Make is Zapier for people who outgrew Zapier: real branching, iterators, error handlers, and a canvas you can actually reason about. A bot writing code beats a visual canvas on every axis except one - you can look at a Make scenario six months later and understand it, and you cannot always say that about a script a bot wrote while you were asleep. Same verdict as Zapier for the same reason: your four integrations, yes; the catalogue of two thousand, no.
the prompt
Written for a bot that already has a browser, a terminal and your logins · paste it in whole.
You have a computer, a browser and my logins. Replace my Make scenarios with code you run yourself. Build: - One worker process. One file per scenario. A scheduler. SQLite for state and for an execution log. - Every run writes a row: scenario, started, finished, outcome, and the input payload. I want to be able to see what happened without reading your logs. - A page at /runs on localhost showing the last 200 runs, filterable by scenario and outcome. This is the replay-and-debug view and it is not optional. The scenarios - ask me for my four before you start, and don't guess. Error handling, which is the actual reason I used Make: - Retry with exponential backoff, three attempts. - After that, park the payload in a dead_letter table and message me. Never drop it. - Give me a button on /runs to replay a dead-lettered payload once I've fixed the cause. Rules: - Idempotency keys on everything. If a webhook arrives twice, do the work once. - Never poll faster than once a minute. - Anything that sends mail, posts publicly, or moves money stops and asks me the first time. After I approve that scenario once, it can run on its own.
what you lose
- 2,000+ maintained connectors
- a visual canvas you can debug at a glance
- execution history with a replay button
- error handling that was designed rather than remembered
