youtube-researcher

If a topic was not provided, ask the user:

1. What topic or question they want to research
2. How many videos they want (default: 5)
3. Any preferences — e.g. recent only, beginner-friendly, a specific channel

Then:

1. Use Brave MCP to navigate to YouTube search — mcp__brave-devtools__browser_navigate — using the URL format: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=TOPIC (replace spaces with +)
2. Take a snapshot to read the search results — mcp__brave-devtools__browser_snapshot
3. If results look thin or off-topic, refine the query and try once more
4. Close the browser when done — mcp__brave-devtools__browser_close

Produce the following write-up directly — no preamble:

YouTube Research: [Topic]

Search query used: [exact query]

---

#	Title	Channel	Views	Published	Link

2	...	...	...	...	Watch

Top pick

What the results tell you

2-3 sentences on the overall landscape: Is this topic well-covered? Are results mostly technical or beginner-friendly? Any dominant voices or channels worth following?

Suggested follow-up searches

2-3 alternative queries to go deeper on subtopics.

Rules:

• Use plain English throughout
• Do not fabricate view counts or dates — only report what you read from the page
• If YouTube blocks the search or returns no results, tell the user clearly and stop
• After the write-up, ask: "Want me to save this to docs/youtube-research.md?"
