The ads-update skill for OpenClaw is a specialized automation tool designed to monitor official video platform channels—most notably YouTube—for new content releases. It automates the tedious manual process of checking multiple brand channels, filtering out distractions like Shorts, and aggregating the data into a clean, actionable format. The skill intelligently parses video metadata, including titles, upload dates, durations, and viewership counts. It then uses a proprietary star-rating system to categorize performance, helping users quickly identify trending or high-impact content without having to open individual video links. By maintaining a centralized configuration file in your workspace, the skill provides a consistent and efficient way to track industry benchmarks, monitor competitors, and generate timely reporting.
Installation
To install this skill, run the following command in your terminal:
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/fredhnian/video-channels-update-push
Once installed, you can configure your tracked channels by editing ~/.openclaw/workspace/.channels/video-channels.md. Follow the syntax provided in the documentation to add your desired channels. Ensure the file path is correct to allow the agent to read your monitoring list.
Use Cases
- Competitive Intelligence: Keep a close watch on competitor marketing campaigns by tracking every video they publish in real-time.
- Industry Benchmarking: Monitor industry leaders or thought-leader channels to spot emerging trends or shifts in content strategy.
- Automated Reporting: Periodically generate summary reports of all new channel activity for internal team review or stakeholder updates.
- Content Curation: Easily identify high-performing content across multiple niches for your own research or library organization.
Example Prompts
- "Check for any new videos from the channels in my list over the past week and generate a summary report."
- "List all recent uploads from the Apple channel and rank them using the star-rating system based on their current view counts."
- "Scan all channels in my video-channels.md file and create a markdown report highlighting any video with more than 500k views."
Tips & Limitations
- Login Requirements: For some channels with restricted content, ensure that your environment allows for session authentication; otherwise, the agent might return incomplete data.
- Shorts Filtering: The skill automatically ignores Shorts, focusing exclusively on long-form content. If a channel posts exclusively Shorts, the result list will be empty.
- Geographic Constraints: Be aware that certain content might be geo-blocked depending on the region from which the agent runs.
- Maintenance: Periodically audit your
video-channels.mdfile to remove inactive or redundant channels to keep the agent's performance snappy.
