I turned my entire YouTube channel into one knowledge base you can drop straight into your second brain. The best part is this strategy works for literally any YouTube channel! Everything is turned into plain markdown, so it can go right into Obsidian just like a Karpathy LLM wiki. On top of that, it uses Google OKF (the new LLM wiki standard) so your agent can learn how to leverage the knowledge base immediately.

In this video I show you how I built it, how the canonicalization step collapses dozens of videos into one clean page per idea, and how to pull the whole thing into your own second brain with a single prompt. I also give you three Claude Code skills so you can build one of these for any channel you follow. It’s never been easier to keep up with all your favorite YouTube channels.
