Commands

Score a video

Scores a YouTube video against the user's persona and goals. Handles async scoring automatically with polling.

bash {baseDir}/scripts/score.sh "VIDEO_ID"

The script submits the video for scoring, polls for completion (up to 60 seconds), and returns the completed score JSON. If the video was already scored, it returns the existing score immediately.

Get your feed

Returns scored videos sorted by relevance, with optional filters.

bash {baseDir}/scripts/feed.sh [--min-score N] [--verdict VERDICT] [--limit N] [--cursor N]

Options:

• --min-score N - Only return videos scored N or above (1-10)
• --verdict VERDICT - Filter by verdict (e.g., "watch", "skip")
• --limit N - Number of results per page
• --cursor N - Pagination cursor from previous response

Check usage

Shows current billing period usage stats and limits.
