Claude Impact Lab LA: Community Changed the Code
TL;DR: A Claude Impact Lab session turned an idea into a collaborative project in a single day. The concept, Agenda Watch, aimed to make city agendas searchable in plain language with verifiable sources.
The author joined a Claude Impact Lab in LA where diverse participants form teams to build from a provided brief. The core idea was to improve civic transparency by making local government agendas searchable and understandable, with receipts linking to source documents. The project began as a spec, not code, and evolved through collaboration among strangers who became co-authors. The goal is to empower residents to ask plain-language questions and get reliable answers. The story highlights rapid, community-driven prototyping for civic tech.
Question for the room: What civic-tech idea have you iterated on in a hackathon or lab setting, and how did collaboration change it?
