A script-backed Skill to maintain a list of tracked YouTube channels and periodically check for new uploads.
Critical reliability fix — script now sends Telegram directly, no LLM relay needed.
notify sends Telegram directly: Script calls Telegram Bot API itself, no LLM relay~/.openclaw/openclaw.json: No extra config needednotify marked videos as seen immediately upon detection,
but Telegram sending was done by LLM. If LLM failed (rate limit/timeout), videos were
lost forever — marked as seen but never sent. v3.1.0 fixes this completely.Major performance optimization — parallel fetching, ~10x faster.
notify command: Outputs Telegram-ready formatted messages (📺🎬🔗 format)isolated agentTurn: LLM → exec script → LLM interpret → sendFix: Added automatic proxy support for YouTube RSS feeds.
HTTPS_PROXY / HTTP_PROXY env vars, falls back to http://127.0.0.1:10808fetch() API calls with curl via execSync for consistent proxy routingBreaking change: Now uses YouTube RSS feeds by default - no API key needed, no quota limits!
add, it will baseline (mark the channel's current latest videos as seen)check, prints only new videos since last run with channel name, title, video URLnotify, prints Telegram-formatted output (📺🎬🔗) for direct cron useAll state is stored inside this Skill folder:
state/config.json (tracked channels, no API key needed for RSS mode)state/seen.json (dedupe: already announced video ids, keeps up to 2000)Run from this skill directory:
# RSS mode (recommended, no API key needed)
node scripts/youtube-tracker-rss.js add "https://www.youtube.com/@veritasium"
node scripts/youtube-tracker-rss.js add "@veritasium"
node scripts/youtube-tracker-rss.js add "UCddiUEpeqJcYeBxX1IVBKvQ"
node scripts/youtube-tracker-rss.js list
node scripts/youtube-tracker-rss.js remove "UCddiUEpeqJcYeBxX1IVBKvQ"
node scripts/youtube-tracker-rss.js check # original output format
node scripts/youtube-tracker-rss.js notify # Auto-sends to Telegram, marks seen on success
# API mode (legacy, requires API key)
node scripts/youtube-tracker.js set-key "YOUR_YT_API_KEY"
node scripts/youtube-tracker.js validate-key
node scripts/youtube-tracker.js add "@veritasium"
node scripts/youtube-tracker.js check
Uses notify command + systemEvent cron target — no LLM needed per check.
Cron payload (isolated agentTurn):
Execute `cd /Users/m./Documents/QNSZ/project/skills/wlzh-youtube-tracker && node scripts/youtube-tracker-rss.js notify`
Script auto-sends new videos to Telegram topic 1016 via Bot API.
Only marks seen on successful send — failed videos retry next cycle.
stdout 有内容 → 逐条发到 Telegram
stdout 为空 → HEARTBEAT_OK
Previous approach using isolated LLM session. Higher overhead, subject to API rate limits.
Legacy (agentTurn with LLM relay — not recommended):
Run `cd .../wlzh-youtube-tracker && node scripts/youtube-tracker-rss.js check`
Interpret stdout, send if "发现" found

--- name: wlzh-youtube-tracker description: "Track YouTube channels for new uploads. Supports both RSS mode (no API key needed, unlimited quota) and API mode. Use when: add/remove/list tracked YouTube channels, check for new videos, or run scheduled YouTube channel monitoring." version: "3.1.0" --- # wlzh-youtube-tracker A script-backed Skill to maintain a list of tracked YouTube channels and periodically check for **new uploads**. ## v3.1.0 - Self-contained Telegram Sending (2026-06-06) **Critical reliability fix** — script now sends Telegram directly, no LLM relay needed. ### Changes - **`notify` sends Telegram directly**: Script calls Telegram Bot API itself, no LLM relay - **Atomic seen marking**: Only marks video as seen AFTER successful Telegram send - **Auto-retry on failure**: Failed sends stay "unseen", next cron cycle retries automatically - **Reads bot token from `~/.openclaw/openclaw.json`**: No extra config needed - **Fallback mode**: If bot token unavailable, falls back to stdout output for LLM relay ### Bug fix - v3.0.0 had a critical bug: `notify` marked videos as seen immediately upon detection, but Telegram sending was done by LLM. If LLM failed (rate limit/timeout), videos were lost forever — marked as seen but never sent. v3.1.0 fixes this completely. --- ## v3.0.0 - Parallel Fetching + Notify Mode (2026-06-06) **Major performance optimization** — parallel fetching, ~10x faster. ### Changes - **Parallel HTTP fetching**: All channels now fetch concurrently (15 parallel curl processes) - **~10x faster**: 55 channels check in ~4-5 seconds (was ~45 seconds with serial curl) - **New `notify` command**: Outputs Telegram-ready formatted messages (📺🎬🔗 format) --- - Eliminates timeout failures (the #2 failure cause) - No more ~24k tokens consumed per check - Success rate expected: ~99% (was ~64%) ### Why this matters - Previous cron used `isolated agentTurn`: LLM → exec script → LLM interpret → send - Each run consumed 24-95k tokens and took 45-180s, frequently hitting API rate limits - New approach: systemEvent → exec script (4s) → send if needed → done ## v2.1.0 - Proxy Support (2026-06-05) **Fix**: Added automatic proxy support for YouTube RSS feeds. - YouTube is inaccessible from China without proxy; all HTTP requests now route through proxy - Auto-detects proxy from `HTTPS_PROXY` / `HTTP_PROXY` env vars, falls back to `http://127.0.0.1:10808` - Replaced `fetch()` API calls with `curl` via `execSync` for consistent proxy routing ## v2.0.0 - RSS Mode (2026-03-17) **Breaking change**: Now uses YouTube RSS feeds by default - **no API key needed, no quota limits!** ## What it does - Add / remove / list tracked channels (input can be URL / @handle / channelId) - On `add`, it will **baseline** (mark the channel's current latest videos as seen) - On `check`, prints only **new videos since last run** with channel name, title, video URL - On `notify`, prints Telegram-formatted output (📺🎬🔗) for direct cron use ## Data files All state is stored inside this Skill folder: - `state/config.json` (tracked channels, no API key needed for RSS mode) - `state/seen.json` (dedupe: already announced video ids, keeps up to 2000) ## Commands Run from this skill directory: ```bash # RSS mode (recommended, no API key needed) node scripts/youtube-tracker-rss.js add "https://www.youtube.com/@veritasium" node scripts/youtube-tracker-rss.js add "@veritasium" node scripts/youtube-tracker-rss.js add "UCddiUEpeqJcYeBxX1IVBKvQ" node scripts/youtube-tracker-rss.js list node scripts/youtube-tracker-rss.js remove "UCddiUEpeqJcYeBxX1IVBKvQ" node scripts/youtube-tracker-rss.js check # original output format node scripts/youtube-tracker-rss.js notify # Auto-sends to Telegram, marks seen on success # API mode (legacy, requires API key) node scripts/youtube-tracker.js set-key "YOUR_YT_API_KEY" node scripts/youtube-tracker.js validate-key node scripts/youtube-tracker.js add "@veritasium" node scripts/youtube-tracker.js check ``` ## Cron usage ### Recommended (v3.0+): systemEvent mode Uses `notify` command + `systemEvent` cron target — no LLM needed per check. ``` Cron payload (isolated agentTurn): Execute `cd /Users/m./Documents/QNSZ/project/skills/wlzh-youtube-tracker && node scripts/youtube-tracker-rss.js notify` Script auto-sends new videos to Telegram topic 1016 via Bot API. Only marks seen on successful send — failed videos retry next cycle. stdout 有内容 → 逐条发到 Telegram stdout 为空 → HEARTBEAT_OK ``` ### Legacy: agentTurn mode Previous approach using isolated LLM session. Higher overhead, subject to API rate limits. ``` Legacy (agentTurn with LLM relay — not recommended): Run `cd .../wlzh-youtube-tracker && node scripts/youtube-tracker-rss.js check` Interpret stdout, send if "发现" found ``` ## Output formats ### `check` command (original) ``` 频道:最佳拍档 标题:Anthropic呼吁按下AI暂停键? 链接:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxx ``` ### `notify` command (Telegram-ready) ``` 📺 最佳拍档 🎬 Anthropic呼吁按下AI暂停键? 🔗 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxx ``` ## Migration from v1.x / v2.x - Existing `state/config.json` and `state/seen.json` are fully compatible - `check` command output unchanged (backwards compatible) - New `notify` command is optional, designed for cron use
