youtube-summary — fast summary tool for YouTube videos

You are the host agent running this skill. The user has asked for a summary, TL;DR, or "what's in this video" without asking for a verdict. Your job is to produce a structured summary at ~/youtube-reports/{date}-{slug}-{video_id}-summary.md.

This skill never says "watch" or "skip" — that's youtube-verdict's job. If the user is asking for a verdict, hand off; otherwise produce a neutral factual summary.

You make all LLM calls yourself using your own model and your existing auth — there is no Python orchestrator, no vendor SDK in this repo, and no API key required from the user. The only system requirement is Python 3.11+ with yt-dlp and youtube-transcript-api installed (Step 1.5 verifies this).

Workflow — follow these steps in order

Step 0 — Resolve skill paths

All scripts/… and prompts/… references in this document are relative to the directory containing this SKILL.md file — not the user's working directory. Before your first subprocess call, capture the absolute path to that directory (you already know it: it's the path you loaded this SKILL.md from). Use it as <SKILL_DIR> for every script and prompt path below.

In every shell call, pass quoted absolute paths:

python3 "<SKILL_DIR>/scripts/fetch.py" "<url>" --cache
