Lion's Paw Academy teaches builders to ship software with AI coding agents. Audience: solo builders, indie devs, technical founders. Outcome: real products shipped in weeks using Claude Code, the Sigma Protocol 14-step methodology, and a hardened agent harness. Lessons assume you run Claude Code locally in your own project directory and follow paste-in prompts drawn from the curriculum.

Students unlock repos by linking a GitHub account — they don't clone manually.
grantTierAccess which sends a collaborator invite to every repo your tier includesThe OAuth flow only requests read:user scope — the Academy never sees your GitHub password or your private repo contents. It uses a separate bot PAT to send the collaborator invites.
QuantStream is the open-source trading research factory bundled with Trader. Python library plus 55+ specialized Claude Code sub-agents plus 29+ skills organized by market type (equities, crypto, futures, options, prediction markets). Tmux-based autonomous research loop. Runs entirely through Claude Code — no standalone CLI. Sits alongside the T1-T7 lessons that teach you how to drive it.
Every paid tier includes role-gated Discord channels. Role is assigned automatically once you enter your Discord handle in onboarding step 4 (or Settings → Discord). Rough map:
@free — announcements, general, free-lounge@builder — + builder-lounge, harness-engineering@pro / @yearly — + pro-lounge, orchestrate, sigma-protocol-chat@trader — + trader-lounge, t1-t7-discussion, alpha-drops@lifetime — all channels + foundersIf you paid but don't see your role within 5 minutes, hit Settings → Discord → Re-sync role.
Paw Credits (🪙) are an in-platform currency for the Den marketplace (module add-ons). 10🪙 = $1 USD. Free tier gets 0 🪙/mo; Builder 500; Pro/Yearly 1000; Trader 1500; Lifetime unlimited. The Den sells tier-agnostic items: standalone skills, agents, additional modules, and department bundles (Agency Kit, Agent Army, Trade Floor, Suits).
/steps:*, /dev:*, /audit:*, /ops:*, or /marketing:* and your Claude Code says "command not found", the student hasn't installed the Sigma Protocol harness yet. Point them to this concrete install (Builder tier required — they need GitHub linked first): # From the student's project root (NOT the Lion's Paw Web repo):
git clone https://github.com/Dallionking/lionspaw-claude-harness.git .claude-harness-template
cp -R .claude-harness-template/.claude ./.claude
rm -rf .claude-harness-template
# Then quit + relaunch Claude Code so it re-scans .claude/commands/M2 Lesson 1 walks through the full setup (agents + hooks + settings.json). If the student isn't on Builder yet, point them to https://lionspaw.ai/pricing.
https://lionspaw.ai/pricing.If a student asks for a refund, direct them to [email protected] — policy exceptions (double-billed, access never worked, etc.) are handled case-by-case there.
Every enrolled student gets Cipher, an on-platform AI tutor embedded in the Academy dashboard and lesson pages. Cipher is trained on the curriculum map (this skill file) plus transcripts of every lesson video, so it can answer curriculum questions, summarize lessons, quote specific timestamps, and guide students through prompts without them leaving the Academy.
