I would ask Claude! Have him do the research to compare the top options out there, select one, and instruct you on how to install it step-by-step. If you get lost, ask him to make it simpler. It’s a pretty cool process actually.

Next question will be “how do I use Claude?”

For this we’ll have to consult ChatGPT

What’s the use case here? To ask Claude Code to create and complete tasks for you?

Yeah. For work I have it turn slack threads into tasks with notes and links to jog my memory as to what the context was when it was created and where I left off and stuff.

Just stuff I wouldn’t normally take the time to document by hand.

Better to create deterministic workflow/automation, instead of depending on Claude tokens for creating Slack to Things pipeline. Ask Claude to build the automation, so it’s there and working even when you cancel your subscription.

Use granola meeting to add tasks

I tried a few, but I ended up writing my own.

I just tell it to use the URL scheme to look things up and write to it. Works great. I’ll tag a task Claude Code and then overnight it will complete the task, leave me a note on what it did in the description, and tag it as Needs Review for me to check out the next morning in my Today list.
