Does it work with videos that don't have manual subtitles?

Yes, the skill is configured to automatically fall back to auto-generated subtitles if manual ones are not provided by the creator.

Does this skill download large video files to my machine?

No, the skill uses the --skip-download flag to only fetch the text-based transcript and metadata, saving both time and bandwidth.

Do I need to install external software to use this skill?

Yes, this skill requires yt-dlp to be installed on your system. You can install it via 'pip install yt-dlp' or 'brew install yt-dlp'.

How does it handle very long videos or keynote presentations?

For videos exceeding 45 minutes, the skill uses intelligent chunking to process the transcript in segments, ensuring high-quality summaries without hitting token limits.

学习与文档

Extracts and analyzes YouTube video transcripts to provide actionable insights, technical concepts, and project-specific recommendations.

关于

The YouTube Transcript Analyzer enables Claude to programmatically download, chunk, and synthesize video content using yt-dlp. It is designed to help developers and researchers extract key insights from technical tutorials, conference talks, and presentations without watching the full video. The skill intelligently handles long-form content by splitting transcripts into manageable segments, comparing video concepts directly against your local codebase, and providing timestamped summaries that relate directly to your current project goals.
