Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • No undeclared network calls: failed

    Contacts 3 hosts that are neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: trac.ffmpeg.org, youtu.be, youtube.com.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

About this skill

What it does

The youtube-clipper skill enables users to extract and manage video clips from YouTube. It allows for precise trimming of videos, downloading specific segments, and organizing clips based on timestamps or keywords.

When to use it

  • You need to create highlight reels from long-form YouTube content.
  • You want to download a specific scene or moment from a video without the entire length.
  • You're editing content and require quick access to isolated video segments for further processing.

Key capabilities

  • Extract clips based on start and end timestamps
  • Download video segments directly from YouTube URLs
  • Organize and label clips for easy retrieval

Example prompts

  • "Extract a clip from 1:20 to 3:45 of this YouTube video."
  • "Download the part where the speaker talks about AI ethics from the given link."
  • "Trim the video between timestamps 5:10 and 7:30 and save it as a new file."

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure you have the correct YouTube URL and valid timestamps for accurate clipping.
  • Some videos may have restrictions that prevent direct downloading or trimming, depending on their settings.
