DementedJay reports feeding YouTube transcripts through Hermes into Markdown and DocMost, then receiving a morning topic digest that connects ideas across the collected material.
Reported by u/DementedJay on RedditHow the agent did it
- Select videos to capture through the RabbitHole application.
- Transcribe and have Hermes summarise them into Markdown.
- Insert the notes into DocMost with the configured retrieval setup.
Where a person stepped in
The author chooses the material and judges the reported connections. No independent originality test, verified financial result or detailed fact-checking procedure is supplied.
DementedJay uses an application called RabbitHole to capture YouTube material for a personal knowledge repository. The firsthand comment describes transcription, Hermes summaries, Markdown document creation and insertion into DocMost. The linked public repository confirms that structured notes can be saved on disk and optionally synced into that repository.
DocMost is also configured with a vector table and an MCP server for Hermes. Each morning, the author receives a digest of previously supplied topics, including connections between AI and investing videos. This is a retrieval-and-synthesis job over an accumulating personal corpus, rather than a fresh generic news briefing.
The author says some connections articulate thoughts already present while others feel new. That assessment is subjective: the account does not publish a measured originality test or demonstrate that the connections are correct. A separate investment-thesis tool is mentioned as a later development, but this case does not claim successful trades or financial returns.
The useful architecture keeps captured notes as durable Markdown and repository entries before a later agent queries across them. Humans choose the incoming videos and assess the digest’s connections. The public account does not expose the complete morning prompt, a specific delivered digest or a detailed verification procedure, so those are not invented. The demonstrated outcome is a recurring knowledge digest reported by its operator, with linked implementation context.

Where are the captured notes kept?
The comment names Markdown and DocMost; the linked repository documents disk notes and optional DocMost syncing.
What does the morning output add?
It summarises supplied topics and connects ideas across different AI and investing videos, according to the operator.
Does this demonstrate successful investing?
No. A later thesis-testing project is mentioned, but the digest case establishes no trades, returns or validated investment advice.
