Objective
Bring the Sam Aguiar Injury Lawyers YouTube Brand Videos playlist into the standalone video library and make the public page play YouTube entries correctly.
Completed
- Found the public YouTube playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLduZ7LpxtraSHP5EeP0hPsXlVZnKP6A5-
- Imported 17 playlist videos into
data/manifest.json as Brand entries with YouTube IDs, thumbnails, playlist order, and durations.
- Added YouTube-aware card, share, placeholder, lightbox embed, and source-link behavior in
assets/js/app.js.
- Updated
index.html to use a source-neutral lightbox link and updated README.md manifest docs for youtubeId.
- Deployed production with Vercel and confirmed alias: https://video-library-kappa-flax.vercel.app/
- Committed local repo change:
b228d9b Import YouTube brand videos.
Verification
- Static checks passed:
python3 -m json.tool data/manifest.json, node --check assets/js/app.js, and node --check assets/js/upload.js.
- Production manifest readback: 281 total videos, 20 Brand videos, 17 YouTube Brand playlist videos, lastUpdated 2026-06-12.
- Production rendered QA: no login gate, app display is visible, Brand tab has 20 cards, and
yt-czyALSQgR-c opens https://www.youtube.com/embed/czyALSQgR-c?autoplay=1&rel=0 with source link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czyALSQgR-c.
Notes
- The YouTube feed exposed exact published dates for 7 of the 17 videos. The remaining 10 were assigned the playlist page published date fallback of 2024-05-13 because the available playlist/feed data did not expose exact per-video dates during this run.
- The repo has no configured git remote, so the commit is local only.
Pickup Prompt
If continuing this work, verify whether the remaining 10 YouTube videos need exact upload dates from YouTube Studio or API access, then update those manifest date fields if exact dates are available.
