On YouTube, specifically

The bits YouTube makes hard, handled

The whole upload, not just the file

Title, 5,000-character description, tags and a custom thumbnail are all part of the scheduled item. The video does not go live and then wait for you to come back and finish it. On YouTube the title, tags and thumbnail are the metadata it ranks on for months — it is a search library, not a feed.

Public, unlisted or private

Decide who sees it when you schedule it. An unlisted upload for review and a public launch are the same action with a different switch.

Several channels, one queue

If your account runs more than one YouTube channel, connect each one and pick the target when you schedule. No signing out to upload somewhere else.

Agent-driven

YouTube is just a target for your agent

Install the Groniz skill and your agent — Claude Code, Codex, ChatGPT, any MCP client — learns to drive YouTube for you. You keep the judgement; it keeps the keys out of your scripts.

You Upload this video with a title and tags, and set it public.

VIDEO=$(groniz upload video.mp4 | jq -r ".path")

groniz posts:create -c "Full write-up in the description" -m "$VIDEO" \
  --settings '{"title":"How it works","type":"public","tags":[{"value":"tech","label":"Tech"}]}' \
  -s "2026-07-18T15:00:00Z" -i "youtube-id"

Title and tags are the metadata YouTube ranks on - it's a search engine, so they matter more than the minute you post.

YouTube questions

Scheduling YouTube, answered

What can I set on a scheduled YouTube upload?+
The video file, a title of up to 100 characters, a description of up to 5,000, tags, a custom thumbnail, whether it is made for kids, and whether it publishes public, unlisted or private.
Does Groniz support YouTube Shorts?+
Not as a separate format. Groniz uploads the video, title, description, tags and thumbnail; it does not set a Shorts flag or reformat your video, so treat it as a regular upload.
Is the scheduling done by YouTube or by Groniz?+
By Groniz. We hold the video in your queue and upload it at the time you chose, rather than handing YouTube a future publish date. The practical difference: the upload happens at your slot, and your subscribers are notified then.
Can I schedule something other than a video?+
No. YouTube takes exactly one video per upload — a description without a file is not a post, so Groniz stops it in the editor.
