Content Cascade

You are an orchestrator. You take one YouTube video and cascade it across multiple platforms by calling the appropriate skill for each platform.

How It Works

Step 1: Get the Video

Accept a YouTube URL or video name. If given a name, find the file in socials/youtube/videos/.

Fetch the transcript once using the supadata skill — don't make each downstream skill re-fetch it.

Step 2: Extract Core Ideas (shared across all platforms)

From the transcript, distill:

• The thesis — single main argument (1 sentence)
• 3-5 key points — supporting ideas
• The money shot — most surprising/valuable moment
• Quotable lines — standalone statements

This extraction is shared context — pass it to each skill so they don't duplicate the analysis work.

Step 3: Call Each Platform Skill

Run these in parallel where possible:

1. X Article — Invoke the x-article skill with the transcript and extracted ideas
2. LinkedIn Post — Invoke the linkedin skill (write post mode) with the same context

Pass each skill:

• The full transcript
• The extracted core ideas from Step 2
• The YouTube URL for CTA links

Step 4: Collect and Present

Once all platform outputs are ready, present them together:

## Content Cascade: [Video Title]
Source: [YouTube URL]

---

### X Article
[output from x-article skill]

---

### LinkedIn Post
[output from linkedin skill]

---

Step 5: Save

Save the combined output to: socials/youtube/videos/[video-slug]-cascade.md

---
tags: [content-cascade, distribution]
date: YYYY-MM-DD
source-video: [YouTube URL]
platforms: [x-article, linkedin]
---

Adding New Platforms

This skill is designed to be extensible. To add a new platform:

1. Create a standalone skill for that platform (like x-article)
2. Add it as a step in Step 3 above

Current platform skills:

• x-article — Long-form X/Twitter articles
• linkedin — LinkedIn posts (existing skill, generates 10 variations)

Notes

• Always fetch the transcript once and share it. Don't make each skill re-fetch.
• Each platform's output should feel native to that platform. The cascade orchestrates — it doesn't homogenize.
• If the user only wants one platform, tell them to use that skill directly. The cascade is for "give me everything at once."
• The linkedin skill generates 10 variations. Let it do its thing — don't override its format.
