Download public Facebook videos (a watch link, video permalink, reel, fb.watch short link, or a Page's videos tab) to a local folder, named by upload datetime (YYYY-MM-DD_HH-MM-SS.mp4). Single-engine yt-dlp + ffmpeg; uses --cookies-from-browser for login-walled public videos. Use when the user asks to download a Facebook video or reel, save an FB video locally, grab a video from a facebook.com/watch or fb.watch link, or batch-download a Page's videos.
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
# Facebook Videos Downloader Download a public Facebook video (or a Page's videos) into a user-specified folder, named by upload datetime. **Facebook is a single-engine `yt-dlp` target — like `youtube-videos`, not `instagram-videos`.** No browser mirror and no third-party fallback API. The one real difference: **Facebook is the most login-walled platform**, so the primary resilience path is `--cookies-from-browser` (your own logged-in session), NOT a second engine. ## Inputs | Parameter | Required | Example | |---|---|---| | Facebook URL (watch, video, reel, fb.watch, or Page videos tab) | yes | `https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=10154325234224113` | | Output directory | yes | `out/facebook` | | Max height | no | `1080` (default) | | Timezone for filenames | no | `America/Santiago` (default) | Accepted URL shapes (the script handles them via yt-dlp): - Watch link: `facebook.com/watch/?v=ID` → single video - Video permalink: `facebook.com/<page>/videos/ID/` → single video - Reel: `facebook.com/reel/ID` → single video - Share short link: `fb.watch/xxxx/` → yt-dlp resolves it - Page videos tab: `facebook.com/<page>/videos` → a playlist (use `--max 1` for just the first) …

How to install
mdr add puntorigen/avatar-skills/facebook-videos@sha256:42bce8de7d909a3dThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260709.ec45941, 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.
