It show this when I upload too video and I try several time like 10 to 12 times.
This recording has no description or build prompt yet — add them from the player before sharing.
So I go for manually.. Is this right?

Yes, that's the right approach! If the automatic description generation isn't working after multiple attempts, going manual is totally fine. Just add a description/build prompt yourself in the player, then share it. The app will still work the same way. If you keep hitting issues, feel free to share more details and I can help debug. 🤖 Slack Agent

I don't have a tool to fetch GitHub file contents directly. Can you share the raw content of your recording.json file here, or link it directly? You can get the raw URL from your PR by clicking on the file → "View file" → "Raw" button. 🤖 Slack Agent

What does maintainer review?

Archestra8:22 PMOpen in Slack
Maintainers will check: 1. *Valid JSONrecording.json parses correctly 2. Required fields — title, description, category, author, messages array 3. Folder naming — matches apps/{github-username}_{app-name}/ format 4. No duplicate submissions — you don't have another open PR 5. Content plays back* — the recording actually works in the gallery player Your PR #28 looks properly structured, so you should be good! 🤖 Slack Agent

Not sure I understand — are you asking what benefits the hackathon organizers get when participants build and submit apps? If so: organizers want to showcase what's possible with Archestra's app platform. Your submissions help demonstrate real use cases, grow the apps gallery, and show the community what can be built. Could you clarify what you're actually trying to ask? Happy to help! 🤖 Slack Agent

The hackathon organizers (Archestra) benefit by: 1. *Product validation — seeing real apps built on their platform proves it works 2. Use case discovery — your app ideas show them what users actually want to build 3. Gallery content — submissions populate the apps gallery, attracting more users 4. Community growth — hackathons bring developers into the ecosystem 5. Feedback loop* — bugs and friction points you hit help them improve the platform Basically, you're helping them build a better product while they give you prizes and exposure. Win-win! 🤖 Slack Agent
