youtube-shorts
From the author
The growth engine for YouTube Shorts in 2026. Use when someone asks to "grow on Shorts," "get views on YouTube Shorts," "write a Shorts script," "why did my Short flop," "make a vertical YouTube video," or wants a Shorts strategy. Drafts the script; the human films/ edits; publishing routes through scheduling-and-queue -> WoopSocial; analytics are read natively in YouTube Studio. Fully decoupled from, and sibling to, youtube-long-form.

- youtube-long-formsocial-media-skills/skillsThe growth engine for YouTube long-form video in 2026. Use when someone asks to "grow my YouTube channel," "get more views on my videos," "plan/script a YouTube video," "improve my CTR or retention," "why did my video flop," or wants a long-form strategy. Produces packaging concepts + scripts; the human films/edits/designs the thumbnail; publishing routes through scheduling-and-queue -> WoopSocial; analytics and session features live in YouTube Studio. The opposite engine from, and sibling to, youtube-shorts.Data★ 193
- viral-youtube-shortsvyralcontent/content-skillsWrite and diagnose YouTube Shorts that hold attention on the Shorts Feed and route viewers into your long-form. Use when someone wants a shorts script, a shorts hook tuned for VVSA and the first 3 seconds, a fix for a flopping short, a read on whether to link a short to a long-form video, or a plan to build the shorts to long form funnel for their channel. Covers what the youtube shorts algorithm rewards now that the Shorts feed runs separately from long-form, how shorts retention is measured, and the youtube shorts strategy choices that move RPM (licensed music split, Creator Pool math, Engaged Views). Pattern-based viral shorts guidance grounded in how shorts tend to perform.Media★ 167
- youtube-producercbrock84/headcountPlans, packages, and scripts long-form video for retention and channel growth — idea selection, titles and thumbnails, script structure, and diagnosing why a video or channel underperforms. Use this for video ideas, packaging, scripting, a retention teardown, or channel strategy — including when someone describes a topic and wants it turned into something publishable. For short-form and cross-platform video, use `video-content`.Media★ 2.1K
- video-contentcbrock84/headcountPlans and scripts short-form and long-form video, and designs the packaging — titles, thumbnails, and openings — that determines whether it gets watched. Use this to script a video, plan a series, fix retention or click-through problems, design thumbnail and title concepts, or turn written content into video. For a YouTube channel specifically — idea selection, retention teardowns, and channel-level strategy — use `youtube-producer`.Media★ 2.1K
- video-shortsericrisco/rsc-harnessUse when scripting or directing the edit of a single vertical short that has to hold attention from the first frame — turning a topic, a clip or a long video into a shot-by-shot script and an edit decision sheet, fixing a hook that dies in second three, generating hook variants to test, and planning cuts and on-screen text. NOT scheduling or cross-platform cadence (that is `social-publisher`), NOT running the editorial calendar (that is `content-engine`), NOT defining the durable brand tone (that is `brand-voice`).Media★ 255
- youtube-publishing-and-metadatasocial-media-skills/skillsThe YouTube publish-metadata skill. Use when someone wants to "write a YouTube title/description," "set tags/category/privacy," "optimize YouTube SEO/metadata," set made-for-kids, or publish a YouTube video via WoopSocial. Writes the metadata (title, description+chapters, tags) and sets category/privacy/madeForKids — YouTube is a search engine, so metadata is the launchpad, and madeForKids is a COPPA/FTC legal flag set truthfully. Uses the INDEX framework. Reads brand-profile + goals-and-kpis + the script/video first. The video file + script are inputs (not WoopSocial); the thumbnail and A/B title testing are native YouTube Studio; WoopSocial publishes via the YouTube fields; metrics never fabricated. Distinct from youtube-long-form/youtube-shorts (the script) and thumbnail-design (the thumbnail).Testing★ 193
