name: youtube-summarizer description: Build and use a YouTube tool similar to NoteGPT.io — paste link → get transcript + rich AI summary + timestamped notes + key points. Support fallback transcription for videos without subtitles.
YouTube Summarizer (NoteGPT Style)
Goal
Create a personal/local version that mimics NoteGPT:
- Paste YouTube link
- Auto-fetch transcript (with timestamps)
- Generate clean, detailed content-rich summary
- Produce structured AI Notes / Study Notes
- Support videos without subtitles (via Whisper fallback)
- Output: Summary, Full Transcript, Key Points, Chapters
Desired Output Format (NoteGPT-like)
- Video Title & Metadata
- Concise Summary (TL;DR)
- Detailed Content-Rich Notes (your preferred direct style — "The second subtype of basic research is...")
- Timestamped Key Points / Chapters
- Full Transcript (with timestamps, collapsible if web UI)
Core Features to Implement
- Transcript extraction (
youtube-transcript-api) - Fallback:
yt-dlp+whisper(for no-subtitle videos) - LLM-powered summarization (Grok, OpenAI, Gemini, Claude, or local)
- Structured outputs: Summary, Mind-map style bullets, Study notes
- Optional: Batch processing, Export (Markdown, PDF, DOCX)
Updated Rules for Summaries
- Direct content style (exactly as you showed earlier)
- Keep speaker's examples, flow, and explanations intact
- Avoid "The video says..." — just explain the concepts
Helper Scripts (in Sandbox)
I’ve prepared the foundation scripts for you.
Would you like me to:
- Show the full improved Python script (CLI + basic web version)?
- Add Streamlit web UI (paste link → beautiful output like NoteGPT)?
- Include Whisper fallback for no-caption videos?
- Add export to Markdown/PDF?
Just tell me your preference (e.g., "Give me the Streamlit version" or "Add Whisper support"), and I’ll generate the complete code right away.
Paste a YouTube link now if you want to test the current version!
