Automated CapCut Project Status Sync
Every morning, WebRun signs in to CapCut, reads the project list with each project's name, last edited date and duration, matches every project to its row in the Airtable content calendar, updates the status and last touched date there, adds rows for projects the calendar has never seen, and posts to Telegram a short list of edits that have not been touched in longer than your window.
How do I keep my content calendar in sync with the videos actually being edited?
WebRun reads your CapCut project list every morning and matches each project to its row in the Airtable content calendar, updating status, duration, and last touched date. It then posts a Telegram list of drafts untouched beyond your window and calendar rows due this week with no edit started at all.
- The calendar matches reality every morning without manual updates
- Drafts going stale are named with their age in days
- Deadlines with no edit started are caught the same week

How is each run configured?
Secure by default
Connect once, stays signed in
WebRun signs in once and keeps each session in a persistent environment, so every run picks up right where it left off.
Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it edit, export, or publish my videos?
No. WebRun reads the CapCut project list only. It never opens an editor, never exports, never publishes to a social account, and never deletes a project.
What does it write into Airtable?
Only status fields: current status, last touched date, and duration, plus a new row for a project the calendar has never seen. Publish dates, briefs and notes written by your team are never overwritten.
How stale is stale?
You set the window, five days by default. Anything untouched longer than that appears in the Telegram list, oldest first, along with any calendar row due this week that has no edit started.
