llm-youtube

LLM plugin for extracting content from YouTube videos.

This plugin is inspired by Simon Willison's llm-hacker-news and his excellent llm tool.

Installation

llm install llm-youtube

Usage

Passing the video ID

example:

llm -f yt:zv72WMmVkPw 'Please summarize this video'

Passing the Video URL

example:

llm -f yt:https://www.youtube.com/watch\?v\=zv72WMmVkPw 'Please summarize this video'

We can also use a system prompt to improve the result

example:

llm -f yt:sCr_gb8rdEI --system "You are an expert at analyzing YouTube videos. Extract the key points only, ignore filler content." "What is this video about?"

Development
