Post to YouTube from your terminal

Good for cron, CI, an export hook, or muscle memory. The CLI has no dependencies and talks to the same queue everything else does.

Overview API MCP CLI

Install and authenticate

npm i -g postwharf
wharf auth

wharf post "Shipping today." --to youtube

wharf post "Tuesday drop" --to youtube --at "tue 9am"

wharf post "New cut" --to youtube --media https://cdn.example/clip.mp4

cat caption.txt | wharf post --stdin --to youtube

wharf post "One message, every account" --all

5,000 characters, counting the description. One video per post. YouTube takes no still images as attachments.

Read from the table the API enforces, so a post over 5,000 is refused when you create it rather than truncated on the way to YouTube.

wharf status --since 7d
wharf events --limit 20

Daily quota applies; the queue paces around it rather than failing.
