alt Hacker NewsNot a great use case for Claw really. I'm sure ChatGPT can one shot a Python script to do this with yt-dlp and give you instructions on how to set it up as a service

ChatGPT can do it w/o draining your bank account etc. I’d agree…
But for speed only, I think it’s “your idea but worse” when the steps include something AND instructions on how to do something else. The Signal/Telegram bot will handle it E2E (maybe using a ton more tokens than a webchat but fast). If I’m not mistaken.
You've gotta run it somewhere though - that's the harder part.
I mean that’s sort of where I think this all will land. Use something like happy cli to connect to CC in a workspace directory where it can generate scripts, markdown files, and systemd unit files. I don’t see why you’d need more than that.
That cuts 500k LoC from the stack and leverages a frontier tool like CC
Yeah it’s all the stuff beyond the one-shotting of the script that make it useful though.
You just get the final result. The video you requested saved.
No copy pasting, no iterating back and forth due to python version issues, no messing around with systemd or whatever else, etc.
Basically the difference between a howto doc providing you instructions and all the tools you need to download and install vs just having your junior sysadmin handle it and hand it off after testing.
These are miles apart in my mind. The script is the easy part.
