A YouTube-style site of videos Hacker News commenters recommend, from one prompt

From the community · not tested by us

With one main prompt, Claude Code scanned Hacker News comments for YouTube links, kept 317 videos people actually recommended (out of a 3,000 sample), and built a plain HTML/JS site with topic filters, search and a quote per card in about 28 minutes. The poster spot-checked 45 cards and lists what the filter got wrong.
