YouTube Long Video Transcript

YouTube long video (>1 hour) full verbatim transcription and translation workflow. Use when user needs to (1) Extract subtitles from YouTube videos, (2) Translate English transcripts to Chinese, (3) Handle long videos that exceed session limits, (4) Process DownSub API responses and generate formatted documents.

Do not install blindly. Key points to check before proceeding: - The SKILL.md requires a DownSub API key yet the registry metadata lists no credentials — confirm where/how you'll provide the API key and avoid pasting secrets into plain instructions. Prefer storing keys in your platform's secrets store. - The document embeds an Authorization header with a bearer token (starts with 'AIza...'); treat this as suspicious (possible accidental leak or placeholder). Do not assume the embedded token is valid or safe to use. - Verify that DownSub actually requires the type of key described and that the endpoint and Authorization scheme are legitimate (consider using official YouTube APIs or known services instead). - Note the skill asks the agent to spawn sub-agents and read/write transcript files; ensure you trust the agent runtime with those files and do not allow it to access unrelated files or credentials. - Clarify the contradictory instructions around 'zhiyan' and the recommended workflow (the SKILL.md has inconsistent guidance). - If you proceed, prefer giving the minimum required credential scoped appropriately, test with a small non-sensitive video, and monitor any network requests the agent makes.

Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: ytb-transcript-long Version: 1.0.0 The skill bundle is designed for YouTube video transcription and translation, utilizing external APIs and tools. All network access to `downsub.com`, file system operations for saving transcripts, and the use of the `zhiyan` tool for online document generation are directly aligned with the stated purpose. The instructions for the AI agent, including the sub-agent prompt, are specific, constrained, and include safety checks (e.g., language verification), showing no evidence of prompt injection or malicious intent. The hardcoded API key in `SKILL.md` is presented as an example for configuration, not for direct use by the agent, which is instructed to verify a configured key.
