lite/youtube-studio-mini-guide.md |
Condensed strategy guide — what the tool does, core concepts, quick setup, and how to get value in your first 5 minutes |

| Component | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Video Upload — resumable upload with progress bar, supports MP4/MOV/AVI/MKV/WebM/FLV/WMV/M4V | Upload anything, resume automatically on connection drops, 256KB chunked protocol |
| AI Optimization — generates SEO titles, descriptions, and 15–25 keyword tags | Rank higher without hiring an SEO specialist — and it's fully optional |
| Schedule Posts — upload now, publish later with timezone-aware scheduling | Batch your recording days, spread out your publish dates |
| Analytics Dashboard — views, watch time, subscribers, revenue, daily breakdowns | Know what's working without the YouTube Studio UI |
| Batch Processing — process entire folders with metadata auto-detection | Upload 20 videos in one command instead of 20 browser sessions |
| Thumbnails + Playlists + Comments + Captions — full channel management | One tool for everything you'd do manually in YouTube Studio |
| OAuth 2.0 with Auto-Refresh — authenticate once, never re-auth | Tokens refresh automatically — no re-exporting cookies every few days |
| Zero pip dependencies — Python stdlib only | Nothing extra to install, no third-party supply chain to audit |
| Hermes Agent skill (SKILL.md) included — natural-language control | Ask your AI assistant to upload, schedule, or check analytics for you |
Runs on: Python 3.9+, any OS (Windows/macOS/Linux), Hermes Agent, or Claude Desktop. Real YouTube Data API v3 — not a browser bot.
- Content creators who upload 3+ videos a week and are tired of clicking through YouTube Studio for every one of them
- Creators who batch-record and want to schedule uploads across multiple days automatically
- Hermes Agent or Claude Desktop users who want their AI assistant managing their channel directly
- Anyone who wants SEO-optimized metadata without hiring a specialist
If you upload once a month, the free YouTube Studio web UI is genuinely fine for you — this tool pays off once uploading becomes a repeated chore.
This lite version is a work in progress. What's missing? What would make the mini-guide or prompts more useful for your channel? Open an issue or start a discussion — we read every one and use it to improve both the free and full versions.
