This is a wrapper around yt-dlp that lets Claude download videos or rip audio from over 900 platforms. You get three Python scripts: one for video downloads with quality presets (1080p, 720p, audio-only), one specifically for audio extraction in formats like MP3 or FLAC, and one that parses URLs from text or stdin. It covers the obvious platforms like YouTube and TikTok but also handles Reddit, Twitch clips, Streamable, and plenty of obscure ones. The auto-detection feature scans conversations for video links and prompts you to download them, which is either handy or annoying depending on your workflow. Requires ffmpeg for format conversion.
