Good freelance gigs land in your inbox and get buried under newsletters and junk —
and by the time you see them, they're gone. This fixes that.
A Claude Code skill that reads your Gmail job-leads folder every day, keeps only
the gigs worth your time (your hourly-rate gate, no agencies), and pings them
straight to Slack. Inbound filtering — NOT spammy auto-apply.
WHAT'S INSIDE
• SKILL.md — the scanner's logic + a build plan Claude follows to wire it up for
YOUR Gmail + Slack (classifies leads: Good Opportunity / Manual Check / skip,
with dedup so nothing pings twice)
• A click-by-click, Claude-Code-first HTML tutorial (you mostly paste prompts;
progress saves as you go)
• .env config — your label, rate bands, agency on/off, Slack webhook, schedule
WHO IT'S FOR
Freelancers, VAs, and jobseekers drowning in job-alert emails who want only the
right gigs surfaced — automatically, every day.
WHAT YOU NEED
Claude Code, a Gmail account + a way for Claude to read it (a Gmail MCP or Gmail
API creds), and a Slack incoming webhook. Optional: a VPS for the 24/7 cron.
It never auto-applies or replies — it only filters and alerts you. Your data goes
only to your own Slack.
☕ Less manual work, more gigs that actually fit.
