Does this skill require a YouTube API key?

No, this skill uses helper scripts to extract available transcripts directly from the URL without requiring individual API credentials.

Can I ask questions about specific parts of a video?

Yes, you can provide a specific question along with the URL, and Claude will analyze the transcript to provide a detailed answer with timestamp references.

Does the transcript remain in the chat history?

Yes, once the transcript is loaded, it stays in Claude's context, allowing you to ask follow-up questions naturally without re-running the command.

Which YouTube URL formats are supported?

It supports standard watch links, shortened youtu.be links, YouTube Shorts, and embedded video URLs.

What happens if a video has no transcript available?
