Reported experience

  1. What they did

    Sid wrote a Claude Code skill, a markdown file, with a Kit v4 API key kept in .env. On /newsletter it reads the site's content index for posts from the last 7 days and drafts a short email using his voice rules. He reviews and approves the draft. It then creates the Kit broadcast through the API and schedules it for the time he gives.

  2. How it went

    The whole run takes about two minutes, down from 30+ minutes by hand. He went from about two newsletters a month, sometimes none, to one every week.

  3. Worth knowing

    Kit's API can't create forms, sequences or automations, only broadcasts, subscribers and tags. Auto-generating opt-ins and sequences per post isn't possible yet.

Example prompts

Try with Claude Code
Set up a reusable /newsletter command for me. When I run it, it should find the posts I published this week in [folder or site URL], draft a newsletter in my voice using [2-3 past newsletters as style examples], and show me the draft for edits. Do not create or schedule anything in [email tool, e.g. Kit] until I approve; before that step, pause and show me exactly what will be sent and when.
