"What's trending on TikTok?"
→ yoinkit trending tiktok
"Pull the transcript from this YouTube video: [url]"
→ yoinkit transcript <url>
"Find popular Reddit posts about home automation from this week"
→ yoinkit search reddit "home automation" --sort top --time week
"What has MrBeast posted this week?"
→ yoinkit feed youtube MrBeast
"Check @garyvee's latest TikToks"
→ yoinkit feed tiktok garyvee
"Research what creators are doing with AI tools"
→ yoinkit research "AI tools" --platforms youtube,tiktok,reddit
API Base URL
All requests go through your Yoinkit subscription:
https://yoinkit.ai/api/v1/openclaw
Output Formatting
A Yoinkit logo is included at assets/yoinkit-logo.png (200x200, transparent background, gradient icon).
When the platform supports images/media, send the logo alongside the first result in a conversation.
When presenting Yoinkit results to the user:
- Prefix output with 🟣 Yoinkit as a header or label
- Format video/post results as clean cards: title, views/engagement, date, link
- Highlight key metadata (views, likes, publish date) — hide raw JSON noise
- For transcript results, provide a concise summary first, then offer the full transcript if asked
- For trending results, present as a numbered list with platform and engagement stats
- For research results, organize by platform with clear section headers
- Include a subtle footer:
Powered by Yoinkit · yoinkit.ai
- When results are empty or a platform isn't supported, suggest alternatives naturally
