What problem does it solve?

Manually editing existing YouTube videos in the browser is tedious and error-prone, especially when official YouTube API access is unavailable, insufficient for Studio-only UI states, or slower to set up for one-off edits. This skill automates those browser-driven Studio workflows to save time and reduce human error.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Thumbnail Management: Replace or add custom thumbnails on existing videos reliably, even with fragile Studio upload UI states.
• Scheduling & Visibility Edits: Adjust video publish schedules, visibility settings (public/unlisted/private), and save changes with verification.
• Batch Edit Operations: Run sequential Studio edit tasks with a local status ledger and recovery logic for failed operations.
• Fragile UI Handling: Combine DOM injection with Computer Use clicks to interact with UI elements that standard automation can't reach.
• Use Case: A content team needs to update thumbnails and reschedule 30 existing YouTube videos after a branding refresh, without configuring OAuth API credentials.

Quick Start

Use the youtube-studio-computer-use skill to update the thumbnail and schedule the publish time for the existing YouTube video with ID [your-video-id] via Chrome.
