Each guide is a task you can follow from start to finish. They all use Hiring Signals, the routine built from the `jobs-watch` template in the [Quickstart](/introduction/quickstart), and every command output shown is what the CLI printed.

| Guide | You will |
|---|---|
| [Build your first routine](/guides/first-routine) | Fill in `app.toml`, read the permission screen, publish and seed the Desk, create the task and verify a report-only run |
| [Move an n8n workflow to a routine](/guides/n8n-to-routine) | Map a scheduled workflow's trigger, nodes, sheet and send onto a routine |
| [Add a Desk to a routine](/guides/add-a-desk) | Give an approval-gated routine a Desk, then put two producers on one Desk |
| [Tune learning](/guides/tune-learning) | Change thresholds and signals, and choose between Reject and switching learning off |

Steps that happen on claude.ai, such as publishing an artifact or creating a scheduled task, are described but not shown, because they depend on your account.
