Does this skill require any external tools?

Yes, you must have yt-dlp installed on your system via pip or Homebrew for the skill to download and process transcripts.

Can I use this to compare a video's advice to my own code?

Yes, the skill is specifically designed to highlight differences between the video content and your current implementation, providing actionable recommendations for your project.

How does it handle very long videos or lectures?

For videos over 45 minutes, the skill splits the transcript into logical chunks, generates segment summaries, and provides a final synthesis to ensure accuracy and token efficiency.

Can it analyze videos that don't have transcripts?

If a video lacks captions, the skill will notify you and offer alternative approaches, such as analyzing the video description or comments for context.
