Turn a YouTube lecture (URL or pasted transcript) into an Obsidian study note with LaTeX math, callouts, timestamp links, board equations read from video frames, honest confidence markers, and review questions that can go to a spaced-repetition queue. Use when the user shares a lecture link or transcript and wants notes, or asks to resolve the ❓ markers in an existing lecture note.
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 lecture → Obsidian note The user reviews and edits a ready-made note instead of writing notes while watching. Accuracy beats completeness: never present a guess as lecture content. Scripts live in `scripts/` next to this file. Run them with `python3 -I` (`python` on Windows). Use a fresh temporary folder per video as WORKDIR. Python standard library only; external tools are yt-dlp (required), ffmpeg and deno/node (for frames). ## 0. Settings Run `scripts/config.py show`. Keys are explained in [references/config.md](references/config.md). Then: - `vault` empty → `scripts/config.py vaults`. One vault: use it. Several: ask once which one, then offer to save it with `scripts/config.py set vault "<path>"`. None: ask where notes should go. - First run on this machine, or a tool fails → `scripts/doctor.py` and pass on its fix lines. - `note_language: auto` → write in the language the user writes to you in. Keep technical terms and symbols as the lecturer uses them. ## 1. Get the transcript - Pasted transcript → use it; skip to step 3. - URL → `scripts/fetch_transcript.py URL WORKDIR --lang "<sub_langs>"`. …

How to install
mdr add abdelrhman2fawzy/lecture-to-obsidian/youtube-lecture-notes@sha256:960408cf13a04be1The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261028.483ce30, 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.
