Connect Buttondown and GitHub
When New Draft fires in Buttondown, your agent runs Add Labels to Issue in GitHub, or New Branch in GitHub to Create Email in Buttondown. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.
What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it.
