  • Tasks that involve Knowledge bases
  • SKILL.md covers Before you start, Step 0: Set your API key, Step 1: Fetch transcripts and Step 2: Build the OKF…, plus 1 more section

What it does

Channel To Kb Supadata is an agent skill from coleam00/cole-medin-knowledge-base. Build an OKF (Open Knowledge Format) knowledge base from any YouTube channel. Uses Google's OKF standard so any AI can read the output with zero setup. Uses Supadata (managed API, paid). Invoke with /channel-to-kb-supadata @ChannelHandle

Its SKILL.md is about 850 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/fetch_transcripts.py`).

It sits in Knowledge Management, covering Knowledge bases. It works with YouTube. The repository describes itself as: An OKF (Open Knowledge Format) knowledge base + Karpathy-style LLM wiki synthesized from Cole Medin's entire long-form YouTube catalog. Drop it next to any project for…

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Knowledge bases

Example prompts

  • “/channel-to-kb-supadata”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • A credential in SUPADATA_API_KEY

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Set your API key
  2. Fetch transcripts
  3. Build the OKF knowledge base
  4. Validate OKF conformance

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit eba5e31. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python
    • uv

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • github.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • SUPADATA_API_KEY

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Channel To Kb Supadata loads about 854 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 65 tokens; SKILL.md has 383 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~65
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~854

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 383 words (~854 tokens).

“Turn any YouTube channel into a synthesized, cross-linked knowledge base in Open Knowledge Format (OKF). OKF is Google's open standard for LLM-readable knowledge bases: plain markdown + YAML frontmatter, navigated by index and relative links, no database or embeddings required…”
