    Try out the below code:

    For the variable, you don’t need to use '' for that.

    $metadescription = wp_trim_words( get_the_content(), 55, '');

add_post_meta($post_id, 'meta_description', $metadescription , true);

    First, make sure that get_the_content is returning the content you want and $meta_description isn’t null.

    Try This:

    add_post_meta($post_id, 'meta_description', '' . $meta_description . '', true);

    I found the best option, please try this.

    global $post;
$metadescription = wp_trim_words( apply_filters('the_content', $post->post_content), 55, '');
add_post_meta($post_id, 'meta_description',$metadescription, true);
