Im curious can't your use case be done with Github self hosted runner ?

  Or, like, a cron job.

    >scripting and automation I cringe at my old boss’s handiwork in Claude and power automate sometimes and go “you know I could just do that in a script and a cron job and it would be completely bullet proof, right?” Then he just shoots back with, “yeah but now I don’t have to ask you.” This is my kludge, there are many others like it but this one is mine.

      Does the boss not understand that they could get Claude to write them a script and a crontab entry (so they don't have to ask you) -- and then run it forever (so they don't have to pay Anthropic, or risk temperature randomness)? Best of both worlds...

        Boss might not even know what Bash is, let alone a crontab.

          crontab yes, flavors of shell, no. But I actually did appreciate the one time he handed me a Cisco config that was 90% perfect and took me all of 5 minutes to fix. Sometimes the three of us make a hell of a team.

      You know that was a good answer.
