Take a video from thumbnail to published with promo posts
Cowork proposes a Figma thumbnail, uploads the video to YouTube with metadata, and drafts and schedules X, Bluesky and LinkedIn promo posts.
Done withClaude Cowork
- What they did
- Sean drops an exported video into an inbox folder in a Cowork project. Cowork transcribes it locally with Whisper and proposes titles and descriptions. It opens Figma, builds a thumbnail from his template, and after his tweaks uploads to YouTube. It then drafts X, Bluesky and LinkedIn posts in Markdown for his edits. It posts or schedules them, using a custom scheduled task for Bluesky.
- How it went
- The process still takes more than the one-hour goal, because each run turns up small system tweaks. Sean says the foundation gets stronger each time but that he hasn't proven the hypothesis.
- Worth knowing
- Bluesky has no native scheduling, so Cowork created a scheduled task to post at the right time. Expect to keep refining the setup over the first several runs.
