Here's a Python code snippet to create an optimized YouTube description using Selenium WebDriver:


```python

from selenium import webdriver


def create_optimized_youtube_description():

    # Initialize Chrome WebDriver

    driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path="/path/to/chromedriver")


    try:

        # Open YouTube and navigate to the video upload page

        driver.get("https://www.youtube.com/upload")

        

        # Locate the description box

        description_box = driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@id="textbox"]')

        

        # Your optimized description

        optimized_description = """

        Your optimized YouTube description goes here. 

        This can include relevant keywords, links, timestamps, 

        and any other information that can improve SEO and user engagement.

        """

        

        # Enter the optimized description into the description box

        description_box.send_keys(optimized_description)

        

        # You can also add additional steps here, such as uploading the video, adding tags, etc.

        

    finally:

        # Close the WebDriver session

        driver.quit()


# Call the function to create the optimized YouTube description

create_optimized_youtube_description()

```


Make sure to replace `"/path/to/chromedriver"` with the actual path to the ChromeDriver executable on your system. This script will open a Chrome browser window, navigate to the YouTube upload page, and enter the optimized description into the description box. You can customize the `optimized_description` variable with your desired content.
