Quick backstory, pre-AIS (i.e. last week) I was cave manning my way through firecrawl and n8n oblivious to how Claude-code worked, I had patched together self-hosted firecrawl and n8n with 8 functioning nodes over hours and hours of screen shots and asking Claude chat. Come day 2 and this task let me tell you, AMAZING. I scraped a real-estate business, not much data so did the deeper dive and got it to build out a business profile. Then connected it up to n8n and had it map out a researcher workflow. The project included an Orchestrator / Router Content Hub design with researcher, architect, wordsmith, chief editor, planner which I had assumed was too ambitious, BUT it created a series of additional workflows and sub workflows. What I learned; my idea was too ambitious for me to do on my own but maybe not so now.

I've challenged myself to create something new with Fable 5 every day until July 7th. Last year, I had the opportunity to be a mentor for a group of high school students and train them on a creative thinking process and building a pitch. The week before the students got to the camp, I went through the creative training process myself and me and a partner came up with a way to help our community with communication. Here's the thing. In our particular community, we have so many things going on. So many events, organizations, clubs, sporting events, guest speakers, etc. However, all of this information is scattered all over. We get emails, find announcements on kiosks and TVs, and hear about them in person from gatherings. Most people don't even check their email. The TVs rotate with so many announcements that you can't write down the ones you want. And ultimately, all of these sources are bloated with things that don't apply to everyone. What if there was a way to only get the announcements you want in the way that you wanted? That's what our custom communication software intends to solve. People will be able to sign up with a community, link preferred communication methods, and subscribe to only the services that matter to them. Core features: - See all clubs, organizations, subscriptions, etc. - It's as simple as click to subscribe, and click to unsubscribe - Whenever your subscribed organizations post an announcement, it will come directly to you via your preferred communication method (I would prefer a text) and be available on the dashboard - People in the community can create their own organizations for people to subscribe to - You will not see any notifications from any service you haven't subscribed to

For Day 6, I scheduled my lead finder workflow to run automatically on a recurring schedule. The task looks for local businesses that may benefit from automation or website improvements and adds the results to a Google Sheet so I have a fresh list of leads to review. I used a scheduled task instead of a loop because this is something I want to run on a recurring basis, not just something I need Claude to monitor temporarily in one active session. A loop makes more sense for short-term monitoring, but a scheduled task is better for a weekly lead generation routine. One thing that surprised me was how much this starts to feel like having a lightweight agent working in the background. Instead of me opening the project, running the script, checking the output, and updating the sheet manually, the task can handle the routine on its own. The biggest takeaway for me was understanding the difference between loops and scheduled tasks. Loops are great for active project monitoring, but scheduled tasks are where the real recurring business automation starts to click. #AISChallenge

Built /linkedin-hook skill So finally completed day 3 of the 7 Day AIS challenge where I built a LinkedIn hook generator skill. I post content on LinkedIn weekly and every time I create content I found myself repeating the instructions to generate hooks using the framework I follow. I thought it would be a great use case to put it inside a skill and just call the skill every time I need to generate a hook.
