AI Integration Guide

This skill provides guidance for AI feature development using the @monsoft/ai package in the YouTube Channel Analyzer project.

Package Overview

The @monsoft/ai package wraps Vercel AI SDK with Langfuse telemetry for observability.

typescript

// Available imports
import {
  coreGenerateObject,
  coreGenerateText,
  coreStreamText,
  coreStreamObject,
} from "@monsoft/ai/core";
import { models } from "@monsoft/ai/models";
import { prompts } from "@monsoft/ai/prompts";

Core Functions

coreGenerateObject - Structured Outputs

Generate structured data with Zod schema validation:

typescript

import { coreGenerateObject } from "@monsoft/ai/core";
import { z } from "zod";

const videoAnalysisSchema = z.object({
  title: z.string(),
  summary: z.string(),
  keyTopics: z.array(z.string()),
  sentiment: z.enum(["positive", "neutral", "negative"]),
  viralPotential: z.number().min(0).max(100),
  suggestedTags: z.array(z.string()),
});

const result = await coreGenerateObject({
  model: "gpt-4o",
  schema: videoAnalysisSchema,
  prompt: `Analyze this YouTube video transcript and provide insights:

  Title: ${video.title}
  Transcript: ${video.transcript}`,
  telemetry: {
    name: "video-analysis",
    metadata: { videoId: video.id },
  },
});

// result.object is typed as z.infer<typeof videoAnalysisSchema>
const analysis = result.object;

coreGenerateText - Text Generation

Generate plain text responses:

typescript

import { coreGenerateText } from "@monsoft/ai/core";

const result = await coreGenerateText({
  model: "gpt-4o-mini",
  prompt: `Write a compelling video description for: ${video.title}

  Key points to include:
  - ${keyPoints.join("\n- ")}`,
  telemetry: {
    name: "description-generation",
    metadata: { videoId: video.id },
  },
});

const description = result.text;

coreStreamText - Streaming Text

Stream text for real-time UI updates:

typescript

import { coreStreamText } from "@monsoft/ai/core";

const stream = await coreStreamText({
  model: "gpt-4o",
  prompt: `Generate a detailed content strategy for this channel: ${channel.name}`,
  telemetry: {
    name: "strategy-generation",
    metadata: { channelId: channel.id },
  },
});

// In tRPC procedure with streaming
for await (const chunk of stream.textStream) {
  // Send chunk to client
  yield chunk;
}

coreStreamObject - Streaming Structured Data

Stream structured data as it's generated:

typescript

import { coreStreamObject } from "@monsoft/ai/core";

const contentIdeasSchema = z.object({
  ideas: z.array(
    z.object({
      title: z.string(),
      description: z.string(),
      estimatedViews: z.number(),
    })
  ),
});

const stream = await coreStreamObject({
  model: "gpt-4o",
  schema: contentIdeasSchema,
  prompt: `Generate 10 video ideas for: ${channel.niche}`,
  telemetry: {
    name: "content-ideas",
    metadata: { channelId: channel.id },
  },
});

for await (const partialObject of stream.partialObjectStream) {
  // partialObject contains partially generated data
  console.log(partialObject.ideas?.length ?? 0, "ideas so far");
}

const finalResult = await stream.object;

Model Selection

typescript

import { models } from "@monsoft/ai/models";

// Available models
const model = models.openai["gpt-4o"]; // Best quality
const model = models.openai["gpt-4o-mini"]; // Fast & cheap
const model = models.google["gemini-1.5-pro"]; // Google's best
const model = models.google["gemini-1.5-flash"]; // Google fast

Model Selection Guidelines

Use Case	Recommended Model
Complex analysis	gpt-4o
Simple tasks	gpt-4o-mini
Long context	gemini-1.5-pro
Fast responses	gemini-1.5-flash
Cost-sensitive	gpt-4o-mini

Prompt Patterns

System + User Messages

typescript

const result = await coreGenerateObject({
  model: "gpt-4o",
  schema: analysisSchema,
  messages: [
    {
      role: "system",
      content: `You are a YouTube analytics expert.
        Analyze videos for viral potential and engagement.`,
    },
    {
      role: "user",
      content: `Analyze this video: ${video.title}

        Metrics:
        - Views: ${video.viewCount}
        - Likes: ${video.likeCount}
        - Comments: ${video.commentCount}`,
    },
  ],
  telemetry: { name: "video-analysis" },
});

Few-Shot Examples

typescript

const result = await coreGenerateText({
  model: "gpt-4o-mini",
  messages: [
    {
      role: "system",
      content: "Generate catchy YouTube titles based on the topic.",
    },
    { role: "user", content: "Topic: JavaScript tutorials" },
    {
      role: "assistant",
      content: "10 JavaScript Tricks That Will Blow Your Mind",
    },
    { role: "user", content: "Topic: Cooking pasta" },
    {
      role: "assistant",
      content: "The Secret to Restaurant-Quality Pasta at Home",
    },
    { role: "user", content: `Topic: ${topic}` },
  ],
  telemetry: { name: "title-generation" },
});

Telemetry & Observability

All functions include Langfuse integration:

typescript

telemetry: {
  name: "operation-name",        // Required: identifies the operation
  metadata: {                    // Optional: additional context
    userId: user.id,
    channelId: channel.id,
    feature: "video-analysis",
  },
}

View traces in Langfuse dashboard for:

•Request/response logging
•Token usage tracking
•Latency monitoring
•Error tracking
•Cost analysis

Error Handling

typescript

import { AISDKError } from "@monsoft/ai";

try {
  const result = await coreGenerateObject({
    model: "gpt-4o",
    schema: analysisSchema,
    prompt: prompt,
    telemetry: { name: "analysis" },
  });
  return result.object;
} catch (error) {
  if (error instanceof AISDKError) {
    // Handle AI-specific errors
    console.error("AI Error:", error.message);
    throw new TRPCError({
      code: "INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR",
      message: "AI analysis failed",
    });
  }
  throw error;
}

Best Practices

•Always use telemetry for observability
•Use structured outputs (coreGenerateObject) when possible
•Stream for long responses to improve UX
•Select appropriate model based on task complexity
•Handle errors gracefully with fallbacks
•Cache results when appropriate to reduce costs
