What it does
Podcast Studio is an agent skill from revfactory/harness-100. A full production pipeline where an agent team collaborates to generate podcast episode content — planning, research, scripting, show notes, and distribution strategy — all at once. Use this skill for requests like 'plan a podcast episode,' 'write an episode script,' 'podcast scriptwriting,' 'podcast show notes,' 'episode planning,' 'interview script,' 'podcast distribution,' 'audio content planning,' and other podcast production tasks. Also supports show note or distribution package creation when an existing…
Its SKILL.md is about 2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Media & Creative, covering Podcasting. The licence is Apache-2.0.
When your agent uses it
- Requests like plan a podcast episode
- Write an episode script
- Podcast scriptwriting
- Podcast show notes
Example prompts
- “plan a podcast episode,”
- “write an episode script,”
- “podcast scriptwriting,”
- “/podcast-studio”
Workflow steps
3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8e8d35c. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Podcast Studio loads about 2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 179 tokens; SKILL.md has 784 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

- A full production pipeline where an agent team collaborates to generate podcast episode content — planning, research, scripting, show notes, and distribution strategy — all at once. Use this skill for requests like 'plan a podcast episode,' 'write an episode script,' 'podcast scriptwriting,' 'podcast show notes,' 'episode planning,' 'interview script,' 'podcast distribution,' 'audio content planning,' and other podcast production tasks. Also supports show note or distribution package creation when an existing script or research is provided. Note: actual audio recording/editing (Audacity, GarageBand), podcast hosting API integration, and RSS feed technical setup are outside this skill's scope.
Podcast Studio — Full Podcast Production Pipeline
An agent team collaborates to produce podcast episodes through the pipeline of planning → research → scripting → show notes → distribution, all at once.
Execution Mode
Agent Team — 5 members communicate directly via SendMessage and cross-validate each other's work.
Agent Roster
| Agent | File | Role | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| researcher | .claude/agents/researcher.md | Topic investigation, fact-checking, talking point extraction | general-purpose |
| scriptwriter | .claude/agents/scriptwriter.md | Episode script writing, dialogue cue insertion | general-purpose |
| shownote-editor | .claude/agents/shownote-editor.md | Show notes, timestamps, reference compilation | general-purpose |
| distribution-manager | .claude/agents/distribution-manager.md | Platform-specific metadata, promotional copy | general-purpose |
| production-reviewer | .claude/agents/production-reviewer.md | Cross-validation, consistency checks | general-purpose |
Workflow
Phase 1: Preparation (Performed directly by the orchestrator)
- Extract from user input:
- Topic/Keywords: The subject the episode will cover
- Podcast Info (optional): Show tone, listener base, existing episode direction
- Episode Type (optional): Solo/Interview/Panel/Storytelling/Q&A
- Guest Info (optional): Guest name, area of expertise
- Constraints (optional): Episode length, specific requirements
- Existing Files (optional): Scripts, research materials, etc. provided by the user
- Create the
_workspace/directory at the project root - Organize the input and save it as
_workspace/00_input.md - If existing files are provided, copy them to
_workspace/and skip the corresponding phase - Determine the execution mode based on request scope (see "Scope-Based Modes" below)
Phase 2: Team Assembly and Execution
Assemble the team and assign tasks. Task dependencies are as follows:
| Order | Task | Owner | Depends On | Deliverable |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Topic research | researcher | None | _workspace/01_research_brief.md |
| 2 | Script writing | scriptwriter | Task 1 | _workspace/02_script.md |
| 3a | Show notes | shownote-editor | Tasks 1, 2 | _workspace/03_shownotes.md |
| 3b | Distribution package | distribution-manager | Tasks 1, 2 | _workspace/04_distribution_package.md |
| 4 | Production review | production-reviewer | Tasks 2, 3a, 3b | _workspace/05_review_report.md |
Tasks 3a (show notes) and 3b (distribution) run in parallel. Both depend on Task 2 (script), so they can start simultaneously once the script is complete.
Inter-agent communication flow:
- researcher complete → deliver talking points & facts to scriptwriter, references to shownote-editor, trending keywords to distribution-manager
- scriptwriter complete → deliver segment timecodes to shownote-editor, key quotes to distribution-manager
- shownote-editor complete → deliver episode summary & quotes to distribution-manager
- reviewer cross-validates all deliverables. On 🔴 Must Fix: request revision from the responsible agent → rework → re-validate (up to 2 rounds)
Phase 3: Integration and Final Deliverables
Compile the final deliverables based on the reviewer's report:
- Verify all files in
_workspace/ - Confirm all 🔴 Must Fix items from the review report have been addressed
- Report the final summary to the user:
- Research Brief —
01_research_brief.md - Episode Script —
02_script.md - Show Notes —
03_shownotes.md - Distribution Package —
04_distribution_package.md - Review Report —
05_review_report.md
- Research Brief —
Scope-Based Modes
Adjust the agents deployed based on the scope of the user's request:
| User Request Pattern | Execution Mode | Agents Deployed |
|---|---|---|
| "Plan a podcast episode," "full production" | Full Pipeline | All 5 |
| "Just write the script," "script only" | Script Mode | researcher + scriptwriter + reviewer |
| "Create show notes from this script" (existing file) | Show Notes Mode | shownote-editor + reviewer |
| "Create promo copy for this episode" (existing script) | Distribution Mode | distribution-manager + reviewer |
| "Review this script" | Review Mode | reviewer only |
Using Existing Files: If the user provides a script, research materials, or other existing files, copy them to the appropriate numbered position in _workspace/ and skip that phase's agent.

Data Transfer Protocol
| Strategy | Method | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| File-based | _workspace/ directory | Primary deliverable storage and sharing |
| Message-based | SendMessage | Real-time key information transfer, revision requests |
| Task-based | TaskCreate/TaskUpdate | Progress tracking, dependency management |
File naming convention: {order}_{deliverable}.{extension}
Error Handling
| Error Type | Strategy |
|---|---|
| Web search failure | Researcher works from general knowledge, report notes "data limitation" |
| Guest info unavailable | Provide generic interview framework, request guest info from user |
| Agent failure | Retry once → if still failing, proceed without that deliverable, note omission in review report |
| 🔴 found in review | Request revision from responsible agent → rework → re-validate (up to 2 rounds) |
Test Scenarios
Happy Path
Prompt: "Plan a 30-minute interview podcast episode on AI ethics. The guest is an AI researcher" Expected Results:
- Research: 5+ latest AI ethics issues, guest background, 5 talking points
- Script: 30-minute length (~4,500 words in English), opening + 3–4 segments + closing, guest questions included
- Show notes: Timestamps, reference links, key quotes
- Distribution: Platform-specific descriptions, 3 social media copy variants, promotional calendar
- Review: All consistency matrix items verified
Existing File Flow
Prompt: "Create show notes and a distribution package from this script" + script file attached Expected Results:
- Existing script copied to
_workspace/02_script.md - Show Notes Mode + Distribution Mode merged: shownote-editor + distribution-manager + reviewer deployed
- researcher, scriptwriter skipped
Error Flow
Prompt: "Just write a podcast script quickly, any topic" Expected Results:
- Switch to Script Mode (researcher + scriptwriter + reviewer)
- Topic is unclear, so researcher proposes 3 trending topics before proceeding
- Review report notes "show notes/distribution package not generated"
Agent Extension Skills
Each agent leverages the following extension skills to enhance deliverable quality:
| Agent | Extension Skill | Knowledge Provided |
|---|---|---|
| scriptwriter | /interview-techniques | DEPTH question model, emotional arc, type-specific question patterns |
| scriptwriter, shownote-editor | /audio-storytelling | 5 narrative arcs, BPM pacing, 12 audio devices |
| distribution-manager | /podcast-growth | Platform-specific metadata optimization, 7-day promotional calendar, HIKE copy formula |
