Clay AMAs

Live at ama.smallgenai.com

Every answer from the Clay community's Ask Me Anything sessions, kept in one place: searchable by topic and guest, shareable into Slack, and swipeable as a card deck when you just want to catch up.

Unofficial and community-made. Questions and answers are quoted word for word from the public #10-ask-me-anything channel; each answer is the guest's own view.

What it does

• All answers / By topic. Every Q&A as a card with the full thread, or grouped into nine topics.
• Swipe deck. Any AMA, topic or search as a stack of cards, most upvoted first. Keep the good ones, skip the rest, undo, then copy what you kept into Slack.
• Share. Quote images sized for LinkedIn, "Copy for Slack" lists with thread links, Markdown downloads.
• Report. A one-page AMA report (program-wide or per guest) for the community team, exportable to PDF.
• Works offline and installs to the home screen (PWA).

the site

Nothing is paraphrased. The only written-by-AI text per thread is its short title and a 2–6 word topic line for share images.

Layout

Path	What it is
src/index.html	The app: one file of HTML, CSS and vanilla JS. Also published as a Claude artifact.
src/sw.js	Service worker template (offline, instant repeat visits).
public/	Data, report page, guest and member photos, icons, PDF libraries.
build.mjs	Dependency-free build: page head and metadata, the answer cards prerendered into the HTML (so crawlers and the first paint get them without JavaScript), FAQ structured data, self-hosted fonts, manifest, RSS, sitemap, versioned service worker.
site.config.json	Title, domain, analytics keys.
tools/render-images.mjs	Renders the app icons and the link-preview image (needs Playwright).
tools/artifact/	Builds the template the Claude artifact copy needs.

Editors

Editors sign in from the footer ("Editor sign-in") with an emailed link and get the Toolbox: program and guest reports, recap posts, the unanswered-questions sheet, exports, and hide/restore. Hiding commits to moderation.json through api/moderation.js, and Vercel redeploys within a minute.

Vercel environment variable	What it is
SESSION_SECRET	Long random string that signs sign-in links and sessions
ALLOWED_EDITORS	Comma-separated emails that can sign in, optionally with a display name: [email protected]=Kartik,[email protected]=Shriya
RESEND_API_KEY	Sends the sign-in emails
EMAIL_FROM	e.g. Clay AMAs <[email protected]> (a domain verified in Resend)
GITHUB_TOKEN	Fine-grained token with contents read/write on this repo
