Workflow for Automated Study Planning
A developer documented a process for creating and organizing a self-study curriculum using Claude and TickTick. The workflow took about an hour to implement.
Key Steps from the Source
- Found a YouTube video about building a self-study curriculum
- Put the video transcript into Claude (potentially using Claude Cowork feature, though the developer noted it might not be necessary)
- Claude asked questions and generated a Word document outlining the curriculum
- Connected TickTick to Claude using the ticktick-mcp repository: https://github.com/jacepark12/ticktick-mcp
- Posted the curriculum Word file in Claude and asked it to set up project tasks in TickTick and provide a calendar view
Results Generated
The automated process produced:
- Full curriculum list organized by subject
- Shopping list for necessary supplies
- Book purchase list
- Project tasks in TickTick
- Calendar view of the study plan
