Paste a link and ask for a summary, study notes, key quotes, a translation, or answers to your questions, all grounded in what the video actually says.\n\nWhat you can do:\n- Chat with a YouTube video: ask questions and get answers based on its real transcript.\n- Students: turn lectures, tutorials, and courses into study notes, summaries, and flashcards.\n- Researchers and journalists: pull exact quotes, compare what different speakers said, and research a topic across many videos.\n- Creators and marketers: see what a channel posted recently, find videos on a topic, and review a creator's whole catalogue.\n- Work through a playlist or course video by video.\n- AI agents and Codex: search YouTube and process channels and playlists in bulk.\n- Developers: ask Codex to add YouTube transcripts to your app, script, or data pipeline. The bundled YouTube Transcript API skill writes working Python, JavaScript, or curl code against the getyoutubetranscript.com REST API, with pagination, retries, and error handling.\n\nWorks with regular videos, Shorts, and live stream links, in any caption language the video offers.\n\nLimitations: it reads a video's captions, so videos without captions cannot be transcribed, and transcripts come as one block of text by default, with per-line timestamps available on request. It does not download video or audio, post comments, or change anything on YouTube. Requires a getyoutubetranscript.com account.",
