YouTube Full

What it does

The youtube-full community skill gives Hermes agents the ability to retrieve YouTube transcripts, search for videos, browse channel contents, and extract playlists. It bridges the gap between video content and agent workflows, enabling research, summarization, and content analysis pipelines that reference video sources.

Why it matters

Video is one of the largest sources of technical content, tutorials, conference talks, and product demos. Without a transcript extraction skill, agents cannot process video content. This skill makes YouTube a first-class data source for research agents, content curators, and knowledge management workflows.

Key capabilities

• Transcript retrieval: Pull full transcripts from any YouTube video with captions.
• Video search: Search YouTube for videos matching a query, with results formatted for agent consumption.
• Channel browsing: List videos from a channel, enabling systematic content audits.
• Playlist extraction: Extract video lists from playlists for batch processing.

Who it targets

• Research agents that need to synthesize information from video sources.
• Content curators building knowledge bases from conference talks and tutorials.
• Marketing agents monitoring competitor video content.
• Any Hermes workflow that benefits from video transcript data.
