Make Claude actually watch a video. Downloads any YouTube/Vimeo/TikTok/X video or local `.mp4`/`.mov`, fetches a timestamped transcript (via captions API, yt-dlp auto-subs, or local Whisper fallback), and extracts smart-sampled frames so Claude can SEE the visuals AND READ the audio in one pass. Use this skill any time the user pastes a video link or path with a question — "summarize this", "tóm tắt video", "phân tích", "xem giúp em", "what's at the 30s mark", "explain this clip…
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
# youtube-watch
Default workflow — call `extract-v3.sh` and then read `understanding.md`. That's the whole skill in one sentence.
```bash
${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/extract-v3.sh "<video-url-or-path>"
```
(Outside Claude Code, use the folder you cloned into, e.g. `~/.claude/skills/youtube-watch/scripts/extract-v3.sh`.)
**Look at every frame.** To watch, summarize or explain a video (including "xem", "tóm tắt", or a bare link), open **every** picture in `sheets/` (`sheet_01.jpg`, `sheet_02.jpg`, …) before answering. Each holds 16 frames, labelled with frame number and time, so a 15-min video is about 8 reads. Then open single frames from `frames/` to read small on-screen text (slides, tables, tweets, code). Do not answer from `overview.jpg` and a couple of frames: the picture often carries what the speaker never says (dashboards, numbers, quoted articles). In the answer, say how many frames you looked at (e.g. "looked at 131/131 frames"). Only for a narrow question about one moment ("what's at 2:30") may you open just that part. `overview.jpg` (~20 frames in one picture) is a first glance only.

How to install
mdr add imtylervo/youtube-watch/youtube-watch@sha256:9d5d17800538c78eThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261103.a29613e, 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.
