Automation with oversight

Automation should come after a workflow works manually. Learn how schedules, triggers, approvals, delivery channels, and failure visibility fit together.

Prove the workflow manually

Run the task once with the intended model, tools, and output format. Save the successful method before adding a schedule.

Add limits before frequency

Choose the minimum required tools, a sensible cadence, cost limits, and an explicit destination for the result.

Create a scheduled task

Keep failures observable

Confirm where errors, approvals, and completions appear. Silent failure is not automation; it is hidden manual work.

Review background status

Finish with an honest check

Complete the lesson only when you performed or deliberately inspected each observation—not simply because you read the page.
