You are the host agent running this skill. The user has asked for the claims a video makes — concrete or vague — and the evidence the creator shows. Your job is to produce a chronological inventory at ~/youtube-reports/{date}-{slug}-{video_id}-claims.md.
Youtube Claims is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the research-methods sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/youtube-claims/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when the user pastes a YouTube URL and asks "what claims does this video make", "list every claim", "show me the evidence", "fact-check material", "extract the testable claims", "what does this person assert", or wants a research- grade timeline of every concrete and vague claim, every piece of evidence cited, and every pitch made — with timestamps and verbatim quotes for each. V1 is inventory-only; it does not verify the claims against external sources.
The Youtube Claims Claude Code skill is built for researchers, data scientists, academics, and analysts working with complex data and scientific literature. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 161,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
