Read an article about analyzing Garmin data with AI. Sounded great — except I didn't want to send my health data to any cloud service.

So I asked Claude to write me 2-3 scripts and a dashboard. This escalated a bit. 30 days and 20$ later I have this:

A local-first Garmin archive with interactive HTML dashboards, Excel exports, weather and pollen context, AES-256 encrypted token storage, and a self-healing data pipeline with 515 automated tests. Windows desktop app, no terminal needed. Nothing leaves your machine.

I never wrote a line of Python. I understood the problems and made the architectural decisions. Claude wrote everything else.
