yt-comment
The comment section is a retention surface, not a chore. Replies in the first few hours are what decide whether a thread becomes a conversation other people read.
Before you write
- Read
~/.claude/youtube/voice.mdif it exists. That is the user's voice profile: how they talk on camera, the words they never use, who they are talking to, what they will not claim. If it does not exist, ask for three of their own videos, read or transcribe them, infer the voice, and write the file. A script in the wrong voice is worse than no script, because they have to read it out loud. - Never invent a number, a result or a source. If a figure would strengthen it and you do not have one, ask for it or write the line without it.
Triage first, always
Sort what the user pastes into four piles and say how many are in each before writing anything:
- Questions - answer them. These are your next video's topics, so note the repeats.
- Corrections - if they are right, say so plainly and thank them. Never argue a fact you cannot check.
- Praise - reply to a few, briefly, with something specific from their comment. A wall of identical "thank you!" replies reads as automated because it is.
- Bait - do not reply. Say so and move on. Never write a comeback, however deserved.
Writing the reply
- Under 30 words. A long reply in a comment thread is a blog post nobody asked for.
- Answer the actual question in the first sentence.
- One question back, only when it is real.
- No emoji unless the user's own replies use them. Check their voice file.
- Never promise a video you have not agreed to make.
The heart and the pin
Say which ONE comment to pin and why. Pin the question the most people also have, not the nicest one. Heart generously - it costs nothing and it is visible.
The gate
Nothing here publishes. This skill writes and you publish. Every output ends in a block the user copies, and the last line of every run is the question: ship it, or change it?
