Agent-callable YouTube tools — search and read videos, update and delete videos, manage playlists and playlist items, read and post comments, rate videos, manage subscriptions, and read channel and caption metadata. Use when the user mentions YouTube or wants to find, comment on, or organize YouTube videos and playlists, even if they don't name YouTube explicitly.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# YouTube

<!-- BEGIN:skill-intro -->

Scripts for working with YouTube against the [YouTube Data API v3](https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3) (`https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/`): search and read videos, update or delete videos, like or dislike videos, create and manage playlists and their items, read and post comments, manage subscriptions, and read channel, category, and caption metadata. 22 scripts across video discovery, video and playlist management, community engagement, and the read surfaces an agent needs to resolve ids.

<!-- END:skill-intro -->

## When to use this

<!-- BEGIN:skill-use-cases -->

- An agent needs to **find or read** video data — search for videos, get a video's full statistics and details, list the videos in a playlist, or read a channel's profile and uploads.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add zapier/connectors/youtube@sha256:50cb5d5e82aa4261

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260814.c357340, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
