# YouTube Brief
|
|
16
|
+
|
|
17
|
+
You are creating a structured production brief for a YouTube video. The brief is the bridge between an idea and a filmable video - it defines what the video IS.
|
|
18
|
+
|
|
19
|
+
## Before You Start
|
|
20
|
+
|
|
21
|
+
You need from the user:
|
|
22
|
+
|
|
23
|
+
1. **The video idea** - Either a validated idea from `/yt-ideate` (with title, tier, type, angle) or a raw idea the user wants to develop
|
|
24
|
+
2. **Any constraints** - Timeline, specific features to include/exclude, target length, team capacity
|
|
25
|
+
|
|
26
|
+
If the user is coming from the ideation flow, load `validated_ideas.json` for the full context on the selected idea.
|
|
27
|
+
|
|
28
|
+
## The Briefing Process
|
|
29
|
+
|
|
30
|
+
### Step 1: Research the Topic
|
|
31
|
+
|
|
32
|
+
Before writing the brief, understand the topic deeply:
|
|
33
|
+
- What does this feature/tool actually do? (Use WebSearch if needed)
|
|
34
|
+
- What are the common pain points or confusion points?
|
|
35
|
+
- What existing content exists? What angle would differentiate this video?
|
|
36
|
+
- What's the practical value for the target audience?
|
|
37
|
+
|
|
38
|
+
### Step 2: Define the Video Identity
|
|
39
|
+
|
|
40
|
+
Work with the user to lock in:
|
|
41
|
+
|
|
42
|
+
**Content Type & Tier:**
|
|
43
|
+
- Confirm which tier and category this falls under
|
|
44
|
+
- This determines the format, length, and production approach
|
|
45
|
+
|
|
46
|
+
**The Angle:**
|
|
47
|
+
- What's the unique take? Why would someone click THIS video over alternatives?
|
|
48
|
+
- The angle should be specific and defensible, not generic
|
|
49
|
+
- Good: "How to use MCP integrations to automate your marketing reporting without any code"
|
|
50
|
+
- Bad: "MCP tutorial"
|
|
51
|
+
|
|
52
|
+
**Target Audience Segment:**
|
|
53
|
+
- Who is the primary viewer?
|
|
54
|
+
- What's their starting knowledge level for this topic?
|
|
55
|
+
|
|
56
|
+
### Step 3: Write the Brief
|
|
57
|
+
|
|
58
|
+
The brief must include:
|
|
59
|
+
|
|
60
|
+
1. **Title (working)** - Will be refined in packaging, but needs a clear working title
|
|
61
|
+
2. **Content tier & type** - e.g., Tier 1 / Feature Tutorial
|
|
62
|
+
3. **The angle** - 1-2 sentences: what makes this video unique
|
|
63
|
+
4. **Target audience** - Who exactly is this for, and what do they already know
|
|
64
|
+
5. **Key points** - 5-8 main things the viewer will learn or see demonstrated
|
|
65
|
+
6. **Value proposition** - After watching, the viewer will be able to [specific outcome]
|
|
66
|
+
7. **CTA asset** - What free asset can be given away? (template, skill, workflow, plugin)
|
|
67
|
+
8. **Prerequisites** - What does the viewer need to have set up before watching?
|
|
68
|
+
9. **Demo requirements** - What tools, accounts, or setups are needed for filming?
|
|
69
|
+
10. **Estimated length** - Target duration based on content type
|
|
70
|
+
11. **Urgency/timing** - Is this time-sensitive (update video) or evergreen?
|
|
71
|
+
|
|
72
|
+
### Step 4: Review with User
|
|
73
|
+
|
|
74
|
+
Present the complete brief and ask:
|
|
75
|
+
|
|
76
|
+
"Here's the brief for '[title]'. Review it:"
|
|
77
|
+
|
|
78
|
+
```
|
|
79
|
+
[Full brief in clean markdown format]
|
|
80
|
+
```
|
|
81
|
+
|
|
82
|
+
"What would you like to adjust?"
|
|
83
|
+
- Approve - move to packaging
|
|
84
|
+
- Adjust the angle
|
|
85
|
+
- Add/remove key points
|
|
86
|
+
- Change the CTA asset
|
|
87
|
+
- Change the target audience
|
|
88
|
+
- Start over with a different approach
|
|
89
|
+
|
|
90
|
+
**This is a mandatory human checkpoint. Do NOT proceed without approval.**
|
|
91
|
+
|
|
92
|
+
### Step 5: Save the Brief
|
|
93
|
+
|
|
94
|
+
Save the approved brief as `video-brief-yt-brief.md` in the working directory.
|
|
95
|
+
|
|
96
|
+
## Key Principles
|
|
97
|
+
|
|
98
|
+
- **The angle is everything.** A brief without a clear, differentiated angle will produce a generic video. Push the user to be specific.
|
|
99
|
+
- **Practical value first.** Every key point should contribute to the viewer being able to DO something. No filler sections.
|
|
100
|
+
- **CTA integration.** The CTA asset should feel like a natural extension of the video content, not a bolted-on pitch.
|
|
101
|
+
- **Honest about scope.** If a topic is too big for one video, say so and suggest splitting it. Don't try to cram a Full Tutorial into a Feature Tutorial.
|
|
102
|
+
- **Team-ready.** The brief should contain enough detail that a team member could start demo prep without asking follow-up questions.
|
|
103
|
+
|
|
104
|
+

# YouTube Ideation
|
|
16
|
+
|
|
17
|
+
You are generating and validating video ideas for a YouTube channel. Every idea must align with the content strategy and serve the target audience.
|
|
18
|
+
|
|
19
|
+
## Before You Start
|
|
20
|
+
|
|
21
|
+
You need from the user:
|
|
22
|
+
|
|
23
|
+
1. **Focus area** - What tool, niche, or topic to ideate around (e.g., "AI tools for professionals", "recent software updates", "productivity workflows")
|
|
24
|
+
2. **Research data** (optional) - If `/yt-research` was run first, load `niche-analysis.json` and `niche-report.md` for data-informed ideation
|
|
25
|
+
3. **Constraints** (optional) - Any specific requirements (e.g., "only short videos", "needs to be filmable this week", "must tie to a product launch")
|
|
26
|
+
|
|
27
|
+
If the user provided focus already, confirm and proceed.
|
|
28
|
+
|
|
29
|
+
## The Ideation Process
|
|
30
|
+
|
|
31
|
+
### Step 1: Load Context
|
|
32
|
+
|
|
33
|
+
Understand the creator's:
|
|
34
|
+
- **Content pillars** - What core topics does the channel focus on?
|
|
35
|
+
- **Audience** - Who are the viewers? What's their skill level?
|
|
36
|
+
- **Content types** - What formats work best? (tutorials, reviews, updates, comparisons)
|
|
37
|
+
- **Trending vs evergreen** - What's the balance between timely and long-lasting content?
|
|
38
|
+
|
|
39
|
+
### Step 2: Generate 15-20 Raw Ideas
|
|
40
|
+
|
|
41
|
+
Use these ideation methods:
|
|
42
|
+
|
|
43
|
+
**Method 1: Gap Analysis** (if research data available)
|
|
44
|
+
- Content gaps from competitor analysis
|
|
45
|
+
- Topics with high demand but low competition
|
|
46
|
+
- Complex concepts that need accessible translation
|
|
47
|
+
|
|
48
|
+
**Method 2: Trend Riding**
|
|
49
|
+
- Recent tool updates or feature launches
|
|
50
|
+
- Industry developments relevant to the audience
|
|
51
|
+
- Viral topics that can be made practical
|
|
52
|
+
|
|
53
|
+
**Method 3: Format Innovation**
|
|
54
|
+
- Existing topics in new formats (comparison, mega-guide, use-case compilation)
|
|
55
|
+
- Content types competitors aren't using
|
|
56
|
+
- Series potential (multi-part tutorials)
|
|
57
|
+
|
|
58
|
+
**Method 4: Audience Needs**
|
|
59
|
+
- Questions the audience is asking (Reddit, YouTube comments, community)
|
|
60
|
+
- Problems viewers face with the tools they use
|
|
61
|
+
- "How do I..." queries for the niche
|
|
62
|
+
|
|
63
|
+
For each idea, define:
|
|
64
|
+
- **Working title**
|
|
65
|
+
- **Content tier** (Tier 1: growth content, Tier 2: supporting content)
|
|
66
|
+
- **Content type** (Full Tutorial, Feature Tutorial, Update Video, Use Case Video, Comparison, etc.)
|
|
67
|
+
- **One-line angle** (what makes this video unique)
|
|
68
|
+
- **Timeliness** (trending/urgent or evergreen)
|
|
69
|
+
|
|
70
|
+
**Priority distribution:**
|
|
71
|
+
- 60-70% Tier 1 ideas (the growth engine)
|
|
72
|
+
- 30-40% Tier 2 ideas (supporting content)
|
|
73
|
+
|
|
74
|
+
### Step 3: Quick Self-Filter
|
|
75
|
+
|
|
76
|
+
Before validation, run each idea through a strategy test:
|
|
77
|
+
- Does it serve the target audience? (Must be yes)
|
|
78
|
+
- Can it be practically demonstrated? (Prefer yes)
|
|
79
|
+
- Does it support the content funnel? (Can we give away an asset?)
|
|
80
|
+
- Is it filmable in the current format?
|
|
81
|
+
|
|
82
|
+
Remove ideas that fail the test. Note why for transparency.
|
|
83
|
+
|
|
84
|
+
### Step 4: Validate Ideas
|
|
85
|
+
|
|
86
|
+
Spawn `idea-validator` sub-agents (5 ideas per agent) to assess:
|
|
87
|
+
- Search demand (YouTube autocomplete, Google Trends, forums)
|
|
88
|
+
- Competition level (existing videos, quality bar)
|
|
89
|
+
- Trend direction (rising, stable, declining)
|
|
90
|
+
- Audience fit (accessibility, practical value)
|
|
91
|
+
|
|
92
|
+
Each sub-agent returns an opportunity score (1-10) per idea.
|
|
93
|
+
|
|
94
|
+
### Step 5: Present Ranked Results
|
|
95
|
+
|
|
96
|
+
Present ideas to the user sorted by opportunity score:
|
|
97
|
+
|
|
98
|
+
```markdown
|
|
99
|
+
Here are your validated video ideas, ranked by opportunity:
|
|
100
|
+
|
|
101
|
+
| # | Title | Tier | Type | Demand | Competition | Score |
|
|
102
|
+
|---|-------|------|------|--------|-------------|-------|
|
|
103
|
+
| 1 | [title] | Tier 1 | Feature Tutorial | High | Low | 9.2 |
|
|
104
|
+
| 2 | [title] | Tier 1 | Update Video | High | Medium | 8.5 |
|
|
105
|
+
...
|
|
106
|
+
|
|
107
|
+
Top recommendation: [title] - [1 sentence why]
|
|
108
|
+
|
|
109
|
+
Which ideas do you want to develop into briefs?
|
|
110
|
+
```
|
|
111
|
+
|
|
112
|
+
Options:
|
|
113
|
+
- Pick 1-3 ideas to brief
|
|
114
|
+
- Generate more ideas in a different direction
|
|
115
|
+
- Refine a specific idea before briefing
|
|
116
|
+
- Go back to research
|
|
117
|
+
|
|
118
|
+
## Key Principles
|
|
119
|
+
|
|
120
|
+
- **Tier 1 first** - Always prioritize growth content (tutorials, use cases, updates). These drive channel growth.
|
|
121
|
+
- **Audience-appropriate** - Every idea must pass the "would the target viewer find this useful?" test.
|
|
122
|
+
- **Practical over theoretical** - Favor ideas where the viewer walks away with something they can DO.
|
|
123
|
+
- **CTA-ready** - Strong ideas include a natural asset giveaway (template, workflow, plugin) that ties to the creator's business.
|
|
124
|
+
- **Data-informed** - When research data is available, use it. Gut-feel ideation is a fallback, not the default.

# YouTube Outline
|
|
16
|
+
|
|
17
|
+
You are creating a detailed production outline for a YouTube video. The outline is the final pre-production artifact - it specifies exactly what to show, what to say, and what demos to run, and tells the team exactly what to prepare.
|
|
18
|
+
|
|
19
|
+
## Before You Start
|
|
20
|
+
|
|
21
|
+
You need:
|
|
22
|
+
|
|
23
|
+
1. **The approved brief** - Load `video-brief-yt-outline.md` from the working directory
|
|
24
|
+
2. **The approved packaging** - Load `packaging-yt-outline.md` for the final title and thumbnail direction
|
|
25
|
+
3. **Topic research** (optional) - If the topic requires technical accuracy, use WebSearch to verify specific feature details, steps, or capabilities
|
|
26
|
+
|
|
27
|
+
## The Outline Process
|
|
28
|
+
|
|
29
|
+
### Step 1: Research the Topic in Depth
|
|
30
|
+
|
|
31
|
+
Before writing the outline, deeply understand the feature/tool being demonstrated:
|
|
32
|
+
- Verify all steps work as expected (use WebSearch to check documentation)
|
|
33
|
+
- Identify potential gotchas or failure points
|
|
34
|
+
- Note any prerequisites the viewer needs
|
|
35
|
+
- Find the shortest path to the value proposition (minimize setup time in the video)
|
|
36
|
+
|
|
37
|
+
### Step 2: Define the Video Structure
|
|
38
|
+
|
|
39
|
+
Based on the content type from the brief, choose the appropriate structure:
|
|
40
|
+
|
|
41
|
+
**For Feature Tutorials (15-30 min):**
|
|
42
|
+
1. Hook (30-60 sec) - What they'll be able to do by the end
|
|
43
|
+
2. Context (1-2 min) - Why this matters, brief overview
|
|
44
|
+
3. Core demonstration (10-20 min) - Step-by-step walkthrough
|
|
45
|
+
4. Advanced tips (2-3 min) - Power user moves

|
|
51
|
+
3. Walkthrough (8-15 min) - Demo each new feature
|
|

|
+
4. Impact (1-2 min) - What this means for you
|
|
53
|
+
5. CTA + wrap (1 min) - Asset giveaway
|
|
54
|
+
|
|
55
|
+
**For Use Case Videos (15-30 min):**
|
|
56
|
+
1. Hook (30-60 sec) - The impressive outcome
|
|
57
|
+
2. Problem (1-2 min) - What manual process this replaces
|
|
58
|
+
3. Solution overview (1-2 min) - High-level workflow
|
|
59
|
+
4. Step-by-step build (10-20 min) - Building the workflow live

|
61
|
+
6. CTA + wrap (1-2 min) - Asset giveaway
|
|
62
|
+
|
|
63
|
+
**For Full Tutorials (30-90+ min):**
|
|
64
|
+
1. Hook (1-2 min) - What they'll know by the end
|
|
65
|
+
2. Overview/roadmap (2-3 min) - What the tutorial covers
|
|
66
|
+
3. Setup (5-10 min) - Getting started from scratch
|
|
67
|
+
4. Core sections (20-60 min) - Organized by feature/capability
|
|
68
|
+
5. Advanced section (5-10 min) - Power user techniques
|
|
69
|
+
6. Summary + next steps (2-3 min) - Recap + what to learn next
|
|
70
|
+
7. CTA (1-2 min) - Asset giveaway
|
|
71
|
+
|
|
72
|
+
### Step 3: Write the Detailed Outline
|
|
73
|
+
|
|
74
|
+
For each section, specify:
|
|
75
|
+
|
|
76
|
+
**Talking points:**
|
|
77
|
+
- Key message for this section (not a script - bullet points)
|
|
78
|
+
- Transition from previous section
|
|
79
|
+
- Any specific phrases or analogies to use
|
|
80
|
+
|
|
81
|
+
**What's on screen:**
|
|
82
|
+
- Screen-share of what tool/feature
|
|
83
|
+
- Specific actions to perform (click here, type this, navigate there)
|
|
84
|
+
- Any diagrams, slides, or supporting visuals
|
|
85
|
+
|
|
86
|
+
**Demo sequence:**
|
|
87
|
+
- Exact steps to demonstrate
|
|
88
|
+
- Expected outcome the viewer should see
|
|
89
|
+
- What to do if something goes wrong (backup plan)
|
|
90
|
+
|
|
91
|
+
**Timing:**
|
|
92
|
+
- Target duration for this section
|
|
93
|
+
- Running total to stay within target video length
|
|
94
|
+
|
|
95
|
+
### Step 4: Create Demo Prep Checklist
|
|
96
|
+
|
|
97
|
+
For each demo in the outline, specify what the team needs to prepare:
|
|
98
|
+
- Accounts and tools to have logged in
|
|
99
|
+
- Sample data or projects to have ready
|
|
100
|
+
- Environment settings (clean workspace, no notifications, etc.)
|
|
101
|
+
- Backup plans (what if the live demo fails?)
|
|
102
|
+
|
|
103
|
+
### Step 5: Present and Review
|
|
104
|
+
|
|
105
|
+
Present the outline to the user:
|
|
106
|
+
|
|
107
|
+
```markdown
|
|
108
|
+
## Video Outline: [Title]
|
|
109
|
+
|
|
110
|
+
Total estimated length: [X] minutes
|
|
111
|
+
|
|
112
|
+
[Full section-by-section outline]
|
|
113
|
+
```
|
|
114
|
+
|
|
115
|
+
Also present the demo prep checklist separately:
|
|
116
|
+
|
|
117
|
+
```markdown
|
|
118
|
+
## Demo Prep Checklist: [Title]
|
|
119
|
+
|
|
120
|
+
[Full checklist organized by demo sequence]
|
|
121
|
+
```
|
|
122
|
+
|
|
123
|
+
"Here's the outline and demo prep list. The team can start preparing."
|
|
124
|
+
- Approve and start prep
|
|
125
|
+
- Adjust section order
|
|
126
|
+
- Add/remove sections
|
|
127
|
+
- Change demo approach
|
|
128
|
+
- Need more detail on a specific section
|
|
129
|
+
|
|
130
|
+
### Step 6: Save
|
|
131
|
+
|
|
132
|
+
Save two files:
|
|
133
|
+
- `video-outline-yt-outline.md` - The full outline
|
|
134
|
+
- `demo-prep-checklist-yt-outline.md` - The team's preparation checklist
|
|
135
|
+
|
|
136
|
+
## Key Principles
|
|
137
|
+
|
|
138
|
+
- **Show, don't tell.** Every section should have something on screen. Minimize talking-head time. The value is in the demonstration.
|
|
139
|
+
- **Shortest path to value.** Get to the first "wow" moment as fast as possible. Front-load the payoff, then go deeper.
|
|
140
|
+
- **Direct and practical.** The outline should reflect a direct, no-fluff style. No "in this section we'll cover..." filler. Just do the thing.
|
|
141
|
+
- **Team-ready.** The demo prep checklist should be detailed enough that a team member can prepare everything without asking questions.
|
|
142
|
+
- **Timing is real.** Be honest about section durations. A 20-minute video with 25 minutes of outline is a problem. Cut or restructure.
|
|
143
|
+
- **Failure-proofed.** For every live demo, include a backup plan. If the API call times out, if the feature bugs out - what's the fallback?
|
|
144
|
+
|
|
145
|
+

# YouTube Packaging
|
|
16
|
+
|
|
17
|
+
You are creating the title and thumbnail concept for a YouTube video. Packaging is where CTR is determined - the title and thumbnail are the single biggest factor in whether a video succeeds.
|
|
18
|
+
|
|
19
|
+
## Before You Start
|
|
20
|
+
|
|
21
|
+
You need from the user:
|
|
22
|
+
|
|
23
|
+
1. **The approved brief** - Either load `video-brief-yt-packaging.md` from the working directory or get the brief details from the user
|
|
24
|
+
2. **Timing context** - Is this a trending/update video (speed matters) or evergreen (optimize for long-term search)?
|
|
25
|
+
3. **Competitive context** - What titles are competitors using for similar content? (Use WebSearch if not already known)
|
|
26
|
+
|
|
27
|
+
## The Packaging Process
|
|
28
|
+
|
|
29
|
+
### Step 1: Competitive Title Analysis
|
|
30
|
+
|
|
31
|
+
Before writing titles, research what's already out there:
|
|
32
|
+
- Search YouTube for the topic
|
|
33
|
+
- Note the top 5-10 existing titles
|
|
34
|
+
- Identify patterns: what words/structures appear in high-view videos?
|
|
35
|
+
- Identify gaps: what angle is NO ONE using?
|
|
36
|
+
|
|
37
|
+
### Step 2: Generate Title Options
|
|
38
|
+
|
|
39
|
+
Create 5-10 title options across different strategies:
|
|
40
|
+
|
|
41
|
+
**Strategy A: Direct Benefit**
|
|
42
|
+
Focus on what the viewer will be able to DO.
|
|
43
|
+
- "How to [Verb] [Tool] to [Outcome]"
|
|
44
|
+
- "Build [Thing] with [Tool] in [Time]"
|
|
45
|
+
|
|
46
|
+
**Strategy B: Curiosity Gap**
|
|
47
|
+
Create intrigue without being misleading.
|
|
48
|
+
- "The [Tool] Feature Nobody Is Talking About"
|
|
49
|
+
- "I Automated My Entire [Process] - Here's How"
|
|
50
|
+
|
|
51
|
+
**Strategy C: Authority/Definitive**
|
|
52
|
+
Position as THE resource.
|
|
53
|
+
- "The Complete [Tool] Guide for [Year]"
|
|
54
|
+
- "Everything You Need to Know About [Feature]"
|
|
55
|
+
|
|
56
|
+
**Strategy D: Trending/Urgency**
|
|
57
|
+
For update videos and time-sensitive content.
|
|
58
|
+
- "[Tool] Just Changed Everything - Here's What You Need to Know"
|
|
59
|
+
- "New [Feature] Walkthrough: [Specific Capability]"
|
|
60
|
+
|
|
61
|
+
**For each title:**
|
|
62
|
+
- Note which strategy it uses
|
|
63
|
+
- Estimate search-friendliness (contains searchable keywords?)
|
|
64
|
+
- Estimate curiosity factor (would you click?)
|
|
65
|
+
- Note the character count (aim for under 60 characters for full display)
|
|
66
|
+
|
|
67
|
+
### Step 3: Generate Thumbnail Concepts
|
|
68
|
+
|
|
69
|
+
Create 3-5 thumbnail concepts. Each concept should include:
|
|
70
|
+
|
|
71
|
+
**Visual description:**
|
|
72
|
+
- Main visual element (screen-share preview, tool logo, face expression, graphic)
|
|
73
|
+
- Text overlay (1-4 words MAX - the thumbnail is not the title)
|
|
74
|
+
- Color scheme and contrast
|
|
75
|
+
- Layout (rule of thirds, focal point)
|
|
76
|
+
|
|
77
|
+
**For each concept:**
|
|
78
|
+
- How does it complement the title? (Title + thumbnail = one message, not two separate messages)
|
|
79
|
+
- Does it stand out in a feed of similar videos?
|
|
80
|
+
- Is it readable at mobile size (small thumbnail)?
|
|
81
|
+
- Does it communicate the value proposition visually?
|
|
82

### Step 4: A/B Test Variants
|
|
84
|
+
|
|
85
|
+
For the top 2-3 title + thumbnail combos, suggest A/B testing variants:
|
|
86
|
+
- Same title, different thumbnail approach
|
|
87
|
+
- Same thumbnail, different title strategy
|
|
88
|
+
- Small tweaks (word swaps, number inclusion)
|
|

|
+
|
|

|
+
### Step 5: Present to User
|
|
91
|
+
|
|
92
|
+
Present all options in a structured format:

## Key Principles
|
|
133
|
+
|
|
134
|
+
- **Title and thumbnail are ONE system.** They must work together. The thumbnail should NOT repeat the title - they should complement each other. Title says what, thumbnail shows the emotion/intrigue.
|
|
135
|
+
- **No clickbait without substance.** Titles should be compelling but honest. Every promise in the title must be delivered in the video.
|
|
136
|
+
- **Search + browse balance.** For evergreen content, include searchable keywords. For trending content, prioritize curiosity and urgency.
|
|
137
|
+
- **Mobile-first thumbnails.** Most YouTube browsing happens on mobile. Thumbnails must be readable at small sizes.
|
|
138
|
+
- **Under 60 characters.** Titles get truncated on mobile. The most important words should be in the first 40 characters.
|
|
