Two (ok 3) questions for you: 1) It looks like when it was scraping Amazon and RR, you were logged in. Is that correct? So when you run this skill, you need to be logged in? If so, you might want to add that to the instructions if they're not there already 2) When you schedule the monthly scout, does your computer have to be on? I have a Corp Hell Job and tend to leave my laptop at home if I'm not actively working on anything 3) How would these scouts work if you already had a series bible created (which I do. For several series'. LOL) Would I just upload the bible, ask it to [what do I say?] and then run the skill?
1.) You do not have to be logged into Amazon or RR for the scout to work. It can see pages it needs either way.
2.) For Scheduled Tasks in the cloud, you do not need to leave your computer on. If they are using your browser to scrap or writing to local folders, they are running locally (on your computer) and it does need to be on and awake.
3.) How are you wanting to use it with the series bible? To check the market alignment or something else? Let me know. These are good questions, and I can add another video on this stuff if needed.
For #2: when you say, “tasks in the cloud”, what does that mean? What kind of tasks would be in the cloud? #3: I want to check for market alignment. You series blueprint skill does a pretty in-depth analysis, so I was wondering what it could do if the ideas were already formed and it wasn’t interviewing for the information needed.
It's a new feature in Cowork, just introduced in this summer. If the task isn't bound to local folders, it remains in the cloud and can be run from anywhere. For instance, if a task searches the web (not scrapes) and then writes up a report to Notion or a drive in the cloud, or a Claude project thats in the cloud, it can do it on the web, phone, etc. You can literally reach it anywhere.
I talked about this in the "Let's Take a Tour" segment. I've added more info in the Project 1 Followup lesson, and will have a video in there demoing that soon.

Ah. Ok. Gotcha.
I added more videos and notes, hope that helps!
Thank you so much! They were very helpful.
