{"id":"TL6FQsCuDY4","title":"The AI Agent That Asks Before It Acts","description":"Here's a second IronClaw tip, and this one is fun. I set up a routine that pulls every Massachusetts pro sports score every morning, along with the outcomes and any related news like trades.\n\nWhat I want you to watch is the review step. IronClaw drafts the automation and hands it back for approval before anything runs. It even asked me whether I wanted minor league teams included rather than guessing. I said no, told it 9am Eastern, added the news summary, and it rebuilt the routine around that. The human in the loop stays in the loop.\n\nYou can also see the agent's thought process as it works, including every tool call it makes to assemble the plan. Some of these take several passes, and watching that happen tells you a lot about whether the thing actually understood you.\n\nThe automation fires wherever you want it. I used the web interface here, but connect Telegram or Slack and it lands there instead, which is what you want when you're checking your phone over coffee.\n\nOnce you connect other services and APIs, the same pattern builds any routine you want, hourly, daily, whatever fits.\n\nIronClaw is free to get started: https://www.ironclaw.com/\nDocs: https://docs.ironclaw.com/\n\nMore IronClaw walkthroughs coming. Subscribe if you want the rest of the series.\n\n#IronClaw #AIAgents #Automation #NEARAI #ProductivityTools","channel_name":"NEAR DevHub","published_at":"2026-08-04T00:00:00.000Z","thumbnail_url":"https://img.youtube.com/vi/TL6FQsCuDY4/hqdefault.jpg","transcript_text":"All right. So, here's another tip on how you can use ironclaw for your everyday type of stuff. And I'm going to actually do a fun one today. And I'm going to set up a routine so I can get all my local sports scores, but not just the sports scores, like all the other information that I want as well. Okay. So, I'm just going to start off by asking it to set up initial routine. Nice thing about ironclaw is that you can start to see the actual thought process that it's going through and get a sense of what it's actually doing in the background. So sometimes these things will take multiple tool calls or multiple different processes to get something done. And so right now we can watch it actually go through and put together a game plan of what I asked for this initial routine. And then we will follow up with some questions uh as well to make sure that it actually doing what we want it to do. So after it runs, you start to have some different things that it walks you through of what it's actually trying to put together of your routine. It's saying daily trigger every morning. It's finding all the major Massachusetts pro sports teams. That's what I asked for. Uh and then it puts together a nice little thing that I can review. This is a really strong point of iron claws being able to give you information that you can review yourself, not just uh you know, doing something and just doing an action. Here it is. because now even asked me questions. Do I want to add on some minor league teams? I do not. Uh for each thing, it will give some status stuff like that. It tells me how it's going to do and when. It's now asking me to reply with my preferences. And I'll say I want Eastern, but I also want a short summary of the outcomes and any related news like trades. All right. So, I have that. It's going to work through that and put together my routine. So, as it's processed that request that I made back to it, uh you can see there's some tools that ran to actually put this all together. It's giving me a full recap. So, again, I can review that human in the loop piece is still there to review, make sure that it's doing what I want. It gave me a couple things that I should be aware of. Uh just so I'm okay with that. And it wants me to know if anything should be tweaked, stuff like that. I can then go check my automations and I can see I have one scheduled. If I go down, there it is. Massachusetts daily sports recap and I'm off and running. It's so simple to set these up. Uh you can see here that they're really powerful being able to review and make sure that it's exactly what you're looking for in your stuff. As you connect other services and other APIs to your ironclaw, you can set up any kind of routine and automation that you want. And whether it runs daily, hourly, whatever it might be, you can get going right away. Again, Ironclaw is free to get started. So check it out today.","transcript_synced_at":"2026-11-03T03:47:53.022Z","segments":[{"start_seconds":4,"text":"All right.
