EverydayExplainer is a self-improving AI content pipeline for producing short-form YouTube explainer videos. The system generates scripts, fact-checks claims through web research, reviews output against anti-slop quality rules, and continuously improves future episodes using analytics-based learnings. It was built as a modular automation workflow orchestrated with Claude Code subagents and triggered through a homelab cron setup.

Starting point

The Challenge

Producing consistent short-form explainer content requires repeated work across ideation, scripting, fact-checking, quality control, and performance review. The challenge was to turn these separate steps into a repeatable system that improves over time without requiring a growing amount of historical context for each new run.

Approach

The Solution

I built a modular agentic workflow powered by Claude Code. Specialized subagents handle analytics reflection, script generation, fact-checking through web research, and anti-slop review. Instead of passing full episode history into every run, the system stores only stable project rules and curated learnings, creating a scalable self-improving pipeline with controlled context growth.
