Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00118 | $0.01333 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00059 | $0.00666 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00024 | $0.00267 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00133 |
Grade A, and why
youtube-own-channel-analyzer 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 12d 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 — 157 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
YouTube Own Channel Analyzer
Analyze your YouTube channel's performance using the YouTube Data API v3.
Usage
/youtube-own-channel-analyzer @MyChannel
/youtube-own-channel-analyzer https://youtube.com/@MyChannel
/youtube-own-channel-analyzer UCxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx --max-videos 300
Instructions
Step 1: Parse Arguments
- Channel (required):
@handle, channel URL, or channel ID (UC...) - --max-videos N (optional): how many recent uploads to analyze (default: 200,
0= all)
Step 2: Get the API Key
Get a key from Google Cloud Console with YouTube Data API v3 enabled. Check Claude memory first; if not found, ask the user to paste it.
Step 3: Run the Bundled Script
Run scripts/analyze_channel.py — resolve the path relative to this skill's own directory:
YT_API_KEY=API_KEY python3 <skill-dir>/scripts/analyze_channel.py "@CHANNEL" [--max-videos N]
Dependency: pip3 install google-api-python-client.
Step 4: Read the Data
reports/data/channel-analysis-<channel-slug>-<YYYY-MM-DD>.json
Step 5: Write the Report
Write to the path the script printed: reports/channel-analysis-<channel-slug>-<YYYY-MM-DD>.md
What the Script Computes
Channel Resolution
@handle → channels.list(forHandle=...); /channel/UC... and bare UC... → channels.list(id=...);
legacy /user/name → forUsername. Never search.list.
Video Collection
contentDetails.relatedPlaylists.uploads → playlistItems.list pagination → videos.list in batches of 50.
Content Types
Categorized by title/description/tag patterns:
| Type | Pattern |

| Tutorial | tutorial, how to, guide, learn |
| Review | review, unbox, first look, comparison |
| Vlog | vlog, day in, life, daily |
| Educational | explain, education, lesson |
| Gaming | gameplay, game, gaming, stream |
| Music | music, song, cover, lyrics |
| Other | no match |
Duration Buckets
Short (<5 min), Medium (5-15 min), Long (15-30 min), Very Long (30+ min).
What ships with it
2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
What this file has done since we first saw it
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.
