coding agent into a personal OS for your business.
?Is this just CLAUDE.md and some markdown?
Yes. That's the point. No SaaS, no dashboards, no API to break. Plain text files in your vault. You can read every rule, edit every skill, delete what doesn't work. The portability is the moat.
?When does it actually ship?
Q3 2026. I'm using the same files on my own system every day. The pack is the same setup with personal data stripped, plus a setup guide and worked examples. Waitlist subscribers get £10 off either tier and 30-day early access before public launch.
?Why two tiers?
Core (£50) is for people who want a clean foundation: identity file, rules, and the five most-used workflow skills. Pro (£120) is for serious operators who want the full kit plus every future skill I ship. The price gap is real because the value gap is real.
?What does lifetime updates mean?
Every new skill I build for my own system gets stripped of personal data and dropped into the Pro repo. You get a notification when an update lands. One-time purchase, no subscription, perpetual access.
?What if I don't use Anthropic's Claude?
The CLAUDE.md format works with Cursor, OpenAI Codex CLI, and any agent that reads a rules file at the project root. The skills are markdown — they work for any LLM that can follow instructions. Tested heaviest on Claude Code.
?Refund policy?
Full refund within 14 days, no questions. The system is files in a folder. If it doesn't click for you in two weeks, it's not going to click in six months.
