What it does
In the author's own words, from each skill's SKILL.md.
-
yt-audit

yt-chapters
Write YouTube chapters from a transcript, validated against YouTube's own rules so they actually render. Use for "add chapters", "timestamps", "break this video into sections".
skills/yt-chapters/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
yt-comment
Draft replies to YouTube comments in the creator's voice, triaged by which ones are worth answering. Use for "reply to my comments", "handle the comment section", "someone asked X", or a pasted comment thread.

yt-edit
Turn a raw recording's transcript into an edit decision list - dead air, filler cues and retakes, with timecodes. Use for "edit this", "cut the dead space", "tighten this video", "I rambled", or any request to shorten footage from a transcript.

yt-package
Write and lint the title and thumbnail for a YouTube video as one pairing, checking truncation, duplication and vagueness before publish. Use for "title ideas", "what should I call this", "thumbnail text", "my CTR is bad", packaging, or any request to rename or repackage an existing video.
skills/yt-package/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
yt-plan
Plan a week or a month of YouTube uploads - what to post, when, and in what order, sized to the creator's actual capacity. Use for "plan my week", "content calendar", "what should I post", "I have no idea what to make next".

yt-script
Write a YouTube video script from a raw idea - hook options off 21 formulas, scored, then the full spoken script with the retention beats marked. Use whenever the user wants a video script, a hook, an opening line, "what should I say", "write my next video", or is about to record and does not have the first fifteen seconds yet.

yt-viral
Find what is actually working in the user's niche on YouTube and rank it by how far each video beat its own channel, then name the formula. Use for "what's working right now", "find viral videos in my niche", "why did this blow up", competitor research, or a swipe file.

Review before you install
A skill is a set of instructions and scripts your agent will follow, and it can run code on your machine. Read the SKILL.md and any scripts first — this listing is not a security review.
