youtube-deepdive

name	youtube-deepdive
description	Takes one or more YouTube video URLs, visits each page using Brave MCP, extracts chapters/timestamps, key moments, and top comments, and produces a structured highlight report. Use when the user wants to find the best parts of a video without watching the whole thing.

What this skill does

Given one or more YouTube video URLs, this skill visits each video page and extracts:

• Chapters and timestamps from the description
• Key moments (if YouTube shows them)
• The video description summary
• Notable comments that highlight key takeaways

It then produces a structured "highlight reel" report so the user can jump straight to the best parts.

How to execute

For each video URL provided:

1. Navigate to the video URL — mcp__brave-devtools__browser_navigate
2. Take a snapshot — mcp__brave-devtools__browser_snapshot
3. Look for:
   • Chapters/timestamps in the description (lines starting with 0:00, 1:23, etc.)
   • Key moments panel YouTube sometimes renders on the page
   • Description text — first 3-5 sentences summarizing the content
   • Top comments — scroll or look for comment section in snapshot; extract 2-3 that mention specific tips or moments
4. If the description is collapsed, look for an "expand" or "more" button ref and click it — mcp__brave-devtools__browser_click
5. Repeat for each video
6. Close the browser when done — mcp__brave-devtools__browser_close

Output format

Produce this write-up directly — no preamble:

YouTube Deep Dive: [Video Title]

Channel: [channel name] | URL: [link] | Duration: [duration if visible]

What it's about

1-2 sentences from the description. Plain English.

Best parts to watch

Timestamp	What happens	Why it matters
0:00	...	...
2:15	...	...

(If no timestamps are available, note that and summarize the key sections based on the description.)

What viewers found valuable

2-3 highlights from top comments (quote briefly, note what they're reacting to).

Should you watch it?

One sentence verdict — who this is for and whether it's worth the full runtime.

(Repeat the above block for each video.)

Rules

• Use plain English throughout — this is for PMs, not engineers
• Do not fabricate timestamps or quote comments you didn't read from the page
• If the video page is unavailable (private, deleted, region-blocked), say so and skip it
• If no chapters exist, do your best to infer structure from the description text
• After the write-up, ask: "Want me to save this to docs/youtube-deepdive.md?"
