"Automating Tasks With Prompt-Driven Workflows"

🗕️ New post every Monday · Brought to you by Marc Rexian

🤖 Why Task Automation Matters

With no-code platforms like Lovable and Replit, you can now build bots that:

  • Summarize documents
  • Generate reports
  • Write replies
  • Organize information
  • Trigger API calls

No Python. No cron jobs. Just prompts + flow.

🔧 What Is a Prompt-Driven Workflow?

  1. A user action or input starts the process
  2. A prompt block handles the logic
  3. The AI response is used to update the UI, send data, or trigger another action

Think of it as Zapier powered by LLMs.

✨ TaskBot Use Cases You Can Build Today

TaskBot TypePrompt Pattern Example
✉️ Email Writer "Write a reply to this message using a polite tone. Include these key points: [x]."
📟 Report Summarizer "Summarize this PDF in 5 bullet points. Make it friendly and non-technical."
📸 Caption Generator "Generate 3 catchy Instagram captions for a fitness brand launching a new app."
🧠 Note Organizer "Classify the following meeting notes into To-Dos, Decisions, and Follow-Ups."
🗓️ Event Reminder "Create a human-friendly reminder for this calendar event with time and location."

🛠️ Building a Workflow in Lovable

Example: Caption Generator Bot

  1. User Input Block – Upload product details
  2. Prompt Block
    Act as a brand copywriter. Generate 3 creative captions for Instagram. Tone: fun and stylish. Content: [user input].
  3. Output Block – Display with copy buttons
  4. (Optional) Save to database or trigger webhook

🧰 Building in Replit (Low-Code)

const prompt = `Summarize this article into 3 key takeaways:\n\n${userInput}`;
const response = await openai.createCompletion({ prompt });

Display, send to another block, or store as needed.

⚙️ Automation Tips

  • Use system roles: "You are a productivity assistant. Be concise and friendly."
  • Specify output formats: lists, steps, summaries
  • Add fail-safes: "If input is missing, say: 'Please clarify your request.'"

📈 Weekly Exercise

  1. Pick a repetitive task you often do
  2. Write a clear task prompt
  3. Build the workflow in Lovable or Replit
  4. Test different inputs and optimize output

Did you give examples or context? Are your constraints too loose or too strict? Did you format the output instructions properly? Then iterate your prompt, one element at...

Behind the Scenes: How Generative AI Creates Music, Art, and Stories

When Machines Dream We’re living in a world where machines don’t just compute—they create. Generative AI is writing novels, composing symphonies, and painting pictures. But what’s really going on behind the screen? This post pulls back the curtain to reveal how generative AI actually creates —from writing a bedtime story to composing a lo-fi beat. Whether you're a curious creator or tech enthusiast, you’ll see the art of AI through a new lens. What is Generative AI, Really? Generative AI uses machine learning models—especially neural networks—to generate new content based on learned patterns. Trained on vast datasets, these models produce original music, images, and text based on user prompts. 1. How AI Writes Stories (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude) Step-by-step: You give a prompt: “Write a story about a lonely robot who finds a friend in the forest.” The model (like ChatGPT) draws on its training data to predict and generate the most likely next word, sentence, or paragr...
