Turn a YouTube video into a structured Circle course package: decides full course vs section addition (against course_structure.md), cuts sentence-aligned lessons via video-cutter, writes lesson content in Ben's voice, and outputs clips, lesson.md, description.txt, README, and manifest. STEP 2 of the YouTube pipeline: yt-to-community always runs first; invoke only after the community post is saved and the user confirms course material. TRIGGERS: "yes, course it", "turn this into a course…
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 to Course Material Turn YouTube videos into structured, ready-to-upload course content for the BenAI Accelerator community on Circle. Two output types: a full new course (long-form, multi-section videos) or new lessons added to an existing course (shorter, topic-specific videos). ## Pipeline Position This skill is **step 2 of 2** in the YouTube repurposing pipeline. 1. `yt-to-community`: community post + thumbnail. Always runs first. 2. `yt-to-course` (this skill): course material. Runs only after the post is done and the user has confirmed.

The pipeline order is fixed: post first, course second. ## Why This Exists …

How to install
mdr add naveedharri/benai-skills/yt-to-course@sha256:8e5bdf0de82e5c6aThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260916.a3b1e15, 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.
