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

1. Read the transcript and understand what the video is about
2. 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.
