Planning a trip often meant piecing together information from a dozen different places. I might save inspiration from Instagram Reels and carousels, bookmark useful links in my browser, receive booking confirmations as PDFs from different platforms, and have tickets spread across emails and travel apps. By the time the trip got closer, I had all the information I needed—but no easy way to see it together or turn it into a coherent plan. I recently started using an AI travel tool called Mindtrip to solve this. It’s free and brings my saved content, links, bookings, PDFs, and tickets into one place. Mindtrip uses AI to understand the context and organize everything into a single trip, including the tips and hacks in Instagram Reels. It then creates a day-by-day itinerary based on what I’ve saved, liked, and booked. I have one place to see, manage, and adjust my entire trip instead of constantly switching between different sources. It also provides reminders and checklists based on my plans, along with a map view of where I’m supposed to be going. Step-by-step: 1. I saved travel inspiration from Instagram Reels and carousels, bookmarked useful links, and collected booking confirmations, PDFs, and tickets from different platforms, emails, and travel apps. 2. I brought the saved content, links, bookings, PDFs, and tickets into Mindtrip. 3. Mindtrip used AI to understand the context and organize everything into a single trip, including tips and hacks from Instagram Reels. 4. I used the resulting day-by-day itinerary, based on what I had saved, liked, and booked. 5. I used Mindtrip’s reminders, checklists, and map view to manage and adjust the trip in one place.

I built a local memory system for Claude that is a bit different from others I have seen. The reason was familiar: repeated context loss and gaps, even within projects. I am not technical—I come from a healthcare background—so it was essentially vibe-coded, but I used a method I had not seen elsewhere. I started by interviewing Claude about what would be useful to it, rather than beginning with only what I wanted. The three biggest gaps were the rationale behind decisions, current versus historical states, and the difference between global and project-level detail. We also identified ways memory can go wrong, including stale facts being confidently asserted as truth and rejected ideas resurfacing. Claude’s built-in memory stores flat topics without entity links, captures what but not why, is not well temporally grounded, and is gated by Claude. I researched other memory builds, from homebrew systems to enterprise tools, and found that they generally fell into three groups: - Vector dumps, which lack rationale and supersession and can become stale - Plain Markdown with grep or embeddings, such as Basic Memory, which similarly lacks real temporal grounding and an entity graph - Heavyweight knowledge-graph stacks such as Neo4j, LangChain, and GraphRAG None of these did what I wanted. My store holds entities only, not transcripts. It stores decisions, observations, people, and projects connected by typed edges. Each entry has content, a scope—either portfolio-worthy or working detail for one project—a rationale, and information about where it came from. The system is also bitemporal, so it distinguishes what is current from what is not. Nothing is edited in place: a correction adds a new assertion instead of overwriting the old one. Underneath, it uses SQLite, with sqlite-vec for semantic search and FTS5 for keyword search. Nothing writes automatically. Claude has to propose a memory, and I have to approve it. This prevents the store from filling with noise, keeps it token-efficient, and acts as a governance lever. MCP links Claude to my server. It is local-only at present, although there is potential to add remote access in the future. The server provides instructions for making proposals, so the system is theoretically portable, and I also created a Claude skill to accompany it. I ran the build across multiple projects and created specialist projects for different roles: - A central development and oversight project served as the decision-maker and prompt-writer. - Cowork handled the building and tested each module inside a sandbox. It had no authority to change decisions, and I used a fresh project for each stage of the build. - I handled deployment separately by typing every command on the server and pasting the output back. - I repeated Claude’s Cowork-authored tests on the actual server. Real-world testing after deployment identified only minor issues, which were quick to fix. This separation was administratively heavy because I had to keep switching between projects as tasks started and finished, but it caught several errors in the rules and code. Despite my lack of technical knowledge, the project is now well documented and I have room to develop it further. I may eventually put it on GitHub. It has become a standard component of my workflows, my projects are tracked much better, and Claude and I are on the same page more often.

I built a portal to manage lectures and applications for teaching sociology students at my university. It displays educational content, monitors attendance, supports pedagogical evaluation, and provides training in methodological skills. Step-by-step: 1. I built a portal for managing lectures and applications for sociology students at my university. 2. I added educational content for students to access. 3. I included attendance monitoring. 4. I added tools for pedagogical evaluation. 5. I incorporated training in methodological skills.

I used Astra to redesign my personal wardrobe. I want to dress better, but my absolute worst nightmare is having a closet full of clothes that creates more clutter in my brain. I already have enough to think about, so I built an app that decides what I should wear based on the season and local weather using GPT-6 Astra. I gave it a few full-body photos, my height, weight, sizes, and niche details such as having broad shoulders and needing to tailor my waist. I also shared the colors I like, added a master prompt, and asked it to build a site. The results were incredible. I'm the model in every photo, and Astra's virtual try-on is genuinely impressive. If I can't find a piece online, I update the model and regenerate the pictures. Step-by-step: 1. I opened ChatGPT desktop with GPT-6 Astra and Codex/Sites, then turned on Computer Use and image generation. 2. I started a new chat and uploaded four to eight full-body photos, one clear face photo, and closet photos when available. 3. I pasted the prompt below, filled in my name, city, and sizes, and let it work for one to two hours. 4. I sent a couple of correction passes instead of rebuilding the whole system. I removed things I would never wear and added things I actually wear. PROMPT: GOAL Build a working website called [YOUR NAME]'s Wardrobe. It blends two things: 1) A closed uniform system of exactly 30 looks 2) A personalized shopping portal where I am the model in every photo, Aritzia/Uniqlo catalog quality (seamless studio backdrop, full-body try-on, product-card grid) SITE NAME [YOUR NAME]'s Wardrobe THE ONLY INVENTORY - 7 summer outfits - 7 fall outfits - 7 winter outfits - 7 spring outfits - 1 gym outfit - 1 lounge outfit = 30 looks. Nothing else. Each look is complete: top + bottom or one-piece + shoes + at most 2 extras. Reuse pieces across the 7 looks in a season. Cap unique garments at 35–50 including shoes and outerwear. Throw everything else out. WHO I AM - Name: - Lives: [city] - Height: - Weight: - Sizes (top / bottom / shoe): - Body notes: - Work dress code: - Weekend life: - Style in 5 words: - Colors that work / colors I refuse: - Budget for gap-filling buys: - Hard constraints: Attached photos are the identity lock. Reproduce my real face AND real body in every try-on. Do not slim, lengthen, or beautify me. LIVE WEATHER (required, not a mock) On every page load, fetch live weather for [CITY] from Open-Meteo with no API key. Use the correct lat/long and timezone. Show on the homepage: - “Today in [CITY]” - apparent temperature, condition, rain yes/no - ONE recommended look from the 30 - why that look won - 1 weather swap (if rain starts / if it drops 5°C) Selection logic: - apparent temp ≥ 20°C and dry → Summer pool - 15–19°C dry → Spring pool Mar–May, Fall pool Sep–Nov, otherwise the closer season - 8–14°C → Fall pool, prefer the look that already includes a mid-layer - ≤ 7°C → Winter pool - rain now or daily precipitation ≥ 1mm → jacket + closed shoes, no white sneakers or silk - wind ≥ 25 km/h → prefer a layer - gym / lounge days use those uniforms, add a layer only if ≤ 10°C Never invent an outfit outside the 30. SITE STRUCTURE - Home: today + try-on + wear-this checklist - Summer / Fall / Winter / Spring: 7 look cards each, me wearing the full look - Gym / Lounge - Pieces: every unique garment on me, marked OWNED or BUY - Purge: sell / donate / trash for anything not in the system - Rotation: 4-week calendar per season. Weather can override, but it still has to be one of the 7 (or gym/lounge) VISUAL BAR Premium catalog photography. Gray/white seamless, even light, full body. Do not clone another brand’s logo. This is [YOUR NAME]'s Wardrobe. HOW TO BUILD Step-by-step: 1. Build the 30 looks from my photos, stats, climate, and closet photos. Use owned pieces first. 2. Generate consistent try-ons of me for every look and every piece. 3. Build a real clickable site. Hook live weather. Do not fake it. 4. If an image breaks my face or body, regenerate it before shipping. 5. No payments. Personal wardrobe OS only. OUTPUT Live site, the 30 looks, piece list (owned vs buy), ranked shopping list, purge list, weather mapping, and what you inferred vs what came from my photos. Start now. Make the call if a detail is missing. Only ask if the photos are unusable.

“Honey, do you remember where Ryan’s practice is? Do you remember our Wi-Fi password? Do you know my TSA PRE number? Remember who that painter was that we used last year?” If you have a family with children, you may hear questions like these all the time. In a large family, there always seem to be questions about the house, the kids, or technology that could be answered more easily. The information is usually stored in different places: password files, a Rolodex of business cards, or sheets of paper in junk drawers. I set out to build an app where anyone in my family could use voice to save something for the future or retrieve something they had already stored. I integrated AI to understand the meaning of each voice note. It might create a calendar event, store a password in a vault, or simply remember a phone number. Then anyone else in the family could access the information. The app uses multi-factor authentication for anything particularly secret. It is not intended to be a dedicated password protector; I would build in much more security if that were the goal. Instead, it is an everyday-life app for remembering the little things: How long is the warranty on this appliance? Which exact light bulbs did we use here last time? What was our daughter’s email address that we needed to set up on her phone? Being able to use voice to enter information or retrieve it was the key for me. I think that will save people time. As I started adding entries and validating the idea, my wife came up with the name. After a few weeks, I knew she was completely right, because I now use it about 10 times a day—and I hear that exact phrase every time. Step-by-step: 1. I identified recurring family questions about locations, passwords, identification numbers, contacts, warranties, and household items. 2. I built an app that lets family members use voice to save or retrieve information. 3. I integrated AI to interpret the meaning of each voice note and determine whether to create a calendar event, store a password in a vault, or remember a phone number. 4. I made the stored information accessible to other family members. 5. I added multi-factor authentication for information that is particularly secret, while keeping the app focused on everyday memory rather than dedicated password protection. 6. I added entries and validated the idea through regular use, eventually using the app about 10 times a day.

I have a lot of calls, and follow-ups were the first thing to get lost once my day filled up. Granola notes helped, but I still had to remember to go back and read them. I connected Granola, Claude, and Notion, then set up a scheduled task in Claude. Every day at 6 p.m., it reviews that day’s Granola meeting notes, finds any to-do items or commitments I made, and creates them as tasks in my Notion to-do list. Step-by-step: 1. I connected Granola and Notion to Claude through Settings > Connectors. 2. I created a scheduled task with a prompt like: "Read today's Granola meeting notes. For each action item assigned to me, create a task in my Notion to-do database with the meeting name and date." 3. I set the task to run daily at the end of the day.

I love reading, but my Goodreads TBR list keeps growing faster than I can get through it. After years of adding books, I had forgotten what was actually there and was wasting time scrolling whenever I needed to choose my next read. I asked Claude to analyze my reading history, 4-star and 5-star ratings, author patterns, and recurring genres to create a profile of my book personality. I then used that profile to select and rank the next 50 books from my TBR list. Because I enjoy matching books to the season, I also asked Claude to organize the recommendations by seasonal feel. Now I have a reference list that makes it easier to decide what to read next. Step-by-step: 1. I exported my library data from Goodreads. 2. I uploaded two files to Claude: my Read list and my To-Be-Read list. 3. I used the prompt below to generate a personalized reading roadmap based on my book personality. 4. I used the resulting list as a reference so I would not spend as much time deciding what to read next. PROMPT I have attached two CSV files: 1. My Read list. 2. My To-Be-Read list. Create my book personality profile by analyzing my reading history, my 4-star and 5-star ratings, author patterns, and recurring genres. Using that data, filter and rank my To-Be-Read list to build a personalized roadmap of the next 50 books I should read from that list. Evenly organize recommendations into 4 seasonal blocks based on these descriptions: - Autumn: Atmospheric, moody, or suspenseful books with a cozy but engaging pace. - Winter: Immersive, complex, or cozy books (slower burns or dense world-building). - Spring: Fresh, character-driven, or thought-provoking fiction with a steady pace. - Summer: High-energy, immersive, or breezy books (fast-paced page-turners). Next, generate an interactive digital bookshelf widget to display the recommended books. The design should feature: - A warm, premium editorial color palette. - Minimalist style cards for each book displaying Title, Author, and color-coded genre badge. - Interactive navigation tabs at the top to toggle between the four seasons. - A functional "Mark as Read" click action on each card that visually updates a progress ring or tracker.

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.

I love playing poker, both online and live. One month, I performed poorly. Although it felt like the cards were running badly, I wondered whether I had developed a problem in my game and was blaming my losses on bad luck. I asked around, including asking AI, whether a tool existed that could measure luck from poker hand histories. The unwelcome answer was that it did not. I'm not a coder, but after doing some research into vibe coding, I started building a luck-detection app in a Claude chat. Claude built the UI directly in the chat window and advised me on the formulas I was using to calculate luck for the cards dealt, my performance on the flop, and my performance when I went all in. All three metrics have strong averages, and luck is what varies them. I used a bell curve to model hand outcomes and a Monte Carlo simulator, which Claude suggested and executed, to evaluate all possible outcomes. The result astonished me because it was so useful. I immediately fixed two major leaks in my game and felt better knowing that bad luck really was the main problem affecting my results. I liked the tool so much that I decided to turn it into a full web app with Claude Code, and now an iPhone app that I may let other people use for free. I also had a lot of fun building it—except for learning how to use Xcode. That was a pain, even with step-by-step guidance from Claude. Step-by-step: 1. I reviewed a month of poor poker results and questioned whether bad luck or problems in my game were causing the losses. 2. I researched whether a tool existed that could measure luck from poker hand histories and learned that I would need to build one myself. 3. I used vibe coding to start building a luck-detection app in a Claude chat. 4. I had Claude create the UI and advise on formulas for evaluating cards dealt, flop performance, and all-in performance. 5. I used a bell curve to model hand outcomes and a Monte Carlo simulator to evaluate possible outcomes. 6. I used the results to identify and fix two major leaks in my game and confirm that bad luck was also affecting my results. 7. I expanded the project into a full web app with Claude Code and then began building an iPhone app, working through the added challenge of learning Xcode.

I use ChatGPT to turn a physical trading card collection into a structured digital inventory. I start by photographing the collection and uploading the images to Google Drive. I divide the cards into logical groups and store them in separate subfolders, creating a clear structure before identification begins. ChatGPT then works through the folders in manageable batches, using OCR and visual recognition to extract information from the cards. This avoids manually uploading and describing every card one by one. I use consistent processing rules to reduce mistakes: I limit the number of cards per batch, make sure every source image is accounted for, and use one central card per photo when identification could otherwise be ambiguous. For each card, ChatGPT helps identify and organize the information I want to keep: card name, set code, set or series, edition, rarity, language, quantity, approximate year or period, condition notes, confidence level, and the source image. The useful part is not just OCR or card recognition. It is the combination of a structured Google Drive archive, visual identification, consistency checks, and systematic data extraction across a large physical collection. When identification is uncertain, I record that uncertainty rather than silently guessing. Damaged or unusual cards can also receive specific notes, such as foil scratches, edge wear, folds, or other condition issues. Once all folders have been processed, I consolidate the separate batches into one central inventory so I can check duplicates, quantities, and inconsistencies more easily. I first used this workflow for a Yu-Gi-Oh! collection and plan to reuse the same process for a Harry Potter trading card collection. The result is a searchable, structured overview of a physical collection that can later be used for valuation, selling, insurance, cataloguing, or simply knowing what is actually in the boxes. Step-by-step: 1. I photograph the physical trading card collection. 2. I upload the images to Google Drive and divide them into logical groups stored in separate subfolders. 3. I process the folders with ChatGPT in manageable batches using OCR and visual recognition. 4. I limit the number of cards per batch, account for every source image, and use one central card per photo when needed to reduce ambiguity. 5. I extract each card’s name, set code, set or series, edition, rarity, language, quantity, approximate year or period, condition notes, confidence level, and source image. 6. I record uncertainty instead of silently guessing and add specific notes for damaged or unusual cards, such as foil scratches, edge wear, and folds. 7. I consolidate the processed batches into one central inventory to check duplicates, quantities, and inconsistencies. 8. I reuse the process for additional collections, including my planned Harry Potter trading card collection.

AI is useful for researching investments, but most workflows stop at “What should I buy?” The harder part comes afterward: Does the idea make sense given what I already own? What would make me add to the position? When should I take profits? What evidence would prove the original thesis wrong? And how do I track all of that without constantly watching the market? I use AI to turn a one-time investment research session into an ongoing decision and monitoring system. I start by asking AI to research the market for potential opportunities. In my case, I look specifically for strong mean-reversion trades, but the same workflow could start with value opportunities, macro themes, sector rotations, individual stocks, crypto, or almost any other investment strategy. Then I give AI my actual portfolio so it can evaluate those ideas in context. After I decide which recommendations I agree with and manually make the trades, I have AI convert each investment thesis into explicit rules for what should happen next. Finally, I turn those rules into automated monitors that periodically check market conditions and alert me only when something happens that warrants another decision. Step-by-step: 1. I define what I’m looking for by asking AI to research potential investment opportunities using criteria I care about, such as mean reversion, valuation, momentum, macro conditions, risk/reward, or another strategy. 2. I have AI investigate current market conditions and rank the opportunities, narrowing a large universe down to a manageable set of ideas worth examining further. 3. I pressure-test each thesis by asking why the opportunity exists, what could drive the expected outcome, what the major risks are, and—most importantly—what evidence would invalidate the thesis. 4. I provide my current holdings so AI can identify overlapping exposures, concentration risks, hedges, or positions that conflict with the new ideas. 5. I ask AI which existing positions the research suggests reviewing and where new exposure might make sense. The goal is a small number of actionable decisions rather than a giant list of interesting trades. 6. I review the analysis and independently decide whether to buy, sell, hold, or do nothing. I keep actual trade execution under human control. 7. Before the market moves, I define the next decision for every position by asking AI to identify conditions that would warrant reviewing whether to: - Add - Take profits - Reduce exposure - Exit - Reconsider the original thesis 8. I turn those conditions into automated monitors. I have ChatGPT periodically check the relevant prices, yields, economic indicators, news, or other variables. Instead of sending routine updates, I tell it to alert me only when a predefined trigger occurs. 9. When a trigger fires, I return to the original thesis with the new information and decide what—if anything—should change. Instead of using AI for isolated investment recommendations, I now have a repeatable loop for managing an investment thesis over time: Find an opportunity → Understand it → Compare it to what I own → Make a decision → Define what would change my mind → Let AI watch for it The most useful part may actually come after the investment decision. By deciding in advance what evidence would make me add, take profits, or reconsider the thesis, I don’t have to start my analysis from scratch every time the market moves. AI becomes a persistent research and monitoring layer while I remain responsible for every investment decision and trade.

I built Show Hole to solve my family’s classic streaming problem: we spend too much time deciding what to watch, and the answer changes depending on who is actually on the couch. We each have different tastes, but the more interesting problem is that our tastes overlap differently in different combinations. I watch one kind of thing with my spouse, my spouse watches something different with our kid, and my kid and I have our own lane too. Most recommendation tools flatten that into one account profile, one watch history, or broad genre buckets, so they miss the real context of a household. Show Hole treats people and viewing contexts as first-class citizens. It recommends titles “in the vein of” something we liked, filters recommendations to the streaming services we actually subscribe to, avoids titles that the people present have already seen or vetoed, and explains why a recommendation fits tonight. Instead of relying mainly on genres such as comedy, drama, or sci-fi, Show Hole looks at more human taste signals: pacing, world building, humor, emotional weight, complexity, tone, and similar dimensions. It also learns from what we actually do after a recommendation: what we watch, skip, save for later, love, and drop. The result is a personal household recommender that understands “who is watching tonight?” as part of the question, instead of pretending one streaming profile can represent everyone. I designed the app using Claude design, then used those designs with Claude Code to build it. Step-by-step: 1. I identified the household viewing problem and accounted for the different combinations of people who might be watching together. 2. I designed Show Hole around people and viewing contexts instead of treating the household as one account profile, watch history, or set of broad genre preferences. 3. I had it recommend titles “in the vein of” something we liked, filter them to the streaming services we subscribe to, exclude titles already seen or vetoed by the people present, and explain why each recommendation fits that night. 4. I used taste signals such as pacing, world building, humor, emotional weight, complexity, tone, and similar dimensions instead of relying mainly on genres. 5. I made the recommender learn from what we watch, skip, save for later, love, and drop after receiving a recommendation. 6. I designed the app using Claude design and used those designs with Claude Code to build it.

I built a daily AI story-scouting workflow that finds potentially viral stories for Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and TikTok without recycling topics we’ve already covered. First, the workflow reviewed Rowan’s public short-form archive once to create a coverage map of past topics and editorial taste. It uses that map as a filter, helping distinguish a genuinely new angle from another version of the same AI launch, robot demo, or research story. Every morning, it scans priority sources, including AI and technology coverage from major newspapers and tech blogs, The Rundown newsletters, company announcements, research papers, and public updates from major AI and robotics companies. The workflow is not limited to same-day news. It also looks back over the past one to six weeks for stories that have not been extensively covered in the media. Each potential story is checked for four things: a clear visual hook, a technical idea that can be explained in 45–90 seconds, broad audience interest, and meaningful novelty compared with Rowan’s past coverage and the previous week’s recommendations. It keeps every story that clears the bar rather than forcing a fixed number. The final brief is ranked by strength and sent as one compact Slack DM at 10 AM each day. Step-by-step: 1. The workflow reviews Rowan’s public short-form archive once and builds a map of past topics and editorial taste. 2. Each morning, it scans priority sources, including major newspapers, tech blogs, The Rundown newsletters, company announcements, research papers, and public updates from major AI and robotics companies. 3. It searches both same-day news and stories from the previous one to six weeks that have not been extensively covered in the media. 4. It filters out topics that substantially repeat Rowan’s past coverage or the previous week’s recommendations, while identifying genuinely new angles. 5. It evaluates each potential story for a clear visual hook, a technical idea explainable in 45–90 seconds, broad audience interest, and meaningful novelty. 6. It keeps every story that meets those criteria instead of forcing a fixed number of recommendations. 7. It ranks the final brief by strength and sends it as one compact Slack DM at 10 AM each day.

Instead of relying on a single AI chat, I structure the work as an executive team of specialist perspectives. I define the problem, assign roles such as CTO, product leader, economist, marketer, and skeptic, and have each expert analyze it independently. Then I run several rounds of critique so they can challenge one another’s assumptions before synthesizing their areas of agreement and disagreement. The process ends with a recommendation that includes the rationale and any remaining uncertainties. Step-by-step: 1. Define the problem clearly. 2. Assign specialist roles, such as CTO, product leader, economist, marketer, and skeptic. 3. Have each expert analyze the problem independently. 4. Run several rounds of critique in which the experts challenge one another’s assumptions. 5. Synthesize the areas of agreement and disagreement. 6. Produce a final recommendation with its rationale and remaining uncertainties.

A while ago, my dad told me he wanted to use AI to analyze World Cup matches. He had never coded before, and his AI experience was mostly limited to occasionally asking Gemini a question. I installed Claude Code for him and gave him a few prompting tips. He ended up building a full football analytics site himself and deploying it on Vercel so he could show it to his friends. Getting started with AI is easier than people assume. Sometimes, you just need a project you genuinely want to make. Now that the Premier League season has kicked off, he’s already reworking the site for it. Step-by-step: 1. I helped my dad choose a football analytics project he genuinely wanted to build for analyzing World Cup matches. 2. I installed Claude Code for him, since he had never coded before. 3. I gave him a few prompting tips and let him use AI to help build the site. 4. He built a full football analytics site himself. 5. He deployed the site on Vercel so he could show it to his friends. 6. After the Premier League season kicked off, he began reworking the site for the new competition.

My doctor asked me to track my blood pressure for a month because it was on the high side before prescribing any medication. I initially recorded each reading manually in an Excel sheet, but after a few days, I wanted a simpler way to enter and manage the data. I uploaded the sheet to Claude Code and asked it to build a blood pressure tracking app. After the app was built, I hosted it on Netlify, used Supabase as the backend to save data for both my wife and me, and added it to my iPhone Home Screen. Step-by-step: 1. I started tracking my blood pressure in an Excel sheet as my doctor requested. 2. After several days of entering the readings manually, I uploaded the sheet to Claude Code. 3. I asked Claude Code to build an app for tracking blood pressure. 4. I hosted the app on Netlify. 5. I used Supabase as the backend to save blood pressure data for both my wife and me. 6. I saved the app to my iPhone Home Screen for easier access.

I’m building a mobile game called ExoLab Blast with Astra. I developed it through conversation, starting with the basic concept and continuing through testing the game mechanics. Astra also created and repeatedly updated the game’s graphics and UI based on my feedback. Step-by-step: 1. I discussed the basic concept for ExoLab Blast with Astra. 2. I used Astra to build out the mobile game. 3. I tested the game mechanics. 4. I gave feedback on the graphics and UI. 5. Astra created and updated the graphics and UI multiple times based on that feedback.

I use a Claude skill to reduce the manual work involved in my job search. It searches for the latest roles, assists with my applications, and tracks my application journey. I can fully automate the process with Claude scheduling. I download the SKILL file from my GitHub repository (https://github.com/petehawtree/job-search-tracker-skill) and launch it in Claude Desktop. Alternatively, I can download the entire repository and recreate it in my Claude skills directory. I schedule it to run each day or trigger it manually. Each run summarizes the latest activity and tracks it against previous runs. The workflow includes a dashboard for monitoring roles and applications, along with a daily digest that guides me through the new roles it finds. Step-by-step: 1. I download the SKILL file from https://github.com/petehawtree/job-search-tracker-skill. 2. I launch it in Claude Desktop, or download the entire repository and recreate it in my Claude skills directory. 3. I put the workflow on a schedule or trigger it manually each day. 4. I review the daily summary, which is tracked against previous runs. 5. I use the dashboard to monitor roles and applications. 6. I review the daily digest for guidance on the new roles the workflow finds.
