YouTube MCP integration
Searches videos and channel stats, uploads and updates videos, curates playlists, and replies to or moderates comments.
47actions available
Three actions you can hand over today
Every action runs live through MCP. Nothing to build, nothing to maintain.
Post comment on video
Lyro posts a top-level comment on a YouTube video on someone's behalf. A channel owner gets a reply published instantly instead of switching over to YouTube.
List comment threads
Lyro retrieves the comment threads on a YouTube video or channel. A creator sees what viewers are saying without opening YouTube's comment section directly.
Insert comment reply
Lyro replies to an existing comment on a YouTube video. A viewer's question gets answered right in the thread instead of going unanswered.
How businesses use YouTube + Lyro
Each card is one request a support team gets, and the YouTube actions Lyro runs to close it.
Point someone at the video that answers them
Lyro searches for the clip that covers the question, pulls the details on the candidates, and checks the channel's numbers, so a customer gets the right walkthrough rather than a channel link.
Search YoutubeVideo Details BatchGet Channel StatisticsPublish a video with its metadata complete
Lyro uploads the file, writes the title, description, and tags onto it, and sets the thumbnail, so a release does not sit unlisted waiting for someone to finish the details.
Upload VideoUpdate VideoUpdate ThumbnailKeep the library organized
Lyro creates the playlist a new series needs, adds videos to it, and reorders or retitles the entries later, so viewers arriving at the channel find a sequence rather than a pile.
Create PlaylistAdd Video To PlaylistUpdate Playlist ItemWork the comment queue
Lyro reads the comment threads on a video, posts the reply that answers a recurring question, and holds or rejects anything that needs moderation before it is public.

How it works
Get started in 3 steps
Connect once, then just ask. There is no workflow builder to learn and nothing to maintain — Lyro reads the YouTube actions it has and picks the ones a request needs.
- 01
Connect YouTube
Authorize the YouTube account your team already uses — one consent screen, no API keys, no mapping tables. Lyro can only do what you granted that account, and you can disconnect it at any time.
- 02
Tell your agent what you need
Describe the job the way you would hand it to a teammate. Lyro maps it to the YouTube actions that close it and chains as many as the request needs.
- 03
Watch it work
The agent runs the actions inside the conversation the customer is already in, so nobody copies data between tabs and your team can take over at any point.

Everything else about YouTube
Setup, permissions, and the limits of what Lyro can do inside YouTube.
Yes, where captions exist. List Captions shows the tracks on a video and Download YouTube Caption Track returns the text, so Lyro can quote the relevant passage and cite the video instead of telling a customer to watch fifteen minutes. Update Caption Track lets a corrected transcript be pushed back.
