Build your exit while they're still paying you. Somewhere in your company there is a spreadsheet with your role on it. This playbook is what you run before anyone else opens it: an audit of how automatable your job actually is, the two or three things you already know that you could sell outside it, one lane chosen with the maths shown, and a 90-day build run by four AI workers while the salary still lands. There is a fast-track chapter for the person whose letter already arrived.
The employed person who can see it coming. You don't need to know anything about Claude beyond maybe having run the free audit prompt. Every worker configures itself through a first-run interview and explains why it's asking. No technical setup, no Gmail labels to build; START-HERE takes you from fresh install to your first report in one sitting.
Playbook 001 sells one specific business. This one sells the transition itself: audit, lane, build. Its audit routes you onward, to the AI Agency Playbook if your lane is local business, to the operator packs if your lane is owning assets, or straight into the 90-day freelance build in the document.
The rules every worker follows: nothing sends, posts, or publishes anything, ever. Drafts and files only. Nothing is deleted, ever. And every capability claim and market rate in your reports is cited from live research, or the report says "no reliable rate found" instead of inventing one.
One-time. Yours to keep. Four workers, the playbook, the toolkit, and lifetime membership of the Redundant community. Lifetime updates, no subscription.
Loading Days away. The newsletter hears first.Not sure? Run the free audit first. Ten minutes, no card.
The paid, deep sibling of the free prompt. A three-pass interview: your real task bundle with the time each takes, the surplus you could sell, and your constraints, runway, hours, location, risk appetite. Then live research with citations, then a designed, print-ready report: your Exposure Score out of 100 with the reasoning shown, every task rated NOW, SOON, or DURABLE with the specific cited threat, what the spreadsheet sees in two blunt sentences, your Sellable Surplus priced against cited market rates with one offer marked SELL THIS FIRST, a lane recommendation scored in an EV table against your own constraints, and a personalised 30-day start. It saves your answers, so the quarterly re-run only asks what changed.
Daily 7:30am triage of your personal inbox with your transition pipeline on top: applications if you're bridging, client conversations, leads for your offer. Drafts replies, files the noise, never archives and never deletes. Works with zero Gmail setup, and offers to build a simple label set itself, narrated, while you watch.
A one-page cited brief before any interview, pitch, or niche commitment. The person to reach, never guessed. The why-you angle mapped to your surplus. Two openers referencing something real and recent. And a straight GO, MAYBE, or SKIP verdict.
Every Friday at 3pm it interviews you about what you actually built that week, or reads your progress log, and drafts two or three LinkedIn or X posts in your voice, one marked post this first. An empty week gets said out loud, with one honest learning-in-public draft instead. It never posts, and it never invents a win.
Nine sections, written to be read in one sitting. The Spreadsheet Argument: your job is a bundle of tasks and AI only needs enough of the bundle. The Window: salary, access, and time without panic, all three vanish with the letter. How to read your audit. Choose One Lane, with the EV table across leverage-freelance, local agency, and owning assets. The 90-Day Build: thirteen weeks, three actions a week. The Money Rules: salary as runway, new income as bankroll, price on evidence, judge decisions not outcomes. The Letter Came: the fast-track, severance as bankroll, the bridge decision made by calculator, not pride. The four workers. And what not to do.
Lifetime community membership. The Redundant community on Skool, included for life: where the transitions run in the open, audits get compared, and the first sales get posted. Normally $29/month, never billed to you.
You need Claude Desktop with Cowork, a paid Claude subscription, and a working folder. The Gmail connector is only needed for the ops worker; the audit and research workers need nothing but the folder.
