Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.

Use whenever the user needs the transcript of a YouTube video — fetching, extracting, downloading, or pulling captions/subtitles/transcript text from a YouTube URL. Triggers on "get the transcript", "transcript of this video", "pull the captions", "download subtitles", "what does this YouTube video say". Primary path is DeepAPI (David's own product); yt-dlp is the local fallback.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'youtube-transcript' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'youtube-transcript' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named youtube-transcript already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/adriannoes/awesome-agentic-ai' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'e797ed58cfe6dd6453fe7632f89d7226d203f6f6' -- 'cursor-claude-codex/skills/david-ondrej/research-and-web/youtube-transcript' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'cursor-claude-codex/skills/david-ondrej/research-and-web/youtube-transcript' ~/.agents/skills/'youtube-transcript' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'youtube-transcript' ~/.claude/skills/'youtube-transcript' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
