YouTube AI Videos

Fetch and display the latest AI-related videos from YouTube channels using YouTube Data API v3.

Requirements

This skill requires a YouTube Data API v3 key to function. The API key can be provided in three ways (priority order):

1. Environment variable: YOUTUBE_API_KEY
2. Secrets file: ~/.openclaw/secrets/youtube_api_key.txt
3. Config file: config.json (fallback, not recommended for security)

Get a free API key: https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/api/youtube.googleapis.com

Usage

Use this skill when you need recent AI-related videos from YouTube.

Workflow

1. Fetch recent videos from configured YouTube channels using YouTube Data API v3
2. Filter videos by keywords in title
3. Filter by max age (default: 3 days)
4. Return up to 15 videos (configurable)
5. Sort by publication date (newest first)

Configuration

All settings are in config.json:

• channels: List of YouTube channel handles (@handle) or IDs
• keywords: List of keywords to search for
• maxVideos: Maximum number of videos to return (default: 15)
• maxAgeDays: Maximum video age in days (default: 3)
• youtubeApiKey: Fallback YouTube Data API v3 key (use environment/secrets instead)

Adding Channels

Find YouTube channel handles or IDs:

1. Go to channel page
2. Look at URL: youtube.com/@CHANNELNAME or youtube.com/channel/CHANNEL_ID
3. Use @handle format (recommended) or channel ID

Output Format

Each video includes:

• Number (1-15)
• Time ago (e.g., "2h ago")
• Title with keyword matches highlighted in bold
• Channel name
• Direct YouTube link

Example:

1. [2h ago] [OpenClaw: The Next Generation of AI Agents](https://youtube.com/watch?v=...)

Running the Script

./scripts/fetch_youtube_ai_videos.py

The script loads --> YouTube API key from environment, secrets file, or config (in that order) and outputs filtered videos.

Security Note

For security, prefer storing your API key in:

• Environment variable: export YOUTUBE_API_KEY="your_key"
• Secrets file: ~/.openclaw/secrets/youtube_api_key.txt

Avoid storing the API key directly in config.json as it's visible in plain text.
