Day 4: Trigger.dev Lead Generator

Hello everyone,

This build took me a little while, mostly because I really wanted to understand the process of creating a live automation from VS Claude to Trigger.dev. For this post, I created a lead generator for potential clients within the Saas space. The output gets sent to my email with the same theme/format as my made up brand. It could use more touchup, but I focused on getting the proof of concept.

One thing that broke was that trigger.dev was not picking up the task even when it was ran in development/local mode. Claude walked me through troubleshooting with the terminal and fixing things as we went, which was valuable practice. Ultimately, the Personal Access Token was being incorrectly referenced between Github and trigger.dev. Once I fixed that, everything ran as expected.

There's A LOT more I could have done with this build, but to catch up I kept it simple. On to Day 5!
