YouTube Analytics

Track your YouTube channel performance β€” views, watch time, subscriber growth, and per-video engagement. Powered by Boring.

Security & Data Handling

  • MCP link is a credential: Your MCP Server URL (https://boring.aiagent-me.com/mcp/t/xxxxx...) contains an embedded authentication token. Treat it like a password β€” do not share it publicly.
  • Token scope: The embedded token is read-only for analytics. It can only fetch performance metrics and account metadata. It cannot publish, delete, or modify any content on your social media accounts.
  • Token storage: The token is stored server-side in Boring's database (MongoDB on DigitalOcean). It is never written to your local filesystem. You can regenerate or revoke it anytime at boring.aiagent-me.com/settings.
  • Data flow: Analytics queries are sent from Boring's server (Google Cloud, us-central1) to the platform's API on your behalf. Only performance metrics are retrieved β€” no content is uploaded or modified.
  • No local credentials: No local API keys, environment variables, or secrets are needed. All auth is embedded in the MCP link.
  • Third-party service: This skill relies on Boring, an open-source social media management tool. Source code: github.com/snoopyrain.
  • Prerequisites

    1. Sign up at boring.aiagent-me.com with Google 2. Connect YouTube β€” select the target channel during OAuth 3. Get your MCP link: Go to Settings β†’ copy your MCP Server URL (contains your auth token β€” treat it like a password) 4. Add to Claude: Paste the MCP link as a Connector β€” no install, no API key needed
