Agent
The Goal
Build an autonomous AI agent that helps me do social media research — so I can understand what's working, what's trending, and what to build next, without doing it all manually.

Process
Everything is documented as it happened — tools tried, prompts written, what worked and what didn't.

Spoke to humans. Real ones. That's where the ideas and direction for this came together.
Skillsets Formed
Top 3 Learnings
Skills for the agent must be separate — modular and purpose-built. Prompting them to perfection individually is just as important as the overall architecture.
I need to constantly optimise this with low downtime. That means actually using it — not building it and letting it sit.
Picked up a bunch of new tools in the process — all documented in the process doc above.
Mental Note
Personal reminder
This can be integrated with social media research results. Need to actually get good at SSHing without GPT.
