Python Automation Script Development

My daily workflow still relies on a handful of repetitive, manual steps and I’d like to replace those clicks and copy-pastes with a clean Python script. I don’t have any existing code, so we’ll be starting from scratch.

Your job is to analyse the current manual process with me, decide on the most efficient approach, and then write a well-structured, well-commented Python program that runs end-to-end without supervision. The finished script should install with a simple `pip install -r requirements.txt`, accept any needed configuration from a small settings file or CLI flags, and output clear logs so I can see what happened at a glance.

Please factor in:

• Robust error handling so it never stalls halfway through
• Readable functions and docstrings so I can extend it later
• A brief “how to run” section in a README

If you’ve built similar automation before—especially with libraries such as pathlib, pandas, openpyxl, selenium, or requests—let me know. I’m ready to get started as soon as we agree on milestones and a testing approach.
