Youtube Apify Transcript

This skill appears to be internally consistent and implements exactly what it claims: it needs an APIFY API token and the Python requests package to call Apify actor(s) and cache results. Before installing: - Provide an APIFY_API_TOKEN (SKILL.md and package.json require it); ignore the registry summary that says none — that is inconsistent. - Review or set YT_TRANSCRIPT_CACHE_DIR if you don't want transcripts stored under the skill directory; cached transcripts persist until you run --clear-cache. - Understand that transcripts are retrieved via a third-party Apify actor (actor IDs are listed). Using Apify means your requests go through Apify's infrastructure and the actor code run by that actor owner; ensure you trust that actor/provider and are comfortable with any data sent to Apify and potential billing on your account. - The tool does not request other credentials or perform other surprising actions in the visible code, but you may want to inspect the remainder of the script (truncated in the provided snippet) to confirm there are no unexpected network endpoints or behavior before granting the APIFY token. If you need stronger guarantees, run the script locally with a limited Apify token or instrument the network calls to confirm only api.apify.com is contacted.
