Ship a lead magnet micro-app (a scored quiz, or a guide opt-in) that writes to a Sheet and sends the confirmation
ComingTwo Vercel micro-apps: a creator quiz that writes answers to a Google Sheet through a service account, and a website guide opt-in wired to Google Apps Script and an n8n workflow.
Kit
No separate kit. The playbook is self-contained.
You need
| Account | Why | Free or paid | Plan |
|---|---|---|---|
| Claude Code (Anthropic Claude Pro or Max) | The AI operator every system runs through. Skills, hooks, memory, MCP servers and the Brain plugin all load inside Claude Code. | Paid | Claude Pro (20 USD/mo) works for light use; Max (100 USD or 200 USD/mo) for daily multi-hour sessions. Anthropic terms require each user to hold their own subscription; never share a login. |
| Node.js 24 (npm, npx) | Runs Claude Code, the Vercel CLI, HyperFrames renders, Playwright, the MCP servers and every serverless function locally. | Free | Free. Node 24 LTS (the Brain MCP server and Vercel functions target Node 24). |
| Vercel | Hosts every site, funnel, dashboard and serverless API (subscribe, book, attribution, AC proxy). Runs the cron jobs declared in vercel.json. | Free tier available | Pro (20 USD/mo per seat). The Hobby plan forbids commercial use, so any client site or paid product must be on Pro. Hobby is fine for a personal portfolio. |
| Google Cloud service account (Sheets API) | Server-side writes to a Google Sheet from Vercel functions (funnel signup backup, quiz results, booking sheet). | Free | Free. |
| Google account (Gmail sender, Drive, Sheets, Calendar) | Sender address for transactional mail, Gmail app password for the legacy booking poller, Drive and Sheets in the n8n research workflows, Calendar and YouTube ownership. | Free tier available | A free Gmail account works for automations; Google Workspace Business Starter (about 7 USD/mo) if you want mail on your own domain. |
| n8n (cloud or self-hosted) | Scheduled automations: Instagram research agent, Skool engagement digest, Supabase keep-alive pings, Calendly to Sheets go-live. The seven n8n skills and the n8n-mcp server build workflows from Claude Code. | Free tier available | n8n Cloud Starter (about 24 USD/mo) for hosted; self-hosted community edition is free on any VPS. |
