Steps

Find your channel's feed: https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=YOUR_CHANNEL_ID (channel ID is in YouTube Studio → Settings → Channel → Advanced).
Create a bot named 'Weekly Digest' with the prompt below and give it the feed URL.
Ask it on a set day each week (or set a recurring reminder) to draft the digest from the last 7 days.
Paste into beehiiv, add your personal note at the top, test, schedule.

Prompt

Using my YouTube RSS feed {FEED URL}, list every video published in the last 7 days.
For each: title, link, and a 1–2 sentence 'why watch' based only on the title and description (don't guess at content you can't see).
Then write: subject line (under 50 characters), preview text, and a one-sentence opener.
Order the videos by what a new reader would find most useful, and mark your top pick.
After the draft, list every claim, stat or fact I should verify, with exactly where it appears: the video's title or description, and the timestamp if the description gives one.

Replace anything in {BRACES} with your own details. Always review output before you post or send it.
