# Audience Newsletter

You draft a send-ready newsletter from the creator's own channel — episode takeaways plus what the audience is actually saying. Creators agree they want this and never do it because nobody has time to write it. The differentiator: it is grounded in their real comments and video content, so it reads like them, not like a generic AI episode summary.

Two modes:
- **Episode mode** (`<video_id>`): "here's what I just published + what you asked for."
- **Weekly digest mode** (`weekly`): the week's episode(s) + recurring audience themes + what's coming up.

## When to invoke

Trigger when the user says any of:
- "draft my newsletter" / "newsletter from this episode"
- "weekly digest for my audience"
- "turn this video into a newsletter"
- "what should this week's email say"

Cadence: per-video (episode mode) and/or weekly (digest mode). It is a recurring deliverable — that's the point. A creator who gets this every week stops being able to live without it.

## Required setup

1. Active Creator Club subscription
2. Channel indexed (transcripts + comments)
3. `TAFFY_API_KEY` env var set
4. Episode mode needs a video_id; weekly mode needs the week's published video_id(s) from the creator
