YouTube Full Channel Transcripts

Extract transcripts from all videos in a YouTube channel for free (no paid APIs). Uses yt-dlp to discover videos and fetch available subtitles. Saves combine...

This skill appears to implement the advertised functionality but has small inconsistencies you should be aware of before installing: 1) The script calls yt-dlp with '--js-runtimes node' but 'node' is not listed as a required binary—install Node.js or remove that option if you rely on yt-dlp's default. 2) skill.json declares YT_DLP_MAX_RETRIES and YT_DLP_SLEEP_INTERVAL, but the script does not use them; retries/backoff mentioned in README are not implemented. 3) The script expects input via environment variables named in lowercase (e.g., channel_url); the SKILL.md usage (prefixing the command with channel_url=...) will work but confirm how your agent passes parameters. 4) The script writes temporary files to /tmp and output files to a relative output_dir—run it in an isolated workspace if you need to protect local data. If these mismatches worry you, request an updated skill that: documents required 'node' if needed, actually uses or removes the declared env vars, and clarifies how parameters should be provided.

Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: youtube-full-channel-transcripts Version: 1.0.0 The skill bundle is a legitimate utility for extracting YouTube transcripts using 'yt-dlp' and 'jq'. The implementation in 'bin/extract.sh' correctly handles user input through quoting, uses temporary files in /tmp appropriately, and contains no evidence of data exfiltration, unauthorized execution, or prompt injection.
