Chris LaFay walked Dawn Audano through setting up the Classic City web dev toolchain from scratch: installing GitHub Desktop and Local WP, cloning the CCC WP core theme, and running Claude Code to spin up a new client site (a real estate law firm for Sherman Phalen). They got through WP Engine site creation, generating API credentials, and installing Node/Homebrew and default plugins before running out of time, with the site left mid-setup at the style guide stage. Also touched briefly on the Aeon Laser site being at risk for its planned launch next week due to Andrew losing work in a computer crash.

What came out of it
Decisions2
- Use the Sherman Phalen real estate law site as the live practice project for Dawn's onboarding instead of her sister's Squarespace site
- Enable bypass permissions mode in Claude Code going forward
Risks and blockers3
- Aeon Laser site going live next week looks unrealistic since Andrew lost a day and a half of work to a computer crash and content is still missing
- Aeon Laser still needs tracking pixels and clarity on the Zoho knowledge base before launch
- Pool Defense invoicing next week depends on Andrew finishing his last remaining task
Open questions2
- Will Node and Homebrew installs fully unblock the WP Engine site creation process for Dawn's machine?
- What are all the remaining phases (of the ~8) needed to finish the Sherman Phalen site setup?
Next steps4
- MeContinue the Sherman Phalen site setup phases (WP Engine site creation, local pull-down, default plugin install) where left off
- MeHave Claude write self-documentation at the stopping point so setup can resume later
- VendorFollow up with Andrew to finish his last outstanding task so Pool Defense can be invoiced next week
- ClientFollow up with Aeon Laser/Andrew on tracking pixels and the Zoho knowledge base question
