Cursor는 Claude Desktop과 동일한 mcpServers 스키마 사용. 프로젝트 설정이 전역보다 우선.

Claude Desktop과 같은 형식. Windsurf 재시작 후 적용.

사용 사례

실전 활용법: claude-youtube

How to audit a YouTube channel and get a growth plan

👤 Creators plateauing or rebooting a channel ⏱ ~60 min intermediate

언제 쓸까: Views are flat and you don't know if the problem is niche, hooks, or cadence.

사전 조건

Skill cloned — git clone https://github.com/AgriciDaniel/claude-youtube ~/.claude/skills/claude-youtube
Channel URL and last 20 video titles / thumbnails / retention — YouTube Studio exports or manual paste

흐름

Dump the data

Audit channel <url>. Here's the last 20 videos with title, duration, views, and average retention %.✓ 복사됨

→ Findings on niche signal, hooks, thumbnails, cadence
Pick the biggest lever

Which one change would move views the most over the next 4 weeks?✓ 복사됨

→ One clear lever with justification
Turn it into a plan

Produce a 4-week content plan focused on that lever.✓ 복사됨

→ Video-by-video plan with titles and hooks

결과: A focused growth plan, not 'post more consistently' platitudes.

함정

Too many simultaneous changes — no signal — Change one variable at a time; measure for 2–4 weeks

함께 쓰기: filesystem

Write a retention-optimized video script

👤 Creators scripting a long-form video ⏱ ~45 min intermediate

언제 쓸까: You have the video idea but writing retention-aware scripts is a weak spot.

흐름

Brief Claude on the video

Video idea: 'How Apple's M-series chips actually work'. Audience: curious but non-technical. Length: ~12 min.✓ 복사됨

→ Proposed structure with hook, promise, payoffs
Script with pattern interrupts

Write a full script with visual cues, B-roll callouts, and pattern interrupts every 45–60 seconds.✓ 복사됨

→ Paced script with timing anchors
Cold-open variants

Give me 3 cold-open variants optimized for 30-second hold.✓ 복사됨

→ 3 distinct hooks

결과: A production-ready script your editor can cut from.

함정

Pattern interrupts feel forced — Let them emerge from content shifts, not arbitrary timers

Iterate titles and thumbnails for a video

👤 Creators at post-production ⏱ ~20 min beginner

언제 쓸까: Video is done and you want to maximize CTR.

흐름

Generate title variants

Give me 10 title variants targeting curiosity, stakes, and specificity.✓ 복사됨

→ 10 distinct angles
Score for intent match

Which ones actually match the video's payoff? No clickbait.✓ 복사됨

→ Filtered list with reasoning
Thumbnail brief

Write a thumbnail brief (composition, text, emotion, contrast) for the best title.✓ 복사됨

→ Brief the designer can execute in 20 minutes

결과: A title + thumbnail pair that earns its CTR.

함정

Overpromising — high CTR, bad retention — Reject titles whose promise the video doesn't deliver

조합

다른 MCP와 조합해 10배 효율

claude-youtube-skill + claude-shorts-skill

Strategy (this skill) plus automated cutting (claude-shorts)

Generate Shorts ideas for this episode, then hand them to claude-shorts for auto-rendering.✓ 복사됨
