Built Newsletter Automation
What I built: A /newsletter Claude Code skill — give it a topic, it researches it, writes the content, generates a Canva infographic, formats an HTML email, and sends it via Gmail (OAuth).
One thing that clicked: Splitting the pipeline so Claude does the "judgment" steps (research, writing, picking the infographic angle) live in-session, and only the mechanical Gmail send goes through a script — kept the whole thing inside one skill instead of a separate brittle automation.🥰
Looking forward to completing Day 2. Thanks Nate for putting this together!
