I did a similar thing for Buildfeed.tech earlier this year, and my includes transcripts and an MCP - All product focused videos from 100+ top channels on YT
Karpathy just fixed YouTube in 2 hours. On a weekend.
> He got tired of YouTube's recommendations
> So he had Claude go through 43 million Hacker News comments from the last 20 years
> It found the YouTube videos smart people kept recommending again and again
> That boiled down to 6,454 videos actually worth watching
> He turned them into a site called HackerTube
> Total build time was about 2 hours with Claude Opus 5.5
> No algorithm chasing your clicks, just 20 years of real recommendations
Cool stuff I would say 🫡

Weekend hack: HackerTube. I was annoyed with YouTube's recommendations so I had Claude filter down 43M comments over 20 years of HN to 6,454 videos that keep being recommended. *Significantly* better viewing experience, ~2 hours with Opus 5.5:
hackertube.org/
- Excellent recs without any logins (state is kept in local browser session)
- Thumbnail is a representative frame from middle of the video instead of the super duper A/B test hyper-optimized user uploads
- Underlying data from the comment analysis as one zip file, point your Claude at it and ask for your own version
- HackerTube Longs ✊
A bit more on the process:
I use Claude Code (desktop app for Mac), Opus 5.5 on Medium effort as my default. I only talk to Claude and have it do everything, the only "manual work" I helped with in tandem was in the browser (reminiscent of MenuGen): 1) I had to create some kind of API key from Google Cloud UI to query YouTube for video metadata, 2) I booted up a VPS box for serving and 3) I bought the domain name. Once the box was up I gave Claude the IP and told it update, secure, harden, deploy and optimize the code, and it did the whole thing.
Many awesome projects that would have normally taken weeks/months even can now be few-shotted for breakfast. What else are we not thinking of.

I built a design system. Then I gave it AI and it started moving.
But it wasn't thinking.
It was twitching. So I built it a brain 🧠⚡

I wrote a blog post to share my whole experience of building an iOS app for the first time — from the initial idea and Figma designs to branding, Claude, Figma MCP, Xcode, and eventually turning it into a real app. 😅

Okay, This is a big Hermes Desktop update 👀
Hermes can now actually use the Preview pane.
Not just open a page.
Not just read a page.
Use it.
Click. Type. Scroll. Navigate. Annotate.
Inside the same visible browser pane you are watching.
That is a big deal.
It means Hermes Desktop is starting to feel a lot less like a chat window attached to tools and a lot more like an agent that can work through web tasks in front of you.
Think about the use cases:
→ Open documentation and show you exactly where a setting lives
→ Walk through a setup flow and point out what to click
→ Search a site, open the right result, and keep moving
→ Work through a dashboard while you supervise
→ Annotate important controls on a crowded page
→ Reproduce a web issue step by step
→ Fill out multi-step web workflows with you watching
→ Find the right tutorial or guide and take you straight to it
That changes the feel of Hermes Desktop.
Because now Hermes is not just telling you what to do.
It can show you, point to it, and act on it in the same workspace.
This one opens up a lot!!!

Highly recommend if you’re in YC
We want someone from the YC Fall batch who would give us a lot of room to explore, be creative and make a super unique brand.
Like we did with Sparkles (W26), Revnu (P26) and Remedy (not YC).
If you just got accepted and your brand still has the AI-generated brand, DM me or book a call on the website.
P.S bonus points for something hand drawn and goofy
