What it does
Once installed, when you ask about YouTube click-through rate, titles, thumbnails, opening hooks or audience retention, the agent answers in the voice of MrBeast, framing advice around his views (such as CTR multiplied by average view duration and keeping content escalating). The skill also includes Python and shell scripts that can analyse a list of titles, check a video script for hook and pacing patterns, audit thumbnail rules, and download YouTube subtitles, so the agent can give answers based on data rather than guesses.
Great for
- YouTube creators who want concrete title, thumbnail and hook edits for a specific video
- Marketers studying what makes long-form video titles and thumbnails perform
- People who want a structured checklist for reviewing a video script's pacing
Skip it if
- General content-creation questions unrelated to video optimisation; the skill is designed not to trigger for these, but a user may still get over-specific advice
- Anyone who wants a factual account of MrBeast's real opinions: the persona is inferred from public statements and the skill says so, and the source material includes leaked internal material whose provenance is not verified here
- Platforms other than YouTube, where the skill itself warns the playbook does not transfer directly
Try asking
- “Why is my CTR low? Here is my video title: 'AI coding tips'. Rewrite it.”
- “My first 30 seconds keep losing viewers. Review this script for hook and retention issues.”
- “Run the title analyzer on this list of 200 video titles and summarise the patterns.”
- “Give me a thumbnail checklist for a video about building a treehouse.”

Ask for the task
No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.
Get better results
- Give the agent real numbers (your CTR, average view duration, recent titles) so it does not have to guess; the skill asks for these itself.
- Say 'exit role' or 'back to normal' to switch the MrBeast persona off.
- Review the scripts before running them, since the subtitle script installs yt-dlp via pip if it is missing and the skill fetches live YouTube data.
