Ilia Karelin used Claude computer use to read his own X feed and suggest four newsletter stories with editorial angles. This workflow is listed under content-research, newsletter, computer-use.
Karelin opened Dispatch in Claude and asked it to find posts worth covering in his Substack. Claude opened Chrome, browsed his already authenticated X feed, checked engagement figures and proposed a story angle for each selected post. It then asked whether he wanted to start drafting.
How it went
He reports receiving four candidate posts and their angles in about 90 seconds.
Worth knowing
Karelin keeps the editorial decision himself: he chooses which suggested post deserves a story and whether its proposed angle fits.
