YouTube Agent Skill: 11 free Claude skills for your channel
Each skill has one job: hooks, title and thumbnail, an edit list, comments, a weekly plan and viral research. It writes the plan. You still film, edit and upload.

What you need first
Step by step
Open the official GitHub page
Go to github.com/Jakeschincariol/youtube-agent-skill. The README there is the full manual.
Install it by pasting the link into Claude Code
Open Claude Code and paste this. Claude installs the skills and checks that one works.
Install this skill, then confirm /yt-script works: https://github.com/Jakeschincariol/youtube-agent-skill
Tip: Prefer plugins? Add it as a plugin marketplace with /plugin marketplace add Jakeschincariol/youtube-agent-skill, then install it from there.
Write your hooks: /yt-script
Give it your video idea. It writes 5 hooks using 21 hook formulas and gives each one a score.
Check your title and thumbnail together: /yt-package
It checks the title and thumbnail as one pair. For example, it can flag a thumbnail that just repeats the title.
Plan, edit and reply
/yt-plan plans a week that fits your hours: one main video, one quick one and three Shorts.
/yt-edit turns your transcript into an edit list with timecodes, so you know what to cut.
/yt-comment sorts comments into questions, corrections, praise and bait, and drafts replies for you to check.
Tip: The other skills: /yt-shorts, /yt-chapters, /yt-retention, /yt-seo and /yt-audit.
Find ideas that already work: /yt-viral
It ranks videos in your niche by how far they beat their own channel's usual views (the median). Use them for ideas, then make your own version.

The catch
- It doesn't post anything. It doesn't connect to YouTube. In the README's words: "These skills write. You upload."
- /yt-edit makes a list, not a cut. You still cut the video yourself.
- The hook score is a rule of thumb, not a promise. A high score doesn't guarantee views.
- /yt-viral is for ideas. Learn from what works, then make it your own.
- Claude Code isn't in the free Claude plan. It needs a paid plan such as Pro.
