7-Day AIS Challenge - Day 4 Done! (a day or so late)

I had to skip a day or so because of exhaustion (outside of the challenge). Back at it now!

Today I completed the automation challenge! Again, for me, the thing that challenged me was to think of what to build. So this time, I used Claude.AI for assistance. From the results of the chat session, I pasted the conversation into Claude Code and took it from there.

A couple of things I will upgrade on the second pass:

I discussed a Canva integration step for the project. I'll look into that next time.
Actually pushing the project to Github - D'oh! I forgot that step. It lives directly on Trigger.dev, but in its basic form, so it's okay for now.
I really liked that I could brainstorm with Claude.AI and then copy/paste the resulting conversation to Claude Code to pick up the thread. I had to compress the session later on, but that was cool.

What I learned:

How to use the dashboard in Google Cloud to have results print directly to a dedicated Google Sheet.
That Claude Code also can apologize - It gave me instructions on where to copy/paste a Google secret, but then when it failed, it said "My bad - I told you to copy the entire code, including the parentheses, for Trigger.dev. That was a mistake." I appreciated that it saw the error.
My version of this test costs some cents for Claude API calls, so I had to put a nominal amount in the account.

Onward to the next project! I'm hoping that, with further iterations, this automation can become a content creator automation that I can offer for other content creators.
