Ootto-AI/claude-content-skills

Free, copy-paste Claude skills that run your content growth factory — turn ideas (and your Obsidian memory) into scroll-stopping Instagram reels and YouTube videos: hooks, scripts, thumbnails, repurposing, captions, and a 2-week posting calendar.

Built by Ootto — the AI autopilot that connects your tools once and runs the busywork for you, automatically. These skills are the manual, do-it-yourself version. Ootto is the autopilot. See it in 3 minutes →

Claude "skills" that work like a whole content team in one install. The workflow: scrape what's in demand → feed Claude a viral reel → it studies the whole thing → it builds you an original in your voice → then it turns the comments into leads. One skill (Content Factory) runs all the others in order so you get a finished reel + the lead loop from one command; one gives Claude a permanent memory; the rest each do one job in the pipeline. No code, no editing suite.

The same factory, for your YouTube channel: long-form videos and Shorts. YouTube Factory runs them all in order; or run any one on its own.

Run the whole channel (1)

• YouTube Factory: find what works, title and thumbnail first, script, build, post through Ootto, then learn from the numbers.

Study: learn what is working (1)

• YouTube Analytics: your channel and your competitors: views per day, engagement, the length and titles that win. (Bundled from openclaudia/openclaudia-skills, MIT.)

Create: idea to finished video (3)

• YouTube Scriptwriting: brain dump to a retention-built script: hook, structure, rehooks, binge-loop outro. (Bundled from cdeistopened/skill-stack, MIT.)
• YouTube Thumbnail: a high-CTR thumbnail brief and image prompt from your title. (Bundled from charlie947/social-media-skills, MIT.)
• Video Marketing: Shorts vs long-form, the first 3 seconds, script structure per platform. (Bundled from kostja94/marketing-skills, MIT.)

Get found (1)

• YouTube SEO: titles, descriptions, tags and thumbnails that rank in YouTube, Google and AI answers. (Bundled from kostja94/marketing-skills, MIT.)

1. In Claude, open Settings, then Connectors, then Add custom connector.
2. Name it Ootto and paste https://mcp.ootto.ai/mcp. Press Connect, then Allow.
3. Log in to Ootto, pick YouTube, and allow access to your channel.
4. Tell Claude: "Run the YouTube factory for my channel: study what works in my niche and make my next video."

The same connection runs Instagram, so one Claude can post a reel to Instagram and the same video as a YouTube Short.

  1. FIND ............... agent-reach ........... top videos + Shorts in your niche, transcripts, comments
  2. STUDY .............. youtube-analytics ..... your channel vs competitors: what wins, what flops
  3. TITLE + THUMBNAIL .. youtube-seo + youtube-thumbnail  sell the video before you write it
  4. HOOK ............... virality .............. something happens in the first 3 seconds
  5. SCRIPT ............. youtube-scriptwriting . retention-built, rehook every 30-60s
  6. BUILD .............. reel-builder .......... 16:9 long-form or 9:16 Short, a visual on every line
  7. PACKAGE ............ youtube-seo ........... description, chapters, tags
  8. POST ............... Ootto ................. uploads to your channel (unlisted for review first)
  9. COMPOUND ........... youtube-analytics + ai-brain  the next video starts smarter

This is exactly how the page gets made — idea → leads, then 3× a day. Content Factory runs this start to finish; or run any step on its own.

Rules that make it land: the hook carries 80% (front-load it, payoff in ~1.5s, works on mute) · every line gets a visual (no "text on a card" for a demo line) · model the format, write your own words (copies get buried) · the public reply never contains a link — the link goes in the DM · the CTA must deliver what it promises. Rotate the angle each post (result/proof → how-to → contrarian) and stagger morning/midday/evening.

Generic AI content sounds generic. The fix is memory — give Claude what's already worked for you.

Use an Obsidian vault (a free folder of Markdown notes you own) as Claude's brain: fill it with your past winning reels, transcripts, brand voice, and a competitor swipe file — and every skill above generates from your proven patterns instead of a blank slate. Because it's plain local markdown, Claude reads and writes it directly via the Filesystem connector — no browser automation, no login, nothing to sync.

Connect it once in Claude Desktop:

1. Get Obsidian (free) and make a vault (just a folder). Drop in your winning reels, transcripts, and brand voice.
2. Add the Filesystem connector pointed at that vault: Settings → Developer → Edit Config, add the filesystem MCP server with your vault path. (No Claude Desktop? Make a Claude Project and upload the vault as project knowledge.)

The AI Brain skill automates the loop: say "wrap up" and Claude writes a tight Markdown note of the session into your AI Brain/ folder (with #tags + [[links]]); next session it reads back only the relevant notes — so Claude never starts from zero and you stop re-pasting the same context. Everything stays in your vault, browsable in Obsidian's graph.

The full step-by-step (give Claude a permanent memory, then run the content factory on it) is here: ootto.ai/blog →

💡 It's just local markdown you own — back it up / sync it however you like (iCloud, git, Obsidian Sync). Nothing leaves your machine except the notes you let Claude read.

Every number below is from a real run, published with the full method - not a projection.

Claude Code plugin marketplace (recommended):

/plugin marketplace add Ootto-AI/claude-content-skills
/plugin install claude-content-skills@ootto-content-skills

Manual (macOS / Linux):

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/Ootto-AI/claude-content-skills.git
bash claude-content-skills/install.sh

Both copy the skills into ~/.claude/skills/. Restart Claude Code and the skills are available.

No Claude Code? Just paste them. Every skill file is a plain prompt — open it on GitHub, copy the prompt, and paste it into claude.ai with your idea.

1. The whole thing: run /content-factory (or paste its prompt). Give it your niche, your @handle, a viral reel to model (optional), and a CTA keyword — it drives the full pipeline and hands you a finished reel + the lead loop.
2. One step: run any skill on its own (e.g. /viral-hook-writer, /reel-builder) with your topic, audience, and goal.
3. Post, then feed the winners back into your Obsidian vault (via AI Brain) so the factory compounds. Repeat 3× a day, rotating the angle.

If these save you a content sprint, drop a star — it helps other small teams find them, and tells us which skill packs to build next.

Running these by hand still means you open Claude, paste the idea, and post the reel. Ootto does the operations side for you — it connects your tools once, learns how your business works, and runs invoicing, lead follow-up, and reporting automatically, so you get your time back to actually create.

• Connects in ~3 minutes. No workflows to build.
• Self-learning. It reads your history instead of asking you to configure rules.
• Done-for-you. The skills are manual mode; Ootto is autopilot.
