You'll need a coding agent

The Chrome session is the moat.

Your real browser is signed into Vercel, Twilio, your bank, your email, your Gmail, your Sheets. The agent that shares your Chrome session can do anything you're already logged into. The one that spawns its own can't.

Your turn

Pick one. Ship it. Real artifact, real user.

Pattern: anything you've manually done 3+ times this month is a candidate. Spend an hour. Use a coding agent. Ship the artifact.
