Video Description Skill
Generate YouTube video description, tags, and metadata. No script — write the description by reading the transcript and reasoning about the content.
Output
<project_root>/claude-edits/
<video_stem>_description.md # YouTube description + metadata
How to Generate
- Read the transcript and understand what the video is about
- Write:
- Title suggestions (3 options, under 70 chars, specific and compelling)
- Summary (2-3 sentences, written fresh — not copy-pasted from transcript)
- Chapters (from
_chapters.txt if available)
- Resources/links mentioned in the video (with actual URLs)
- Tags (relevant keywords for YouTube search, 15-25 tags)
- CTA (newsletter, subscribe link, etc.)
What Makes Good YouTube Descriptions
- Summary: Write it like a tweet — concise, clear, tells the viewer what they'll learn. Don't dump raw transcript sentences.
- Title suggestions: Specific > generic. "My Workflow with Just, UV Scripts, and AI Agents" > "Understanding Tools"
- Tags: Mix of broad ("developer workflow", "productivity") and specific ("just command runner", "uv scripts python")
- Links: Include actual URLs for tools/resources mentioned. Verify they exist.
