Welcome to Creator Magic

Creator Magic is where I build with AI agents I own, on hardware I already have. What this site is, what goes on it, and where to start.

Creator Magic is my place to build with AI agents I own, on hardware I already have.

Not a chatbot in a tab. Always on agents that edit video, run live streams, answer a community and ship code, running on machines I control.

This site goes live today, 16 October 2026. Here is what it is for.

How it fits together

  • YouTube is where I show the builds end to end, on the Creator Magic channel.
  • This site is where each build gets written down. From today, every long form video gets a companion post here with the prompts and files, so you can copy what you saw instead of pausing the video. Shorts do not get posts.
  • The community is where the source and the help live. If you want the project files and people to build alongside, that is the community.

This is not a course. A course would be stale next month. It is the keys to the workshop.

What I build

Four things, mostly. If a post is not about one of these, it probably does not belong here.

Always on agents with OpenClaw and Buzz

Agents that stay awake when my laptop is shut, and the rooms where humans and agents work together.

Claude Code builds, including ESP32

Real projects built with Claude Code, from software to ESP32 boards. The prompts go in the post so you can run the same build.

AI trading agents

Agents that watch markets and act on what they see.

AI voice and video

AI that voices, edits and cuts video.

Where to start

The first companion post is up today: how I built an AI sponsor finder with Gemini 4 Argon and Zapier. One prompt, a real Zap and a table of brands paying YouTubers, with the exact prompt to copy.

Since then I’ve added how Gemini 4 Argon wrote my ESP32-S31 firmware for the ESP-Mosaico, a board that wasn’t even out yet.

New posts land as the videos do. If you want the files first, come and join us in the community.
