Automated Bolt.new Project Status Reports

Every Monday, WebRun opens Bolt.new, walks your project list, notes what changed in each project last week and which ones have sat untouched, drafts a plain status email in Gmail for you to review and send, and posts the same short summary to your Slack build channel.

In short

How do I get a weekly status update on all my Bolt.new projects?

WebRun opens Bolt.new every Monday and reviews your project list, noting what changed last week, what is published, and what has sat idle. It drafts a plain-English status email in Gmail for you to approve and send, and posts the same summary to your Slack build channel.

  • Stakeholders get a status update every week without you writing one
  • Idle projects surface before they are forgotten
  • The email waits in drafts so you always have the last word

Step by step

What does WebRun do on every run?

The exact actions WebRun takes, in order - in plain language, so you can adjust anything.

  1. WebRun signs in and gets to work

    Opens bolt.new in a real browser with your saved login - no setup, no API keys.

  2. 1
    Bolt.new - review every project's state
    bolt.new
    WebRun in Bolt.new: review every project's state

    • Open Bolt.new and list every project in your workspace
    • For each project, note the name, when it was last edited, and whether the latest version has been published
    • Flag projects edited last week and projects untouched for more than 14 days
    • Capture the short description or prompt heading so the summary reads as plain English

    Done when Every project has a last-edited date, a publish state, and an active or idle flag.

  3. 2
    Gmail - draft the stakeholder update
    gmail.com
    WebRun in Gmail: draft the stakeholder update

  4. 3
    Slack - post the build summary
    slack.com

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it email my stakeholders on its own?

No. The update is written into Gmail as a draft and stays there. You read it, edit anything you like, and press send. Nothing leaves your account unapproved.

Does it edit or publish my projects?

No. WebRun only reads your Bolt.new project list and their last-edited and publish state. It never opens the editor, changes code, or publishes anything.

What counts as an idle project?

Anything untouched for more than 14 days, and you can change that window. Idle projects are listed separately so long-running work is not mistaken for something stalled.

Put this on autopilot.
