What it does
Youtube Watcher is an agent skill from CraftOS-dev/CraftBot. Fetch and read transcripts from YouTube videos. Use when you need to summarize a video, answer questions about its content, or extract information from it.
Its SKILL.md is about 380 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files, including scripts (for example `.clawhub/origin.json`, `_meta.json` and `scripts/get_transcript.py`).
It sits in Media & Creative, covering Transcription. It works with YouTube. The repository describes itself as: One agent. Every kind of work. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- You need to summarize a video
- Answer questions about its content
- Extract information from it
Example prompts
- “/youtube-watcher”
Requirements
- Python 3
Workflow steps
2 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Get the transcript
- Read the output and summarize it for the user.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b50970c. 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:
python3
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
youtube.com
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Youtube Watcher loads about 376 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 43 tokens; SKILL.md has 100 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
