Why this helps
A review process loses momentum when its Slack entry point is hard to locate.
- Make the review entry point easier to revisit.
- Keep a lightweight signal tied to new queue activity.
- Reduce searching through older Slack conversations.

- 3Use one plain-language instruction to identify the Slack item to star.
- 4Select the new item in YouTube playlist trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with a real playlist addition and make sure the correct item is starred.
