Why this subagent
Native clips travel further on X than a bare YouTube link, but cutting and posting one for every upload is tedious. This agent watches your channel and fires the moment a new video goes live.
It trims a short hook clip, writes a framing tweet, and posts the clip natively, then drops the full link as a reply. You publish to YouTube as usual and the agent handles the cross-post to X without you touching an editor.
