0:00There are so many AI agent tools out
0:02there and it's starting to get
0:03incredibly overwhelming. So, I spent
0:06$10,000 testing all of the different AI
0:09agent tools in pursuit of finding the
0:12greatest agent stack that exists today.
0:15And I've settled on what I think is the
0:16best stack of tools that I use for
0:19administrative tasks, running my
0:21business, and growing my following to
0:23over 2 million followers across all
0:26platforms. So today we're talking about
0:28my full AI agent stack and all of the
0:30main use cases for each one. I think
0:33you're going to be surprised at how I
0:34use these three agent platforms. It's a
0:37little bit different than how most
0:39people use them. And we're also going to
0:41be talking about a tool that sits at the
0:44center of my agent platforms that makes
0:46it easier to switch between them and it
0:50allows me to share plugins and skills.
0:52Okay, so many people ask me when do I
0:55use cloud code and when do I use codec?
0:57And so for these first eight use cases,
0:59that's exactly what we're going to be
1:00talking about. And so the first way that
1:02I use claude code that I think everyone
1:05should 100% be using is Claude projects.
1:09And so I made a video about a week ago
1:11where I said that you should not be
1:12using normal Claude and that you should
1:14be using Claude code because it's so
1:16much more powerful and it has access to
1:19all of the files on your computer. And
1:22running Cloud Code locally on your
1:23computer allows you to use prompts like
1:25this. Hey, there's a folder in my
1:27downloads called October 26th vlog.
1:29Please edit the video and post it on
1:31YouTube. And Claude Code can end to end
1:34complete this full task. But there's
1:36also another setting in Claude Code that
1:38you should 100% be aware of, right? Not
1:41only can you run it on your computer,
1:43you can also run it in a cloud session.
1:46It'll actually spin up a little
1:47computer, do anything that Cloud Code
1:49might want to do. it's just not running
1:51locally on your computer. And for a lot
1:53of tasks, that's really useful because
1:55you don't actually need your computer
1:56for all of the different tasks. And so
1:58if you think this is confusing, that's
2:02perfectly okay because cloud projects
2:04will actually manage this entire
2:06process. On the left here, you can see
2:08all of the cloud projects that I've
2:10created. And here I've opened up editor.
2:13And so this main session is just a
2:16coordinator session. and it will spin up
2:18different clawed sessions whether it is
2:21a local session or a session on my
2:24computer. So I can say something like
2:26this. Hello, I need you to please look
2:28at my latest videos in my downloads and
2:31I want you to make three clips and edit
2:33these locally on my computer and upload
2:35them to drive and give me a link to all
2:36three. So I can fire that prompt and
2:38look at this. It was actually sent to an
2:41existing thread. So sent to a thread.
2:43Here's a vertical clips from side
2:45channel video. And if you see right
2:47here, we can see that this is running
2:49locally on my computer. And so if I
2:52click on threads, I can actually see all
2:54of the different threads that are
2:56running right now. Some of which are on
2:58the computer and some of which are in
3:01the cloud. Like this one is in the cloud
3:03and all of these threads are are running
3:05in the cloud. And so right now we see
3:08that my local session is working. And if
3:10I click on this, we can see that the
3:12prompt that I entered here was
3:14automatically passed to this local
3:16session. And now cloud code is working
3:18and it's working locally on my computer.
3:20But I could say, hey, while that's
3:22working, I actually want you to look up
3:24best practices and create a little
3:26artifact for this. Like I want to create
3:28like a little webpage artifact that I
3:30can use and send to my team on best
3:32practices for clipping long- form videos
3:34into short form. This can just be done
3:36in the cloud. And so I can fire this
3:38prompt in the main thread or the
3:41coordinator thread called editor which
3:43is a cloud project. And here look at
3:45this. It says right clip. So it just
3:48created a new session. Notice here
3:50there's no little computer icon. This
3:52one's actually running in the cloud. And
3:54this is really useful because I can do
3:57all of this from my phone. And so if we
3:59open up the clawed iOS app and I click
4:02on this side panel right here and then I
4:05can see all of my projects right here.
4:07So if I click on editor I can see the
4:09sessions that are running right now. And
4:11so as long as my computer is on, I can
4:15fully control my computer using claw
4:18projects. Right here we can see that the
4:20web one is done. So let me click on
4:23this. It should have sent me a page.
4:26Here is the artifact that it sent me.
4:28And I can very easily see it. This is a
4:30sharable artifact that I can share with
4:32my team. And this is pretty cool. It's
4:35pretty easy. It shows the framing and
4:37safe zones, which is pretty cool. And
4:40one of my favorite things that I do with
4:41Claude projects is I will come down here
4:44to the bottom. I will press this button,
4:47open up the artifact, and then I'll just
4:49speak out the changes that I want to
4:50make. I actually want this to be better
4:53format and and just make the design a
4:55lot better and the top table. change it,
4:58please. And it allows me to just record
5:00my voice and I can create artifacts. And
5:02that's exactly how I created this
5:05presentation right here. I created this
5:07presentation this morning using Claude
5:09Projects from my phone walking back from
5:12the gym. I had this idea for this video.
5:14I said, "Create this slide deck and I
5:17have a very specific skill that I use
5:18for it." And when I got back, it was
5:20done. And so I use cloud projects to
5:23coordinate my cloud sessions, whether
5:26that's cloud sessions or my local
5:28sessions that are running on my
5:29computer. And this is very similar to
5:31how I use codecs or their new dots
5:33feature. You can very similarly you can
5:36speak to your dot and you can get it to
5:38coordinate codec sessions. And we'll
5:40talk about that a little bit later. But
5:42now for the next three items on this
5:44list, I want to talk about how I use
5:47cloud code or why I use cloud code and
5:49what sets cloud code apart from codecs.
5:53And so the first one is building apps.
5:56Some of you will recognize this. I
5:58talked about this in a previous video,
5:59but I have my own internal tool that is
6:01a mixture of like 10 different SAS apps
6:04that I use for everything. And that
6:05includes Excaladraw, right? We have all
6:07of my Excaladraw documents. This is my
6:10own clone of Excaladraw. All of it is
6:12stored in my own internal tool. I also
6:14have my mind built in which stores all
6:16of my bookmarks. I have all of my
6:19YouTube analytics and I even have my own
6:22video editing platform that I will talk
6:24about a little bit later. And in order
6:26to manage this entire site, I have this
6:29thing called native note. So this is
6:31called native note and this is where I
6:33build this app and make changes to this
6:35app. And so on my phone, I could very
6:38easily go to projects and we can move to
6:40my agent, my native note project and
6:44say, "Hey, what I need you to do right
6:46now is I actually don't like how on
6:48native note it has my pinned videos. Can
6:51you please remove that?" And then also
6:53move the conbon title to the top. We
6:56also don't need that little subtitle or
6:58this like horizontal line. And please
7:01make the filter by title thing pinned to
7:04the left instead of on the right. And
7:06yeah, please make the background have a
7:09little bit more texture to it, almost
7:10like it's like a white board. And I can
7:12fire that prompt off. Notice how I
7:14didn't specify whether I want it to be
7:16local or in the cloud. It will decide
7:18whether it needs my local computer or
7:20not. And we've been working a lot. And
7:22see here, I've sent the conbon cleanup
7:24to this thread, which I can click on.
7:27And here it is now building. And here
7:30you can see it received the message from
7:33the coordinator and it'll begin working.
7:35And so you can see here that Opus 5.5 is
7:38running on a cloud code session that is
7:41running locally on the computer and it
7:43is done with three out of the four
7:45tasks. It has made all those changes
7:48that we just asked and then now it's
7:49just waiting to deploy. So it actually
7:52shows up in native note. Okay. So now it
7:54is done and it should be live. And so if
7:57we go to native note, we press commandr
7:59and we refresh it, we see that we now
8:02have a new app here. It is updated. And
8:06so anytime I want to change to the app,
8:08whether I'm on my phone or my computer,
8:10I can just ask cla projects. All I need
8:12to do is go to the native note project,
8:14just ask it and it'll figure out how to
8:16do it. And so Claude Opus 5.5 right now,
8:19in my opinion, is at least for the
8:22things that I'm doing, it is the best at
8:24coding. And so it's best at creating
8:26apps, especially if it is very front-end
8:30focused. It's just very good at front
8:32end. And GPT 61 soul is also Frontier
8:35and it's amazing. It's just not the best
8:38at like front-end design. And so that is
8:40why I use Claude code specifically
8:43projects to build apps. And so the next
8:45thing that I use Claude for,
8:47specifically Claude projects, is I use
8:49it for design and slides. Yesterday,
8:52Anthropic released their S1, which is a
8:55required document outlining a ton of
8:57different things that's required before
8:58an IPO. And on my phone using Claude
9:01Projects, specifically, I was using my
9:03Rick Cra Claude project, which is
9:06basically like Claude Duet, which is my
9:08own little personal agent, but I just
9:10think projects is better. I talked to
9:11this agent on my phone. I was like, "Yo,
9:13this S1 came out. It's very textheavy
9:16and data heavy. I need to properly
9:18visualize it, organize it how we
9:20normally organize my videos and create a
9:22slide deck. And that this is what it
9:23created. It shows all of the data in
9:26this very easy to understand format
9:28where the money goes. I could look at
9:30their revenue, their operating costs.
9:32And what I've noticed is Enthropics
9:34models, especially Opus 5.5, is just
9:37incredible at visualizing information.
9:40take any information in the world, a PDF
9:44that's super data heavy or an Excel
9:45sheet, and just tell it to turn it into
9:47like this visual thing. Like here it
9:49says here is the amount of customers who
9:51spend around uh 250 or uh 250 spend 10
9:55mil or more. 1,900 people spend a
9:58million or more. And it just creates
9:59these little visual diagrams here. It
10:01shows revenue attention. So a customer
10:03spent a dollar a year earlier. That same
10:05customer spends $9 now, which is just
10:08absolutely unheard of. and it goes
10:09through all of its compute. It takes me
10:12through everything, all of their risks,
10:14and then also it just has really good
10:17organization. Many of you who watch my
10:19videos know that I have this working
10:21outline that gets filled in as we go
10:23through the video. And so, it's super
10:25cool. And then I had it do a data
10:26section at the end. And so, we can look
10:28at all the raw numbers. And it created
10:30this in three prompts. I just went back
10:32and forth on my phone saying like, "Hey,
10:34can you change this? Can you change
10:35this?" And this is how I learned about
10:37everything on the S1 was just with this
10:40slide deck. And again, this is not just
10:42slide decks too. This is also their
10:44claude design mode which is integrated
10:46with claude projects. This is actually
10:48where I originally designed native note
10:51as you can see here. This was how I kind
10:53of originally designed the entire app
10:55and I just iterated with Claude. I think
10:57I did this one on my computer, but you
10:59can create these designs on your phone.
11:00Anything you do on your computer, you
11:02can now do on your phone with cloud
11:03projects, which is why I use it so much.
11:05Just say, "Hey, create a Figma style
11:07design board. Create, you can create as
11:09many options as you want and then you
11:10can just select the option that you
11:12want. You can say, hey, push this to
11:13prod or implement these designs into the
11:15app that we're creating and it can spin
11:17up a local session to do that. It may
11:19design it in the cloud and may implement
11:21it using your computer and you don't
11:23even need to like know that. You can
11:25just let your agent do its thing." And
11:27so I use it for slide decks and then
11:29creating claw design. Now, here's for
11:31the most fun one and the most viable use
11:34case right now, and that is video
11:37editing. And so, I've been using Claude
11:39non-stop to edit my videos. In fact,
11:42these two videos right here, this how
11:44smart people are using AI and how I've
11:46been using Claude Duet, both of these
11:48videos were fully edited by AI. Now,
11:51there was some iteration, but they were
11:52edited by AI. And so using Claude
11:55projects was also how I've been creating
11:57these animated explainer videos with a
12:00very specific style. And so as you can
12:02see here, I created with Claude and we
12:05can actually see which model. So yeah,
12:07here are my prompts to create version
12:10one of this video. I used these prompts
12:12right here and it created this video
12:15which explained one of Karpathy's tweets
12:18>> with LLMs at all. Around 1 to two
12:20billion about 20% are casual and
12:23infrequent users of free tier chat GPT
12:26like products. This group sees derpy
12:28chat bots and treats them a bit like a
12:30better Google search or writing aid etc.
12:33Maybe an agent tries to book you a
12:35flight. I have non- tech friends who
12:37reasonably, in my opinion, say they have
12:40not much use for it at all. Even many
12:42professionals outside of math and code
12:44are in this tier. And then that was just
12:46version one. This was actually version
12:48two of the video. I basically made some
12:50changes with these prompts using Claude
12:52Opus 5.5 on projects and it made the
12:55video much better and it was more zoomed
12:57out. And I posted this video on Twitter
12:59and it actually got 2,000 likes and 160K
13:03views. And many people were commenting
13:06asking me about the skills. They're
13:08like, "Yo, share how you made it and do
13:10you mind sharing the prompt that led to
13:12the graphics or is it just Opus 5.5
13:14choice?" And by the way, this little app
13:16that you're seeing right here, this is
13:18V2. This is an app that I'm working on
13:21that will be free and open source. It is
13:22the GitHub for video editing. And it
13:25will allow your agents to create
13:28versions of the app that you create. And
13:30you'll be able to track all of the
13:31prompts and all of the different files
13:34that you use to create each video. And
13:37people on your team will be able to fork
13:39your video. You'll be able to share your
13:42videos and make them public. And yeah,
13:44I'm really excited about this project.
13:46And it is video editor agnostic. You can
13:48use any stack, you can use any agent,
13:50anything. All you do is copy a prompt,
13:52give it to Codeex and it will create
13:54version control for your video and all
13:57you need to do is go to v2.vide
14:00and you can sign up for the wait list.
14:02As soon as it's ready, we will send
14:04access to everyone who puts their email
14:06right here. I'm really excited about
14:08this. This is free and this will always
14:10be free. This is the GitHub for video
14:12editing. Working on it right now with my
14:14team. Okay, so in summary with cloud
14:15code, it's just incredible at creating
14:17things. And I think the best
14:19orchestrator of creating things is cloud
14:22projects because you can create
14:23different projects uh one for each of
14:25the apps that you're building. You can
14:27create an editor agent and a designer
14:28agent and it's really useful. But there
14:30are also things that Codeex is better at
14:32than Claude Code. And so now we need to
14:34move down the stack and we're going to
14:36get to codeex. What if your inbox could
14:38become a plan you actually use? This
14:41part of the video is sponsored by
14:43Superhum. As you guys know, I use AI
14:45tools for basically everything, and I
14:47already use Superhum for email, but
14:49pulling together deadlines and feedback
14:52still takes work. Superhuman mail and
14:54Superhum Docs are part of the Superhum
14:58productivity suite. Mail is the email
15:00app. Superdocs is a collaborative
15:03workspace for documents, tables, and
15:05project trackers. Both have connectors
15:07for the AI tools you already use. Here's
15:10a workflow I want to show you in chat
15:12GPT. First, I connect the superhuman
15:15mail and ask find the emails about my
15:17upcoming videos. What are the
15:19deliverable deadlines and latest
15:21feedback? Then using superdocs
15:23connector, it will turn that into a
15:26content calendar with a next action for
15:29every video. Flag anything that's
15:31missing. Now I have a plan I can review
15:33against the actual emails. When
15:35something changes, I can ask the AI to
15:38update the document. Try superhuman
15:40connectors today. You can sign up for
15:42superhum using my link in the
15:44description. So the first way that I use
15:47codecs all like all day every day
15:50basically is I use dots with voice. So
15:54if we were to measure how I use AI in
15:57minutes, this is the number one way I
15:59use AI. And I've gotten into a routine.
16:02I go to the gym in the morning, but I
16:03leave an hour and a half early and I
16:06walk around for an hour before I go to
16:08the gym talking to my DOT. So, dot is
16:11the personal agent platform that is in
16:14chat GBT. And I think the correct way to
16:16think about dot is it is a codeex
16:19orchestrator. The same way that cloud
16:21projects can delegate to uh cloud code
16:24sessions, dot can delegate to codec
16:27sessions. In the same way that cloud
16:29code can spin off cloud sessions and
16:31sessions running on your computer, dot
16:33can do the same thing with codecs. So I
16:36can call dot.
16:38>> Hey Riley, good to hear you.
16:40>> What's on your mind?
16:41>> Hey pal, I need you to check the recent
16:43changes that I've made to native note.
16:45Can you spin up a new codec session?
16:47Investigate it. And I actually want you
16:49to add that same background that we
16:51added to native note to the other pages
16:54like to the background of the list view
16:56and in the calendar view as well. Can
16:59you spin up a new codec session and then
17:00uh push your changes to prod
17:02>> on it. I'll open a fresh codec session
17:04and dig through those recent changes
17:05now. I'm getting a new session ready for
17:08that background update now including a
17:10prod push once it's checked.
17:11>> Thank you buddy.
17:12>> Of course.
17:13>> And look at this. It shows Unifi native
17:16note backgrounds. If I click on this
17:18right here, we can see that it's spun
17:20up.
17:20>> Thanks for waiting. The new codec
17:22session is running on your MacBook Pro
17:24and inspecting native note. The changes
17:26and production push are still ahead.
17:28I'll keep an eye on it and let you know
17:30as soon as there's something to review.
17:34>> Okay, that's great. Yep, I can see the
17:37codec session running in the sidebar.
17:39While that's running, can you actually
17:40spin up a new cloud session real quick
17:42and just do some research for me on how
17:45people are video editing with AI? I want
17:48like an in-depth report and you can
17:50create a pages, you know, a G in GPT
17:53space, you have the new page feature. I
17:55want you to create pages. I want
17:57diagrams of exactly how this is working
17:59and um and uh yeah, that's what I kind
18:02of want to know is like what are the
18:03strategies people are using? What are
18:05the types of skills people are using?
18:06put it into GPT pages and yeah, spin
18:08this out and put codeex using the GPT6
18:11soul model to do this.
18:13>> Yep, I got it. I'll start that cloud
18:15session with GPT6 soul for the in-depth
18:18report on AI video editing with pages
18:20and diagrams showing how the tools and
18:23skills fit together. And meanwhile, I'll
18:25keep an eye on that native note session
18:26so we're not doing anything twice.
18:28>> Amazing. Yeah. Cool. And then actually
18:31once you're done with spinning up that
18:32session, can you do you mind just give
18:34me a little report here in the chat on
18:36like what videos I'm working on in in
18:38notion my long form videos?
18:39>> Sure. I'll pull that up. I'll check
18:41notion for your current long- form
18:43videos and put a short status report
18:45here in chat.
18:46>> Thanks pal. So that's why I use dots
18:48with voice. It is like talking to a
18:50human that can use codeex for you. And
18:53so codeex is like very very good at a
18:56lot of things. And the next reason I use
19:00dots and codecs as like one of the main
19:02tools that I use is it has incredible
19:04computer use. In fact, whenever I edit a
19:07video and I really like the video and I
19:09get to my final version, I just asked my
19:11dot. I said, "Hey, the video's ready,
19:13post it on YouTube, and what it'll do is
19:15it'll analyze the transcript of the
19:16video. It will go through in Chrome,
19:19upload the YouTube video there, fill out
19:21all of the details, get the description
19:23ready, look at my emails, you know, if
19:26it's a sponsored video and I need to
19:28include like a link in the description,
19:29it'll add it there automatically and
19:31then it will save it as a draft and then
19:33my dot will just message me like your
19:35dot your draft is created here. Go ahead
19:37and look at it and when you're ready,
19:38you can post it. It's incredibly useful
19:41and computer use with codecs is amazing.
19:45Next time you're on your phone and you
19:46leave your laptop open, just go to your
19:48dot and be like, "Hey, spin up a new
19:49codec session and ask it to do anything
19:52on your computer and have it take
19:53screenshots as it's doing it and you can
19:55like kind of see how your agent uses
19:58your computer and it's basically like
20:00having an agent that can fully control
20:02your computer." And so that is one of
20:03the main reasons. I also use codecs a
20:05lot for business tasks. That's how I
20:08kind of split my usage between cloud
20:10code and codecs. Cloud code is creating
20:12assets for my content business slash
20:15when I want to learn anything like in
20:16the case of the the anthropic s1 I was
20:20just wanted to learn that's why I had it
20:21create slides and I do that for
20:23basically everything that I want to
20:24learn. So if I'm creating an asset, I
20:27will basically have Claude code do it
20:29because it is just really good at visual
20:32design and then also video editing. And
20:34codeex I use for my like personal
20:37assistant administrator and it keeps
20:39track of my calendar, my emails, all the
20:41messages in Slack. That's how I use
20:43codecs. And I generally just speak with
20:46Dot because Dot can spin up codec
20:48sessions. So in both of these cases,
20:50right, with dots and projects, I'm
20:52speaking directly to an orchestrator.
20:54And so Anthropic, what I think they're
20:56trying to do is they're actually
20:58releasing a new product called Claude
21:00Duet. Most people don't have access, but
21:02it is their version of dots and it is a
21:04standalone app. I prefer projects now
21:06because Claude Duet cannot spin off
21:09local sessions running on your computer
21:11and that is a non-negotiable for me. I
21:13must be able to do it for me to use that
21:15agent frequently. And so that is why I'm
21:18using these two apps as my orchestrator.
21:21And the final use case that I've been
21:23using for Codeex is email and Slack. I
21:26mentioned it before. I can't really show
21:28examples because all of the data is
21:30sensitive. The way I do all of my emails
21:32now, and I'm not kidding, like 90% of my
21:34emails is I pull out my phone in the
21:36morning, put in my AirPods, and go for a
21:38walk. and I just talk to the agent and
21:40be like, "Okay, you know, every morning
21:42there's probably it fil my AI is already
21:45set to filter out all of the emails that
21:47I don't need to see. It'll just
21:48autoarchchive them." And then there's
21:50probably like 20 25 emails that I need
21:52to hear and I just talk to my dot. I
21:54said, "In order of importance, please
21:56read me my emails." And then be and then
21:58my DOT will talk to me and be like,
21:59"This one's from this person and they
22:00said this." And then it'll read the
22:02email and I'll be like, "Okay, dot I I
22:03want you to respond with something like
22:05blah blah blah blah blah." And then
22:06it'll read it out to me and I'll be send
22:08it and then I'll do that on a walk. I
22:11love walking. I hate sitting in front of
22:13a computer and doing emails. I do all of
22:15my email and responding to Slack in
22:17little breaks in the day when I go for a
22:18walk. When I can go for a walk, I do. In
22:21fact, I can't wait to do it after this
22:22video and talk to the dot and I can
22:24actually get things done while walking
22:25around. It's amazing. Okay, so now what
22:27I want to talk about is a little bit
22:29different of a tool that sits at the
22:31center of all of my agent platforms. And
22:34this tool is what allows me for my
22:37agents to share skills and plugins. And
22:40by the way, this is not sponsored at
22:42all. It's just an incredibly useful
22:45tool. And that is Composeio. And so
22:48Compose allows me to centralize my
22:52skills and plugins. Many of you guys
22:55have seen this screen before in the chat
22:57GBT app. And there's an equivalent one
22:58in the Claude Code/Cloud app where you
23:01can install these plugins and they're
23:03really useful because plugins allows
23:05your agent to actually use all of these
23:07tools. In ClickUp, I store all my brand
23:09deals with my management company. In
23:11Convex, that's where I store all the
23:12data for all my apps. In Gmail, that's
23:15where I have all my email. I have my
23:17calendar. I have my superhuman email,
23:19which I actually use more than the Gmail
23:21one. I have my notion where I store a
23:23lot of useful things. Versell where I
23:25host the apps. Exa where I do it has a
23:28better web search than the ones that are
23:30built into these agent platforms and
23:32then a lot more. And it would be really
23:34annoying that if every time I wanted to
23:37test a new agent platform, I would have
23:39to resign in to all of these. Well, one
23:42plugin that you can add to all of your
23:44agents is the Composio plugin. And this
23:48is Composeio. Once you create your
23:49account, all you have to do is go to
23:52apps and you have literally every plugin
23:54you've ever created. Claude and GPT have
23:58no built-in YouTube plugin where you can
24:02plug it into your your actual YouTube
24:04account where it can change things on
24:06your YouTube. They have that on
24:08Composio. And so all you have to do is
24:11plug in your Composeio and then you get
24:12access to all 30 all 30 of these apps
24:16that I've added. And you can create your
24:18own custom tools like I did here with my
24:22native note tool, right? I have an
24:23internal tool and I created a native
24:26note app on Composeio and all I did is
24:30ask my agent to create it. Now all of
24:31the agents that I connect to will be
24:33able to use native note. It will have
24:35all of the instructions and it's really
24:37easy to use. And so remember with dot we
24:39were asking it to create both of these
24:42sessions right here. If we navigate to
24:45Composeio and we go to home and we
24:47scroll down, we can see that it was
24:50actually using the Composeio skills the
24:53whole time. The way that it uses Slack
24:55is through Composio. The way that it
24:57uses Gmail, it's not even using the ones
24:59baked into Codeex, it's using the ones
25:01on Composeio. And so I'm able to just
25:04give my agent the ability to use all of
25:07the plugins. And so that means let's say
25:09tomorrow Microsoft came out with the
25:11best agent platform and it was powered
25:13by their new model Microsoft Satia 4.0
25:17and this was insane and they had all
25:20these different plugins that you could
25:21add. All I would need to do is go to
25:23this new agent platform and plug in my
25:25Composeio and it would have access to
25:27all of my plugins. Additionally, they
25:29have instant and I'm telling you this
25:31feels sponsored. I promise you this is
25:33not sponsored. This is just genuinely
25:35useful. This is instant. And so what
25:38instant does is it basically takes all
25:40of these useful API keys that you might
25:42want access to like Tavi which is uh
25:45search exa which is search. It also has
25:48like 11 Labs FAL which has every popular
25:52video model for cheaper. It's much
25:54cheaper than Higsfield to use. You can
25:56just plug it into FAL and get all of the
25:59creative video models and image models.
26:01What it does is it basically sets this
26:02up to a single API. So it'll charge you
26:05for the amount that these APIs cost, but
26:07you don't actually have to go in and set
26:08up your API key. It just automatically
26:10connects to all of them. And so the way
26:12that I think of Composio, right, it's
26:14kind of an agent passport. It allows me
26:17to very easily switch from agent to
26:19agent platform because I've centralized
26:22all my skills and plugins. And by the
26:25way, you can also create skills. I think
26:27I only showed you the apps that I had
26:30built. So in Composeio you have your
26:32apps and then you also have skills and
26:35then I have mine at my email and here
26:36are 20 skills that I use quite
26:38frequently. I don't want to have to uh
26:40set up skills on Claude code and then
26:43tell Claude code to send the skills to
26:46codeex or send them to Grockbot. I just
26:48centralize them. All of my skills are in
26:50one place and all I need to do is
26:52connect the Composio integration and it
26:55has all of these skills. And the next
26:58one is actually one that is something
27:01I'm working on right now and I actually
27:03don't know how to solve the problem. And
27:04for anyone who's solved this problem, I
27:06would love for you to like let us know
27:08in the comments and that is memory. The
27:10same way I centralize my skills in
27:12plugins. I want to centralize my memory.
27:15Codeex, Claude Code, Grockbot, Muse,
27:18Claude Duet, all of these platforms keep
27:20a memory on you, but when you switch
27:23from platform to platform, the memory
27:25does not persist. And so I'm trying to
27:27figure out a workflow that is relatively
27:29simple that allows these agents to
27:31centralize my memory. I tried connecting
27:34super memory to Composio and that was
27:37okay. I just couldn't figure out how to
27:40get it to update its memory more
27:42frequently so I could very seamlessly
27:43switch from cla to codeex and it could
27:47just pick up with all of that context in
27:49mind. It would actually have memory of
27:51all the things that I'm doing. So, that
27:52one's more of an open question because
27:54this is the thing that I need to like
27:56complete my stack. I need to figure out
27:59memory. So, let me know in the comments.
28:01Okay. Finally, we need to talk about
28:03Grockbot. Now, I don't actually go to
28:05the Grockbot UI ever really. I mostly
28:08just use Dots and Cloud projects. That's
28:11how I interact with agents. But, I want
28:13to talk about two things. First of all,
28:15Grockbot has Twitter access. And if
28:17you're a content creator, it's
28:18incredibly useful to get an AI to scour
28:21Twitter to find links. Maybe you're
28:23looking for B-roll videos to put in your
28:25news content. It's really good for doing
28:27research and being upto-date, especially
28:29on tech news. This is where the smart
28:32people are talking about tech period on
28:34Twitter. And because you can connect
28:35Grockbot to Twitter and then they also
28:37have a feature called web hook, you can
28:40allow Claude code and codecs to send a
28:43request to Grockbot. Let me show you
28:46what I mean. So, if we go to Claude and
28:48this is a local Claude code session. I
28:50can type in Grockbot web hook. Hey, I
28:53need you to research Claude design, not
28:55Claude design, rather Claude Duet, their
28:57new platform. Can you please get
28:59Grockbot to do some research on this and
29:01create a little report based on this?
29:03And so what this is going to do is this
29:05is going to use a skill that I've
29:07configured called grockbot web hook
29:09which is connected to if we open up
29:12grockbot
29:14we can see here that it has a cloud code
29:17web hook skill. So when a web hook fires
29:20it will begin working and you can see
29:22here that it's automatically starting it
29:25is chipping away. It is doing research.
29:27It sent a request to Grockbot. So that
29:29means I don't need to use three
29:31different agent platforms. I can
29:33basically just interface with my
29:34favorite agent platforms which is codecs
29:36or dots and clawed with projects and
29:39they can send requests to Grockbot. I
29:41don't actually use the Grockbot UI. I
29:43just basically have my agents delegate
29:45to Grockbot because Grockbot has full
29:47access to Twitter. It's really useful.
29:49And this also connects to your account.
29:51So I could have asked Cloud Code to
29:53check my Twitter DMs and it would have
29:55just delegated that to Grockbot. Very
29:58useful. And there you have it. I am a
30:00content creator and I'm starting a
30:02company called agent native and these
30:04are all of the tools that I use. I use
30:06cloud code specifically projects to
30:08coordinate all of the assets that I need
30:10to create apps, designs, slides and
30:12video editing. I use codecs for its
30:14computer use. All business and
30:17coordination tasks which are just such a
30:20high percentage of my business is just
30:22coordinating with other people through
30:23email, Slack and otherwise. and Codeex
30:27can access my text messages as well,
30:28which is really useful. That means I can
30:30access my messages through voice with
30:32dots. And that's kind of the main
30:35breakdown. And then obviously plug this
30:37into all of the other tools that I use.
30:39And the way that I centralize that is
30:41through Composio. And then Twitter is
30:43such a large part of my business,
30:44whether that's doing research or posting
30:46on Twitter. It's one of the main
30:47accounts. I connect it to Grockbot
30:49because it has full access to my Twitter
30:51account and doing research on Twitter.
30:53So, this is like 90 plus% of the things
30:56that I do with my agent stack. And as
30:59this evolves, I'll probably remake this
31:01video once every two months because
31:03it'll probably be different in 2 months
31:05because the agent platforms will evolve.
31:07Meta might release a new model. Google
31:09might release a really good agent
31:10platform. It's really, really cool. And
31:13who knows, someone might release a
31:14better Composio competitor. And so,
31:16anyway, thank you guys so much for
31:18watching this video. I hope you guys got
31:21a lot of value. If there's something
31:22that you want me to create or a video
31:24you want to see soon, let me know in the
31:26comments.
