Ask Claude Cowork which of your drafts are ready to publish
What they did
Simon Willison pointed Claude Cowork at his blog-drafts folder and asked it to find drafts from the last three months, check whether each was already published on his site, and suggest the closest to ready.
How it went
Cowork found 46 draft files, ran 44 searches against his site and suggested three drafts. One pick was a mistake: the Datasette upgrade guide already lived in the project docs and was never meant for the blog. It also built an unrequested animated page that was squeezed into a narrow sidebar.

Replace anything in [brackets] with your details.
Look in the folder [folder name] for drafts I edited in the last [three] months. For each one, check whether I already published it on [my site] by searching my site. Then suggest the three closest to ready, with one line on what each still needs. Do not edit or delete any files. Read the original
