INDIVIDUAL MCP TOOL
search_youtube_videos
Searches YouTube for a keyword and returns the top videos with views, subscribers, duration and publish date as YouTube gives them, plus two values uplika calculates from them that are not YouTube metrics (dataNotes says so): the views-to-subscribers ratio (above 1 means the title and topic pulled more people than the channel has) and Shorts or long-form (60 seconds or less counts as a Short).
