Over the past few days, I’ve been working on a solution to efficiently summarize and search my YouTube subscriptions. After building my AIOS (AI Operating System) and "Brain Matter" (my personal knowledge base) over the weekend, I’ve developed a workflow last night that works exceptionally well. Attached below is an infographic detailing the skill's capabilities, a progress in Obsidian as I further refined the skill, along with screenshots of the Markdown files it generates. A key feature is the prompt system—it allows you to choose between a fresh data fetch, grabbing the latest videos, or performing a local search, which saves significantly on token usage. I’ve also included "in progress" shots of my Brain Matter in Obsidian. The initial ingest processed 11,500 videos from 41 channels from over the past year, in just 10 minutes. Future fetches will only save new videos summaries into the raw folder then ingest them automatically. I have included a summary overview of the entire process so you can create your own.

Over the weekend, I was working through the AIOS project from the classroom. I've successfully migrated everything over from my old setup. I really enjoyed the lesson and the new workflow. I also implemented a second brain using Obsidian, which has been great for building out the knowledge base as discussed in the later lessons. As Buzz Lightyear would say, "To Infinity and Beyond!" #AISOS

I made some changes to use gemini and google ai studio in the infographic-builder skill instead of kies.ai.

So, I did end up using trigger.dev to use @Nate Herk suggestions. Boy, did I dive in tonight and learn quite a bit about automations, api keys, and how awesome Claude Code really is in developing these automations. - What you deployed - Here are two screenshots - first is the run in trigger.dev, and the second is the result of the run when it sent the email to my personal email. - What it does - Checks Alex Hormozi's YouTube channel at 6:00 AM each morning and then shoots me a direct email summarizing each video from the day before. The email includes links to the direct videos if I want to watch them in full. The first run I did videos for the past 5 days, but it will only do daily snippets going forward. I built it in so it doesn't duplicate. - One thing that broke: while building, the YouTube API did not have a direct way to pull the transcripts, or it was limited in the API. Claude figured out a fix and resolved the issue on its own. Claude Summary of what I now have: - Daily 6:00 AM Central check of Alex Hormozi's YouTube channel - Transcript → AI summary → email digest to my email address - Redis-backed dedup so you never get the same video twice - Already backfilled and confirmed on the last 5 days (31 videos) One thing worth remembering long-term: transcript pulling relies on an unofficial method, so if a digest ever comes through saying "transcript unavailable" for a video, that's the known failure mode — not a bug, just YouTube changing something upstream. Bonus: I did do my first GitHub upload ever tonight. Hell Yeah! I bounced around a few sites to get APIs to have it automate successfully. The only one that was paid was Claude Console. It used .07 today for the initial run, I imagine it will be cheaper with subsequent runs. I put $5.00 on the account. The automation uses the following API keys: YouTube_API_KEY ANTHROPIC RESEND UPSTASH Trigger Secret Key

I guess it's just general discussion, but I was wondering if there are any people in this group who have been struggling in general; not necessarily just with AI, but you know, having a good balance between work and health, both physical and mental. I know that I've struggled with that for a very long time, and AI made things easier; but I, for a while, was super focused on work and I had put my health aside; it's definitely paying off right now, but not necessarily something that I would recommend LOL I'm just curious to see how's everyone doing in this group, and maybe the way you manage your life can help others with similar issues!
