content-vault

14 Claude Code skills + a pre-configured Obsidian vault. Same setup we use to run our content.

Free. MIT. Fork it.

researcher            repurpose             lead-magnet-creator
linkedin-copywriter   x-copywriter          long-form              newsletter-writer
youtube-script        youtube-description   youtube-thumbnail      youtube-publisher
graphics-designer     launch-video          video-use

Two ways to run this

Oxygen (hosted). Team setup, one-click import, integrations already wired up. oxygen-agent.com

Claude Code (local). Clone the repo into your skills folder.

git clone https://github.com/timscheuerai/content-vault.git ~/.claude/skills/content-vault

Then open that folder in Obsidian — it ships a pre-configured vault (Kanban board, graph, backlinks, search; no plugin setup). That's where your content lives and is tracked. See The Obsidian side.

Then in Claude Code:

/linkedin-copywriter   draft a post about my Q2 launch
/researcher            find 10 ideas for next week
/repurpose             turn yesterday's webinar into LinkedIn + X

The setup that actually matters

Without this step the writer skills sound like generic AI. Run it once and you're done.

Connect LinkedIn

Oxygen: already done.

Claude Code: plug in Unipile or whatever you use.

export UNIPILE_DSN=...
export UNIPILE_API_KEY=...
export UNIPILE_ACCOUNT_ID=...

Tell Claude to fill your corpus

Pull my last 20 LinkedIn posts via Unipile, sort by reactions, write them into skills/linkedin-copywriter/corpus.md using the format in corpus.md.example.

Claude pulls, sorts, writes the file. From the next draft, linkedin-copywriter writes in your voice.

Same for X

export X_BEARER_TOKEN=...

Pull my last 30 tweets, originals only, sort by engagement, write them into skills/x-copywriter/corpus.md.

Done. Skills are personalized.

Video + YouTube skills (optional)

Only if you use them. Each has a ## SETUP block in its SKILL.md.

export ELEVENLABS_API_KEY=...   # youtube-description (transcripts), video-use
pip install rembg               # youtube-thumbnail (face cutouts)

youtube-publisher talks to your own channel, so it needs your Google Cloud project + a YouTube Data API OAuth client (client_secrets.json). Walkthrough is in the skill.

What's in the vault

linkedin-copywriter. Drafts LinkedIn posts in your voice. Hook frameworks, body shapes, CTA patterns, AI-slop blacklist.

x-copywriter. Drafts X tweets and threads. Different game than LinkedIn. The skill teaches you the platform as it drafts.

youtube-script. Spoken scripts for YouTube longs, shorts, talking-head clips. Timed beats with B-roll cues.

youtube-description. Transcribes a finished cut (ElevenLabs Scribe), writes a 2-sentence description, your fixed CTA, and chapter timestamps.

youtube-thumbnail. Two-face interview/podcast thumbnails. rembg cutouts, one highlight word, 1280×720 dark + light. Encodes verified 2026 CTR research.

youtube-publisher. Uploads a video or a whole numbered series via the YouTube Data API. Titles, descriptions, thumbnails, ordered playlist. Resumable, idempotent.

long-form. Newsletter issue, blog, Substack. Outline first, prose second.

newsletter-writer. Lifecycle + onboarding emails and broadcasts. Same voice as your posts, rendered to your email template, optional push to Resend.

lead-magnet-creator. Builds free assets in 10 formats. Notion, PDF, Sheet, GitHub starter, GPT, web tool, video. The skill that built this vault.

repurpose. One master piece (webinar, transcript, post) into N channel variants. Hub-and-spoke.

researcher. 3 modes. What's hot in your space. What's working for you. What customers said in interviews.

graphics-designer. On-brand graphics. HTML to PNG via headless Chrome.

launch-video. 30-60s motion graphics. Remotion + ElevenLabs.

video-use. Edit any video by chat. Cuts on word boundaries, grades, burns subtitles. Vendored from browser-use/video-use.

The Obsidian side

Skills produce content. Your Obsidian vault tracks it — no external tool, no sync, every piece a markdown file you own.

Open this folder in Obsidian (it ships pre-configured) and content/Content.base gives you a Kanban board grouped by status (Idea → Drafting → Review → Published → Backlog), plus table and card views. It's a native Obsidian Base — no community plugin needed. Same schema the Notion DB had, now as frontmatter on files you own:

title · status · pillar · format · channel · author · publish · drive

New drafts land in content/posts/. Want fast semantic + keyword search over your whole back catalogue (and for agents, via mcp__qmd__*)? Run ./scripts/qmd-setup.sh once, then qmd query "...".
