summary

Practical automation recipes that actually run: Python hooks into Alfred + Keyboard Maestro + Hazel (OS X) and equivalents on Linux to trigger scripts, with concrete demos — prettify JSON/SQL; currency convert and timezone list; rotate images via ImageMagick; template-driven document generation and clipboard-driven paste of Chrome title/URL. File-system rules auto-resize and upload images to a CDN. Claim is concrete: a few hours of scripting saves many repeat runs, and each example shows the command, the library/tool used, and the observable result.
