Generate complete YouTube & podcast SEO packages with live-researched keywords — titles, descriptions, tags, hashtags, chapters, and audit fixes. Use for new or underperforming content.
Optimize pull requests for quick approval and merging by ensuring clean diffs, comprehensive self-reviews, and structured documentation.
Frontend design entry point: direction, design system, visual philosophy. Use whenever building or touching the look of any web UI (components, pages, dashboards, React/Vue/HTML-CSS) or when the user says "make this look better", "fix the spacing/layout", or mentions styling, color, type, or polish.
Render the UI and prove it's balanced + usable: a deterministic layout audit (centroid / optical-center / pixel-oracle balance via explicit math + annotated screenshot) plus a vision-judged Nielsen usability audit by a separate fresh-eyes judge. The measurement layer taste-only design skills lack.
Automated visual tuning: a vision or video model rates rendered variants in a loop. Render several labeled variants into one artifact, ask the model to rate them and suggest better values, render the suggestions, ask it to pick the best, repeat until good — the model is the eye, you run the loop.
Human-in-the-loop web studio to tune AI-generated output by eye. Stand up a local interactive studio (sliders, pickers, drag handles) or an inline edit/highlight/comment annotation studio for prose & media, instead of guessing values or shipping a static comparison grid.
macOS screen recorder that captures the main display PLUS system audio via ScreenCaptureKit — no BlackHole/loopback driver, no sudo, just the standard Screen Recording permission. CLI-driven; fills the headless-screen-recording-with-system-sound gap QuickTime and `screencapture -v` can't.

You need web search + URL fetch for this to work. Whatever your host calls them — web_search/web_fetch, WebSearch/WebFetch, an MCP tool — use those.
This skill covers 6 scenarios: 3 content types (video, podcast, short-form) × 2 states (new or underperforming). Each has its own mode below.
Two rules:
The sections below are organized as: Steps → Rules → Templates → Checks. Follow them in order:
Scope check first. This skill handles one video, podcast episode, or short-form clip at a time — not entire channels or playlists. If the user asks for something outside that, say: "I can optimize individual videos or episodes. Which one should I start with?" Once they pick one, restart the flow from Step 0 with that specific item.
Then classify. Read the user's message first — they might have already told you everything. Don't ask something they just said.
Content type — If unclear from what they said, ask once: "Is this a regular video, a podcast episode, or a Short/Reel?"
Status — Did they give a URL? Fetch it. Did they say "no views" or "not ranking"? It's existing. Did they say "uploading" or "about to post"? It's new. If you can't tell, ask once.
| Content type | New | Existing |
|---|---|---|
| Standalone video | Mode A | Mode B |
| Podcast episode | Mode C | Mode D |
| Short-form clip / Reel | Mode E | Mode F |
If they gave a URL, fetch the live metadata — don't ask them to repeat what's already there.
Check if they already named one. If not, extract it from their topic/outline and propose it. Only ask if you genuinely can't infer it.
If the user asked for just a title or just tags, skip the full research batch — but still do one quick search to validate the keyword angle. Otherwise run the full research:
[target keyword] — see what's ranking[target keyword] [current year][niche/topic] trending or [target keyword] reddit — real phrasing people usePull 3-6 related phrases as secondary/long-tail keywords.
No data you don't have: never make up search volume, view counts, or algorithm claims. A thin result set is fine — lower competition.
Use today's real date for every "[Year]" slot.
Verify superlatives. If they say "top 10," "#1," "fastest-growing" — search for proof. If unverified, drop it or mark [VERIFY: ...].
Before writing the Resources/CTA block, check what info the user already gave or that you can scrape from their URL/name/channel. For anything still unknown, look it up. Ask the user only if you hit a dead end:
One question at a time. After each answer, see if you can fill the rest from what you learned. If they say "placeholders," use [ADD: ...] markers — never fake URLs.
Use these rules for every mode that includes a title (A-F).
[Primary Keyword] : [Outcome or Benefit] + [Power Word / Number / Year]
How · Why · What · Best · Full · Real · Free · New · Step-by-Step · Complete · Proven · Ultimate · Inside · Secret · Zero to · In [X] Days · [Number] Ways · [Year]
| Type | Pattern | Example |
|---|---|---|
| How-to | How to [Result] in [Time/Steps] | How to Rank #1 on YouTube in 30 Days |
| List | [N] [Things] Every [Audience] Needs | 7 SEO Tools Every Creator Needs in [Year] |

| Podcast | [Guest] on [Topic]: [Outcome] | [Show] #[Ep] | Sara Lin on Cold Outreach That Works | Growth Lab #42 |
Use for long-form modes (A-D) that include tags. Generate 14-19 tags using this mix. For short-form (E-F), see the Shorts section for the 5-8 tag rule.
| Type | Count | Rule |
|---|---|---|
| Exact match primary keyword | 1 | Must match Step 1 target keyword exactly |
| Broad topic | 3-4 | 1-2 word umbrella terms |
| Long-tail (3-5 words) | 5-6 | Pulled from Step 1 research |
| Question-based | 2 | "how to [topic]", "what is [topic]" |
| Branded / show name | 1-2 | Channel/podcast/website name |
| Year-tagged | 1-2 | Only if Step 1 research shows it's common |
| Geo-tagged | 1-2 | Always include for location-specific content |
Rules:
Use for every mode that includes hashtags (A-F).
#AgritechNepal)Use for every mode that includes a description (A-F).
Total length: 700-900 words (video), 800-1,000 (podcast). Shorts: 150-200 words.
[Hook — target keyword in sentence 1. Core promise. Who this is for.]
In this video/episode you'll learn:

Use for modes A-D. Hard cap: 6-10 markers. Merge adjacent topics if you have more.
0:00 — YouTube ignores all chapters without itDo this when the content is tied to a place:
[topic] [city], [topic] [country]Use when the user asks for a Short cut from a specific video they mentioned.
If they ask for a Short without mentioning a source video, ask: "Which video should I pull the Short from?" — once they tell you, treat the Short as the primary request and use Mode E directly (no need to also package the source video).
If they ask for both a main video SEO package + a Short cut from it, produce the main mode first, then append this as a separate block.
#Shorts, placed in descriptionOutput this as a separate block after the main package if they ask for it.
If only a topic is given, extract the keyword, research it. When sections of the Mode template lack input (chapters, thumbnail, playlist, etc.), use reasonable defaults based on the topic — don't leave them blank or ask for every detail. Ask one question at a time, and only if you genuinely can't infer or look up the answer.

Then run the Quality Checklist below.
[VERIFY: ...][ADD: ...] markers)| Mistake | Correct approach |
|---|---|
| Generating tags/keywords from memory | Run Step 1 research batch first |
| Inventing search-volume or view-count numbers | Never state unverified numbers; use directional language |
| Hardcoding a year from training data | Use today's actual date |
| Description full of placeholders | Run Step 2 for real links first |
| Title is 71+ characters | Count exactly; cut filler |
| Description under 400 words | Must hit 700-1,000 words |
| Hashtags in tags field | Tags = keywords; hashtags in description only |
| All tags are one-phrase variants | Use all 7 tag types |
| 0:00 chapter missing | YouTube ignores all chapters without it |
| Geo skipped for local content | Always include for location-specific content |
| A/B title is just reworded | Must test a genuinely different hook |
| Pinned comment is "Check out my video!" | Include keyword + value teaser |
| Podcast title omits searchable guest name | Lead with guest name if people search for it |
| More than 10 chapter markers | Merge adjacent topics |
| Unverified superlative stated as fact | Verify or mark [VERIFY: ...] |
| Assuming a specific tool name for search/fetch | Use whatever your host calls these |
Video, new upload: User says "uploading a video about how farmers in Nepal can use mobile apps to sell vegetables directly." → Confirm target keyword ("sell vegetables online Nepal"), run Step 1, produce Mode A package — title, A/B variant, 800-word description with geo signals, 18 tags, 7 hashtags, 8 chapters, thumbnail text, cards, playlist note, pinned comment, end-screen script.
Podcast, existing episode, underperforming: User says "My episode with [guest] has barely any views, here's the URL." → Fetch URL, confirm target keyword, produce Mode D audit — scorecard, detailed findings, rewritten metadata, action plan.
Short-form, new clip from a podcast: User says "Cut a Short from the Antigravity Awesome Skills part of that episode." → Mode E: reuse episode's keyword and tags, 60-70 char title, 150-200 word description, 3-5 hashtags including #Shorts, cross-post caption.
