Extract Youtube Transcript

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This transcript skill does the requested job, but it also ships a YouTube/Google cookie file that appears to contain account session material.

Review before installing. Do not use this package as-is unless the bundled cookie file is removed and any cookie-based authentication is explicitly user-provided, documented, and limited to the requested video. The likely affected Google/YouTube session should be revoked or rotated.

MCP Least Privilege

Finding
The skill clearly performs outbound network access to YouTube transcript services and can write transcripts to local files, yet the manifest does not declare corresponding permissions. Undeclared capabilities undermine least-privilege review and make it harder for the host to enforce policy or obtain informed user/admin consent, even though the documented behavior appears aligned with the skill's stated purpose.
