Video Ideation Engine

Generate positioned YouTube video ideas grounded in existing research and competitive analysis. Outputs structured idea briefs ready to feed into /hooks and /outlines.

This skill is strategy, not research. It consumes research outputs from /yt-pipeline, /firecrawl-search, or vault notes. It does NOT replicate deep research — if no research exists yet, it runs a lightweight competitive scan only.

• Brainstorm video ideas on a topic
