Drive the user's authenticated YouTube via the browser skill: channels, videos, comments + commenters, search via the InnerTube API; gated like/comment/subscribe. Use for YouTube research/automation as the user.

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 — recon plan (InnerTube API)

**Internal API:** InnerTube —
`POST https://www.youtube.com/youtubei/v1/<endpoint>?key=<INNERTUBE_API_KEY>&prettyPrint=false`,
body `{ context: <INNERTUBE_CONTEXT>, ...params }`. The web app uses this for
everything.

## Config + auth (from the page)

- `INNERTUBE_API_KEY` + `INNERTUBE_CONTEXT` live in `ytcfg`. Read in-page:
  ```js
  ;() => ({
    key: ytcfg.get("INNERTUBE_API_KEY"),
    ctx: ytcfg.get("INNERTUBE_CONTEXT"),
  })
  ```
- Public reads: often work with just key + context (no auth).
- Personalized / write (subscriptions, comments, like): need **SAPISIDHASH**
  auth:
  - `Authorization: SAPISIDHASH <ts>_<SHA1(ts + " " + SAPISID + " " + origin)>`
    where SAPISID = the `SAPISID` (or `__Secure-3PAPISID`) cookie, origin =
    `https://www.youtube.com`, ts = unix seconds. Compute SHA-1 in-page
    (SubtleCrypto). Also send `X-Goog-AuthUser: 0`, `Origin`, cookies (auto).

In-page fetch:

```js
;async (endpoint, body) => {
  const key = ytcfg.get("INNERTUBE_API_KEY")
  const r = await fetch(
    `/youtubei/v1/${endpoint}?key=${key}&prettyPrint=false`,
    {
      method: "POST",
      headers: {
