Build a Local Rye and Spelt Flour Supply Chain

I built an AI-assisted vertical grain supply-chain resilience workflow after discovering that the rye flour we normally use for homemade bread had been discontinued. I started by asking ChatGPT to locate alternative retail and bulk suppliers for rye and spelt flour. We compared package sizes and prices, contacted local mills and bulk-food suppliers directly, and expanded the search from finished flour to locally available whole grain. The workflow then moved offline. ChatGPT helped us identify the resources we already had: agricultural land, grain bins, a cultivator, a seeder, an old but functional industrial grain crusher, and even a combine. We also realized that a friend owns a seed-cleaning plant and that our farming neighbors can connect us with local rye and spelt growers. Our next steps are to test whether a household coffee grinder can produce sufficiently fine flour from grain, source fresh food-grade rye and spelt locally, and investigate growing a small crop ourselves. The biggest lesson was that AI was most useful not because it gave us one answer, but because the conversation kept changing the question. We began with “Where can I buy rye flour?” and ended with “Why are we buying rye flour when we already have most of the infrastructure required to produce it ourselves?” Step-by-step: 1. I asked ChatGPT to find alternative retail and bulk suppliers for rye and spelt flour after our usual rye flour was discontinued. 2. We compared package sizes and prices, contacted local mills and bulk-food suppliers directly, and expanded the search from finished flour to locally available whole grain. 3. We reviewed the resources already available to us, including agricultural land, grain bins, a cultivator, a seeder, an old but functional industrial grain crusher, and a combine. 4. We identified additional local resources: a friend’s seed-cleaning plant and farming neighbors who can connect us with local rye and spelt growers. 5. We plan to test whether a household coffee grinder can produce sufficiently fine flour from grain, source fresh food-grade rye and spelt locally, and investigate growing a small crop ourselves. 6. We reframed the question from where to buy rye flour to whether we could produce it ourselves using the infrastructure already available to us.

Build a Vegetable Garden Planner with Claude

I’m a nurse with no tech experience, but I’m curious and have many creative ideas. I used Claude to build a website that helps people plan which vegetables to grow based on their location, available space, and the time they have. Veggiegrowguide.com Step-by-step: 1. I identified an idea for helping people choose vegetables to grow based on their location, available space, and available time. 2. I used Claude to help me build a website for the idea. 3. I created Veggiegrowguide.com as a resource for people planning their vegetable gardens.

Build an Autonomous AI SDR Engine in n8n with CRM Memory

I built an autonomous, end-to-end AI Sales Development Representative (SDR) engine entirely in n8n. On a scheduled trigger, the agent calculates targeting parameters, reads long-term CRM memory to avoid duplicate outreach, searches for and qualifies prospective leads, scrapes company websites for buying signals, drafts tailored outreach emails, writes structured relational data to PostgreSQL, and reports execution summaries through Telegram—with zero manual intervention. The system is currently deployed in production for a B2B agricultural export business, generating qualified international wholesale leads on a recurring schedule. Most AI automations rely on simple linear scripts or break down when handling complex agentic tool workflows. This system addresses three common failure points: - High API costs: Re-sending large system prompts and tool schemas on every agent iteration drains tokens. - Context blindness: Agents without memory of previous contacts can send duplicate outreach. - Database crashes: Agents may hallucinate ENUM values or fail to insert nested one-to-many arrays into relational tables. The workflow uses a Cloudflare-proxied Claude Sonnet 4.6 model with prompt caching, persistent CRM memory reads, and a fault-tolerant parallel database-write architecture. The stack includes n8n as the orchestrator; Claude Sonnet 4.6 through a Cloudflare Worker proxy as the LLM core with ephemeral prompt caching; PostgreSQL for CRM contacts, intelligence, and outreach tables with custom ENUMs; SerpAPI for prospect discovery; Firecrawl for website content extraction; and Telegram for execution reporting. The workflow exposes these tools to the n8n agent: - `read_relationship_memory`: Read-only SQL access to historical contact and outreach data, preventing duplicate prospecting. - `Lead_Finder`: Searches for and identifies target prospects by country and sector. - `Scrape_Website_Content`: Extracts website content, buyer-intent signals, and objections from discovered domains. - `write_relationship_memory`: Writes leads, intelligence facts, and drafted emails to Postgres in one resilient call. Step-by-step: 1. A Schedule Trigger feeds a JavaScript “Country Calculator” node that resolves the day’s targeting parameters—region and industry focus—using ISO week rotation. This cycles outreach across markets automatically. 2. The AI Agent connects to an OpenAI Chat Model node whose Base URL points to a custom Cloudflare Worker. The worker translates OpenAI-formatted requests into Anthropic’s Messages API, enabling Claude Sonnet 4.6 while injecting ephemeral cache-control headers into the system prompt and tool definitions to reduce repeat-token costs. 3. Before researching, the agent calls `read_relationship_memory` to check relationship status and outreach history, preventing duplicate contact attempts. 4. `Lead_Finder` searches target sectors in the day’s region and returns seven filtered candidates. `Scrape_Website_Content` then visits each domain, extracts clean page text, and surfaces offerings, value propositions, and likely objections. 5. The workflow writes nested one-to-many data—multiple facts and one outreach log per contact—without item duplication or ENUM crashes. The tool schema requires a strict JSON array with exact ENUM string choices spelled out in the description. 6. A sub-workflow triggered by “When Executed by Another Workflow” splits the array, then flattens nested `contact.*` fields to root keys using JavaScript. 7. An upsert query, `ON CONFLICT (email) DO UPDATE`, writes the contact, increments `email_count` for repeats, and returns `contact_id`. 8. A “Re-attach Context” node merges `contact_id` back with the original intelligence array and outreach payload because n8n strips extra data through single-row database nodes. 9. Two parallel branches run: one inserts the outreach log with `ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING`, while the other splits and inserts each intelligence fact with defensive ENUM sanitization. This eliminates crashes and duplicate rows during retries. 10. The agent’s final output triggers a Telegram message summarizing the discovered leads, extracted facts, and drafted emails, sent directly to the operator’s phone. The result is a production-grade, self-healing AI outbound pipeline running with zero manual intervention. It maintains CRM data integrity, avoids duplicate outreach, and uses prompt caching to keep LLM costs low at scale.

Automate Sales Follow-Up for Chocolate Factory Buyer Conversations

A chocolate factory client had a simple but expensive sales problem: good conversations with buyers sometimes went quiet because nobody followed up at the right time. Some opportunities were waiting on sample feedback, pricing, private-label details, minimum order quantities (MOQs), packaging, or distributor discussions. The opportunities were still active, but they were easy to lose track of. I built a follow-up workflow for the client in Awish. Step-by-step: 1. I opened the Awish chat and wrote: “Track our open sales opportunities from Microsoft Teams and Google Sheets. Every business day, review the latest customer conversation, sales stage, planned follow-up date, customer interest, and how long we’ve been out of touch. Find opportunities that need follow-up around samples, quotations, private label, MOQ, packaging, or distribution. Explain why each customer should be contacted, recommend the next action, and prepare a personalized Teams follow-up message based on the real conversation history. Never send anything without the salesperson’s approval. When the customer replies, close the old follow-up action and update the Sales Master record.” 2. Awish understood the request, planned the workflow, and selected Microsoft Teams and Google Sheets for the process. 3. I connected the client’s accounts, reviewed the plan, and approved the automation. 4. When a new customer conversation takes place in Teams, Awish updates the related sales record. 5. Every business day, it reviews open opportunities and finds deals that are overdue, at risk, or ready for the next follow-up. 6. For each opportunity, it explains why follow-up is needed and what the salesperson should do next. 7. Awish prepares a personalized Teams message using the actual conversation history, but waits for the salesperson’s approval before sending anything. 8. When the customer responds, the previous follow-up is closed and the opportunity status in Google Sheets is updated automatically. Now the sales team gets a prioritized daily list of who needs attention, why they need attention, and what the next message should be—without manually reviewing every old conversation. I want to keep building more workflows like this for real businesses. If you have a complex, repetitive process in your company that you think should be automated but you’re not sure how to build it, send it to me. I’d be happy to see if I can turn it into a working automation with Awish.
