Cross-post short-form video to YouTube Shorts
YouTube Shorts is its own discovery surface, with its own recommendation engine and caption conventions. The agent takes your TikTok or Reels cut, re-encodes it for the Shorts aspect and title-card style, rewrites the description and hashtags for YouTube's hook pattern, and posts it natively from the iPhone. No watermark, no third-party scheduler, no detection signatures.

Scenario FAQ
Common questions about this scenario.
Does YouTube penalise cross-posted Shorts?
YouTube detects watermarked uploads, like a TikTok-stamped export. The agent strips watermarks and re-encodes natively before uploading through the YouTube iOS app. We do not promise zero penalty. We cut the substrate-level signals YouTube uses to spot cross-platform reuploads.
Can I post originals only, not cross-posts?
Yes. Drop original short-form content into the agent and it posts straight to Shorts. Same iPhone, same scheduling logic.
