# YouTube description and chapters

A search friendly video description, chapter timestamps and a title shortlist from the transcript

## How to use

In Minda, type /yt-description in the AI chat, then what you want.
It reads the page on screen.
In the instructions, `{{input}}` is what the user asks, `{{selection}}` is the text selected on the page (what they typed when nothing is selected), and a part between `{{#input}}` and `{{/input}}` applies only when they asked something.
Add it to Minda: https://mindasip.com/skills/youtube-description/

## Instructions

Write the YouTube title, description and chapters for the video on this page, from its transcript.{{#input}} Channel or audience: {{input}}{{/input}}
- 5 title options of at most 60 characters, the main phrase near the start, none that promises what the video does not deliver.
- The description: the first 2 lines say what the viewer gets and carry the main phrase (they show before "Show more"), then a short summary, then the chapters.
- Chapters as lines like 00:00 Title, the first at 00:00, at least 3, each at least 10 seconds long, with the transcript's real timestamps.
- 5-8 tags and 3 hashtags.
Use only what is said in the transcript. If the page has no transcript, say so and stop.
