Description

Over the years I had written dozens of Google Docs documents, that I wanted to post to my website. Not only Google Docs's publish feature is broken and incomplete, Google does not index Google Docs either. So I set out to fix it for myself using AI agents. Sharing here in case someone else finds it useful.
