How to do this in 15 minutes
- Write down one chore you repeat every week, and the two apps it touches.
- In an automation tool, start from a template for that pair of apps.
- Test it with one fake entry. Check that the result landed in the right place.
- Turn it on. Leave the clever extras for later.
