Downloads YouTube video comments, filters to unique authors, and randomly selects one comment to return.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Random Comment Picker

This skill downloads comments from a YouTube video, filters them to keep only comments with unique authors (first occurrence wins), and randomly selects one comment to return with author and text.

## Skill Details

- **Name**: yt-random-comment-picker
- **Version**: 1.0.0
- **Description**: Downloads YouTube video comments, filters to unique authors, and randomly selects one comment to return.

## Usage

```bash
yt-random-comment-picker <youtube_video_url>
```

### Example

```bash
yt-random-comment-picker https://youtu.be/VIDEO_ID
```

## How It Works

1. **Download comments**: Uses `yt-dlp` to fetch the comment section from the specified YouTube video URL
2. **Extract top-level comments**: Filters to keep only top-level comments (not replies/thread comments)
3. **Filter unique authors**: Keeps only the first comment from each unique author (subsequent duplicates are removed)
4. **Random selection**: Uses Python's `random.choice()` to select one comment from the filtered list
5. **Output**: Displays the selected comment with author and text, plus JSON output for programmatic use

## Requirements

- `yt-dlp` must be installed and available in PATH

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add larchanka/skills/yt-random-comment-picker@sha256:7ed12efc69213944

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
