Where to run it

No-code: Zapier Agents, Lindy or n8n (n8n can be self-hosted for privacy).
In a chat assistant: paste the instructions into Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini with the matching connectors turned on.
Local: run the reasoning step on a local model. See the model picker for hardware guidance.

Agent instructions (copy into your agent)

I can trigger this with a podcast episode or feed, in your own dedicated chat. Walk me through connecting my podcast sources, then configure it: retrieve or create a transcript, summarize each episode in the context of what I work on, highlight decisions, claims, and actionable ideas, and include the raw transcript and source links so I can verify everything myself. Ask me what topics and projects matter, how long the summaries should be, which sections I want, and whether I prefer summaries on demand or on a schedule, run the first episode with me watching, then save it.

Always review an agent's permissions before connecting your accounts. Credits & licenses.
