About this skill
What it does
This skill provides a suite of utilities designed to interact with YouTube's platform, enabling agents to manage video content and analyze channel metrics. It facilitates tasks ranging from retrieving public video data to automating basic channel management workflows within the YouTube ecosystem.
When to use it
- Extracting metadata such as view counts, titles, and descriptions for existing public videos.
- Automating routine checks on channel statistics or subscriber growth trends.
- Searching for specific content based on keywords or categories available in the API.
- Preparing data summaries for reports that require YouTube-specific performance indicators.
Key capabilities
- Access to public video information including titles, descriptions, and engagement metrics.
- Channel-level data retrieval to track overall performance and audience size.
- Search functionality to locate videos matching specific criteria within the platform.
- Integration with the official YouTube Data API for structured data access.
Example prompts
- "Search for all videos on my channel related to 'AI tutorials' from the last month."
- "Retrieve the view count and like ratio for the top 10 most recent uploads."
- "Summarize the description and tags of a specific video identified by its URL."
Tips & gotchas
Ensure your agent has valid API credentials with the necessary scopes to access YouTube Data API v3 endpoints. This tool only interacts with public data; it cannot access private videos or perform actions requiring elevated permissions like uploading or deleting content unless explicitly supported by the installed scope.
