What it does

A six-step Claude Code pipeline by Hasan Aboul Hasan that takes a raw talking-head recording to a published YouTube video. Every on-screen moment is built as Remotion TSX and composited over your cut, and a /brand-setup skill makes the output match your channel. A free step-by-step guide on his site walks through setup.

Use when

• edit a YouTube talking-head video end to end
• add code-built screen graphics instead of screen recordings
• brand a repeatable channel format

Install

• Claude Code: git clone https://github.com/hassancs91/claude-youtube-editor
