Hoping this doesn't get buried

#

Here's my prompt if you want to try it yourself:

This is a cronjob, no need to create one. You should post in channel:C0AC... asking for my daily task list. Once received, you should create a page in the Notion database: 2fa1c6... with the title "Dailies" and the body being a numbered list of the tasks sorted by perceived priority. The API key for the Notion skill is already provided.
#

cannot believe this project has nearly 200k stars
can't even do the most basic of tasks

I've been trying to make this work for over a week

I agree n get your feeling - it’s been a hit n miss for me for 2 days now

I feel like this is separate from the cron job. I don't know if the history in your response from Slack would include the initial system message from crontab, but I think it's better if you approach this in two steps.

#

The first one being the cron job to write the message to slack, which it already does as instructed. Then an instruction to add the data to the Notion database.

#

Maybe you could make this a skill.

So you're saying to split it into 2 cronjobs?

#

and create a skill?

Seems like that's overkill for something so simple

#

honestly this project needs a lot of work
the hype around it is insane to me

It won't even save my config right now no matter which setting I change. I've checked for updates, I've reinstalled the entire VM I'm running it on

#

and everyone is convinced this is going to replace millions of jobs
which will surely have a real impact on the job market
