Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

youtube-content scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 11d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 210 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

YouTube Content Planning

Workspace Context

Read bootstrap context before asking questions: strategy/brand.md for brand, audience, offer, channels, tools, constraints, and metrics; about/me.md for personal voice; content/ideas.md and content/calendar.md for content planning. Use legacy product-marketing context files only as fallback. Save generated drafts to content/<platform>/drafts/YYYY-MM-DD_short-topic-slug.md, and route durable learnings back to strategy/brand.md, about/me.md, or content/ideas.md.

Operating Contract

This skill is self-contained for its frontmatter scope: use its local instructions, references, scripts, and assets as the playbook; ask only for missing task-specific inputs; hand off to adjacent skills instead of expanding scope; and return an actionable artifact, decision, plan, draft, or diagnostic.

Two modes in one skill:

  1. Hook Creation — Design or review the opening 5–30 seconds for maximum retention
  2. Video Planning — Orchestrate title, thumbnail, and hook into a complete production-ready plan

When to Use

  • Planning a new YouTube video (title, thumbnail, hook, outline)
  • Writing or reviewing an opening hook for retention
  • Generating multiple title/thumbnail options for a user to choose from
  • Creating a complete video plan after research is done

Mode 1: Hook Creation

The opening seconds are the highest-leverage part of any YouTube video. Design them with precision.

Core Principle

The opening MUST extend the curiosity from the title/thumbnail — never repeat it.

The viewer already clicked based on the promise. The opening must add new intrigue and make them MORE interested, not restate what they know.

Forbidden Patterns (Instant Failure)

These cause immediate abandonment and must never appear before the hook:

1. Repeating the title

  • ❌ Title: "5 Photography Mistakes" → Opening: "Today I'm showing you 5 photography mistakes"
  • Why: The viewer already has this info. Repetition drains attention.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
