Screenshot of the prompt I gave Claude: Alright Claude, let's vibe code. I need an HTML page that contains a bookmarklet link and a textarea. When that bookmarklet is dragged into the browser's bookmarks bar, it should create an array from the textarea contents by splitting each line of text into a separate string. When the bookmarklet is activated by the user, it should do the following: If I am on any subpage of https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/ and an H1 tag with the class "wp-block-whitehouse-topper__headline" is present, it should choose a random string from the stored array and replace the content of the H1 with it.
