How this hub works
It's the shared board for every faceless channel: what's been made, what's queued, and what goes live on which day.
The loop
- A video gets created with a title and a script (usually pushed in from a portfolio repo, or added here with + Video).
- You generate it in the video software.
- You upload the result to Drive and paste the link onto the video here. Until you do, the video shows a no drive link flag.
- On its scheduled day, a video that's marked Generated flips itself to Posted and moves to the Archive.
Video statuses
- New — exists, nothing done yet.
- Waiting — queued for generation.
- Generating — in the video software now.
- Generated — done and uploaded, ready to go live.
- Posted — live on YouTube, archived.
Only Generated auto-flips to Posted. Anything else just sits there showing overdue — that's the signal that generation is running behind, and it's deliberate.
Scheduling
Every video has a scheduled date. You never have to set it: a new video lands the day after that channel's last queued video, so a batch of ten spreads itself over ten days automatically. You can override it in the video's drawer.
The Calendar shows real dates — a video appears on the day it will actually post, so a day can hold none, one, or six videos.
Runway
The Runway view answers one question: which channel runs out of videos first. The bar is how many days of queue that channel has left. Amber under a week, red under three days.
Channel flags
- Break ⏸ — skip this channel until a date, then resume by itself.
- Killed 💀 — soft retire. Stays visible in red, nothing new gets scheduled into it, existing videos are untouched. Fully reversible.
- Live URL — the real YouTube link. Trust this over the status label to know whether a channel is actually up.
Where things end up
Posted videos go to the Archive tab and stay there. Nothing is ever deleted by archiving.
