Daily YouTube Digest
Set up a daily summary of new videos from your favorite YouTube channels or by keyword: the agent fetches transcripts, extracts key insights and delivers a digest daily or on demand.
Requirements
The youtube-full skill and a TranscriptAPI account with an API key. According to the source, signup includes 100 credits with no credit card required; check the service's current terms before setup.
An alternative installation method is npx clawhub@latest install youtube-full.
According to the source, channel/latest and channel/resolve use no credits, while fetching one transcript uses 1 credit.
>Как настроить
Install the youtube-full skill and have your agent set up the YouTube digest for you.
"Install the youtube-full skill and set it up for me"
Alternatively, install the youtube-full skill with this command.
npx clawhub@latest install youtube-full
Option 1: channel-based digest. Give your agent this prompt with your own channels: it will fetch new videos each morning, get transcripts and deliver a digest with key points, title, channel and link.
Every morning at 8am, fetch the latest videos from these YouTube channels and give me a digest with key insights from each:
- @TED
- @Fireship
- @ThePrimeTimeagen
- @lexfridman
For each new video (uploaded in the last 24-48 hours):
1. Get the transcript
2. Summarize the main points in 2-3 bullets
3. Include the video title, channel name, and link
If a channel handle doesn't resolve, search for it and find the correct one.
Save my channel list to memory so I can add/remove channels later.
Option 2: keyword-based digest — for tracking new videos on a specific topic.
Every day, search YouTube for new videos about "OpenClaw" (or "Claude Code", "AI agents", etc).
Maintain a file called seen-videos.txt with video IDs you've already processed.
Only fetch transcripts for videos NOT in that file.
After processing, add the video ID to seen-videos.txt.
For each new video:
1. Get the transcript
2. Give me a 3-bullet summary
3. Note anything relevant to my work
Run this every morning at 9am.
This seen-videos file approach means you never waste credits re-fetching videos you've already seen.
Ask for different digest styles: key takeaways, notable quotes, timestamps of interesting moments.
