all right this is my daily update for my all right this is my daily update for my all right this is my daily update for my build and public build and public build and public log it’s February 11th log it’s February 11th log it’s February 11th 2025 uh I have a pretty cool and 2025 uh I have a pretty cool and 2025 uh I have a pretty cool and interesting update today I I want to interesting update today I I want to interesting update today I I want to show you all an agent I tried to create show you all an agent I tried to create show you all an agent I tried to create a no code agent so I you know I’m doing a no code agent so I you know I’m doing a no code agent so I you know I’m doing this whole buildin public thing I do a this whole buildin public thing I do a this whole buildin public thing I do a daily update not only like am I like daily update not only like am I like daily update not only like am I like okay you just see the like a YouTube okay you just see the like a YouTube okay you just see the like a YouTube video but what you’re not seeing behind video but what you’re not seeing behind video but what you’re not seeing behind the scenes is I create a video I edit the scenes is I create a video I edit the scenes is I create a video I edit the video yeah it’s actually edited even the video yeah it’s actually edited even the video yeah it’s actually edited even though it’s not edited though it’s not edited though it’s not edited well uh I do have to like chop it down well uh I do have to like chop it down well uh I do have to like chop it down and and fix it up uh so then I export it and and fix it up uh so then I export it and and fix it up uh so then I export it and then I upload it to YouTube and I and then I upload it to YouTube and I and then I upload it to YouTube and I add a description and then I I go and I add a description and then I I go and I add a description and then I I go and I update um in a few places like hey update um in a few places like hey update um in a few places like hey here’s my update for the for the day it here’s my update for the for the day it here’s my update for the for the day it it takes it’s taking me a quite a long it takes it’s taking me a quite a long it takes it’s taking me a quite a long time to do all this it’s taking like an time to do all this it’s taking like an time to do all this it’s taking like an hour um sometimes even more hour um sometimes even more hour um sometimes even more so which is crazy because it’s like a so which is crazy because it’s like a so which is crazy because it’s like a you know 10 to 20 minute video so I need you know 10 to 20 minute video so I need you know 10 to 20 minute video so I need to automate this all drastically and to automate this all drastically and to automate this all drastically and quickly because quickly because quickly because um I still may be getting a big um I still may be getting a big um I still may be getting a big freelance freelance freelance project maybe this week I don’t know project maybe this week I don’t know project maybe this week I don’t know it’s very up in the air but there’s it’s very up in the air but there’s it’s very up in the air but there’s probably like a 50% chance I’m going to probably like a 50% chance I’m going to probably like a 50% chance I’m going to have to cut down the amount of hours I’m have to cut down the amount of hours I’m have to cut down the amount of hours I’m working on the business to to to get working on the business to to to get working on the business to to to get some money I I really uh I really really some money I I really uh I really really some money I I really uh I really really need money so if I do take on that need money so if I do take on that need money so if I do take on that freelance work it’s vital like right freelance work it’s vital like right freelance work it’s vital like right right now I get this I I I really can right now I get this I I I really can right now I get this I I I really can streamline my process because I don’t streamline my process because I don’t streamline my process because I don’t want to stop I’m not going to stop but I want to stop I’m not going to stop but I want to stop I’m not going to stop but I need to automate as much as humanly need to automate as much as humanly need to automate as much as humanly possible so with that said I took a stab possible so with that said I took a stab possible so with that said I took a stab at uh using in aen at uh using in aen at uh using in aen to uh to make a Automation and using to uh to make a Automation and using to uh to make a Automation and using their their agent and I’m pretty their their agent and I’m pretty their their agent and I’m pretty surprised at surprised at surprised at how crappy this has been uh like let me how crappy this has been uh like let me how crappy this has been uh like let me just let’s just dig in so what am I just let’s just dig in so what am I just let’s just dig in so what am I trying to do so every It’ll like trying to do so every It’ll like trying to do so every It’ll like pull and it hits my YouTube channel to pull and it hits my YouTube channel to pull and it hits my YouTube channel to get uh the latest video so it it looks get uh the latest video so it it looks get uh the latest video so it it looks back and it’s like okay ran look like back and it’s like okay ran look like back and it’s like okay ran look like let’s say it runs every hour okay in the let’s say it runs every hour okay in the let’s say it runs every hour okay in the last hour now there’s a new last hour now there’s a new last hour now there’s a new video oh there’s a new video cool now video oh there’s a new video cool now video oh there’s a new video cool now let’s continue on and start the let’s continue on and start the let’s continue on and start the flow um so what does it do it this is flow um so what does it do it this is flow um so what does it do it this is setting some setting some setting some data uh the it sets the video ID so you data uh the it sets the video ID so you data uh the it sets the video ID so you know on YouTube it’s like the the little know on YouTube it’s like the the little know on YouTube it’s like the the little ID at the ID at the ID at the end this will end this will end this will remove uh the videos it um it it already remove uh the videos it um it it already remove uh the videos it um it it already knows about and then it’s like is there knows about and then it’s like
