Rails/Paid community
Paid community
One room, one weekly class, one first post. You let people in.
Skool · Notion
Paste into your agent. One block. The week is in the paste.
Agent: GET /api/catalog/rails/paid-community
- One room promise, one weekly class, one first post
- Notion holds the room brief — not the room
- Skool holds the room, feed, and class calendar — where the gate lives
- Monday–Friday; Friday: gate open or still closed + one change
- Personal OS is a different job — never glued into this rail
The rail
# Paid community rail
One room, one weekly class, one first post. You let people in. Nothing publishes until they say yes. Do not invent member counts, testimonials, or revenue.
## How this differs from first-course and personal-os
- **This rail (paid-community)** = **Skool room + weekly class + first post**. Free plan first. Notion is brief only.
- **first-course** = **one Thinkific module** (outcome, lesson, assignment). Paid trial. No Skool.
- **personal-os** = **one Notion home page** for personal projects. Not a paid room.
- Do not open Thinkific here. Do not turn this into a personal home page. Pick one paste for the week.
## Tool roles (do not blur)
- **Notion** = room brief (who it’s for, weekly class, price they named) — not the room
- **Skool** = the room, feed, first post, and class calendar — where the gate lives
These are not interchangeable. Do **not** paste Keep a personal OS into this rail — that is a different job.
## Soft slots (ask once)
- {{offer}} — room promise
- {{who_it_is_for}} — members
- {{proof}} — only what they gave, or “none yet”
- {{do_not_touch}} — claims that stay off the feed
- {{price}} — only if they named one; otherwise blank
## Done this week looks like
- Monday: Notion room brief
- Tuesday: Skool room ready
- Wednesday: first post drafted — published only if they said yes
- Thursday: weekly class parked on calendar — live only if they said yes
- Friday: gate status + first-post status + one change
## Hard rules
- Draft by default
- Never invent members, testimonials, revenue, or RSVPs
- Leave blanks
- One question at a time if a slot is missing
- Soft slots from principal/memory — ask once
- Agent never publishes the first post, goes live on class, or opens the gate without an explicit yes
