Homepage Charts (Google Sheets)

Tracks every time a graphic made by Ben's Reuters team is featured on the reuters.com homepage:

  • Homepage Charts: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ZfPHAdOJiK8vsQXpdslHXERRHDukZA8WXTuSY9JMbms/edit

Sheet Structure

List tab

Columns: Date, Chart, Notes

  • Date: Date the chart appeared on the homepage (YYYY-MM-DD). Use today's date if not specified.
  • Chart: Brief description of the chart (e.g., Oil prices this year, US Consumer Price Index month to month). Capitalize the first letter of the chart title.
  • Notes: Optional additional context or notes (usually left blank)

Google Workspace MCP

Use the Google Workspace MCP for spreadsheet 1ZfPHAdOJiK8vsQXpdslHXERRHDukZA8WXTuSY9JMbms. Always pass user_google_email: "kip@palewi.re"; do not use gog. Read List with read_sheet_values, check for a same-date duplicate, append with modify_sheet_values, and read back the new row.

  • Always confirm before adding entries

  • Date: Use today's date (YYYY-MM-DD) unless Ben specifies otherwise

  • Chart: Use the brief description Ben provides

  • Notes: Leave blank ("") unless Ben explicitly provides a note

  • No duplicates: Don't create duplicate entries for the same chart on the same date
