Claude Code Expert & MCP Engineer | AI Agents, n8n Automation

"We had a fully manual content process and now have an automated pipeline that pulls videos, schedules posts, and handles captions without anyone touching it." That is a client of mine, and it is the shape of most of my work. Something a person was doing by hand every week, turned into a system that runs on its own and that their team actually understands. I am Sage. I build with Claude Code, MCP and n8n. WHAT I ACTUALLY DO Most of my work now sits in three places. Claude Code and Claude Cowork. Setting it up properly on your machine and inside your real project, building Claude Skills, and getting your team to the point where they use it daily rather than trying it once and drifting away. I have done this as a build and as live tutoring, depending on what the client wanted. Custom MCP servers. Connecting Claude directly to the tools your business already runs on, so the work happens in one window instead of six. This is new enough that very few people build them properly, and it is the part of my work I enjoy most. n8n, Make com and Zapier. Lead capture and qualification, CRM automation, onboarding, follow ups, data syncing between systems that were never designed to talk to each other, document processing, and reporting that compiles and sends itself. Where a project needs real code underneath, I work in Python, JavaScript and React, and I have built dashboards, internal tools and MVPs. HOW I WORK I understand your actual process before I build anything, because most inefficiency is a workflow problem rather than a missing tool. I map where your time is going, tell you honestly what is worth automating and what is not, and get your sign off before any build starts. Clear milestones, so you always know what is shipping next. Every system documented in plain language, so your team owns it and is never locked into depending on me. If I vanished tomorrow, your automation would keep running and somebody on your side could explain how it works. And I will tell you when automation is the wrong answer, even when it costs me the work. That happens more often than people expect, and hearing it is cheaper for you than paying me to build the wrong thing. WHO I AM NOT FOR If you are shopping for the lowest hourly rate on Upwork, there are people here who will meet it and some of them are good. I am not one of them. If you want something built quickly and left undocumented so it demos well, I am the wrong person, because that is precisely the thing I get hired to come and fix six months later. And if there is no process yet, only an idea, I can help you design one, but I cannot automate something that does not exist. WHAT THE RECORD SAYS 36 contracts. 846 hours. 100% job success. Top Rated Plus. Six contracts running right now, and my longest has been going since September 2025. Another client, on a dashboard build: "Sage successfully utilized Claude Code and Claude Cowork for architecture planning, code generation, debugging, documentation, code reviews, technical design, and engineering workflow optimization, helping our team ship features faster." And from an ongoing n8n contract: "She is very skilled and knowledgeable with n8n Automation builds. She thinks outside the box for solutions." I am an n8n Certified Expert Partner. That is a credential from n8n themselves rather than a course certificate, and very few individual freelancers hold it.

I will reply with a short video walkthrough showing how I would automate it, and a plan, before you spend anything.
