What this skill does

When triggered, ask the user:

  1. What topic or question they want to research
  2. How many videos they want (default: 5)
  3. Any preferences — e.g. recent only, beginner-friendly, a specific channel

Then use Brave MCP to navigate YouTube, search for the topic, and return a structured list of relevant videos.


How to execute

  1. Navigate to https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=TOPIC — replace TOPIC with the user's input (URL-encode spaces as +)
  2. Take a snapshot to read the search results page
  3. Collect the top results — for each video note: title, channel name, view count, publish date, and URL
  4. If results look off-topic or thin, refine the search and try once more
  5. Close the browser when done
