baoyu-youtube-transcript

Downloads transcripts (subtitles/captions) from YouTube videos. Works with both manually created and auto-generated transcripts. No API key or browser required — uses YouTube's InnerTube API directly and automatically falls back to yt-dlp when YouTube blocks the direct API path.

SkillJury keeps community verdicts, source metadata, and external repository signals in separate lanes so ranking data never pretends to be a review.

About this skill
Downloads transcripts (subtitles/captions) from YouTube videos. Works with both manually created and auto-generated transcripts. No API key or browser required — uses YouTube's InnerTube API directly and automatically falls back to yt-dlp when YouTube blocks the direct API path. Fetches video metadata and cover image on first run, caches raw data for fast re-formatting. Scripts in scripts/ subdirectory. {baseDir} = this SKILL.md's directory path. Resolve ${BUN_X} runtime: if bun installed → bun ; if npx available → npx -y bun ; else suggest installing bun. Replace {baseDir} and ${BUN_X} with actual values. Accepts any of these as video input: The --list mode outputs to stdout only (no file saved).

Source description provided by the upstream listing. Community review signal and install context stay separate from this narrative layer.
