Fast CLI to summarize URLs, local files, and YouTube links.
Use this skill immediately when the user asks any of:
yt-dlp needed)summarize "https://example.com" --model google/gemini-3-flash-preview
summarize "/path/to/file.pdf" --model google/gemini-3-flash-preview
summarize "https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ" --youtube auto
Best-effort transcript (URLs only):
summarize "https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ" --youtube auto --extract-only
If the user asked for a transcript but it’s huge, return a tight summary first, then ask which section/time range to expand.
