Connect Forem and Teachworks
When New article fires in Forem, your agent runs Add payment allocation in Teachworks, or Lesson Completed in Teachworks to Get user in Forem. 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.
