YouTube Content Repurposing Workflow
This skill is brought to you by Leor, creator of Exploring ChatGPT on Substack, a publication covering science, physics, and AI with over 60,000 subscribers.
Leor was already doing live streams on Substack when a simple realization hit: he was sitting on a library of video content that could be reaching a YouTube audience with very little extra work. So he started experimenting with a stack of AI tools to turn those recordings into edited, polished YouTube videos.
What started as trial and error became a repeatable workflow. Within two to three months, he had monetized his YouTube channel using tools that anyone with a subscription can access today. The key lesson he kept coming back to: knowing where AI breaks is more valuable than knowing how to use it. Let it do what it does well. Step in where your taste and judgment beat the algorithm.
This skill captures that entire workflow, from raw transcript to published YouTube video, in a prompt you can run inside Claude Cowork.
Enjoy.
Problem This Skill Solves
You have recorded content, live streams, podcasts, interviews, sitting unused or only reaching one platform. Repurposing it for YouTube manually takes hours: editing, finding the best clips, writing titles and descriptions, generating thumbnails, and creating chapters. This skill walks you through the full workflow using Descript, ChatGPT, and Gemini together, with Claude guiding you at each step and flagging where human judgment beats automation.
