watch
bradautomates/claude-videoSkill
Watch a video (URL or local path). Downloads with yt-dlp, extracts auto-scaled frames with ffmpeg, pulls the transcript from captions (or local WhisperX / cloud Whisper fallback), and hands the result to the agent so it can answer questions about what's in the video. With a Gemini API key, Google's agentic video model watches the full video instead.
Why this score

These are the sites named in the code, so it's where your data could go. It isn't a complete list: code can build addresses while it runs, and a few of these may be links rather than calls. Whatever you send also goes to the AI model you use.
A scan lists patterns in the code. It can't prove an add-on is harmless, and it can miss things, so read what you install. How we scan
