get_transcriptGet YouTube transcriptread-onlyFetch the transcript (captions) of a YouTube video plus metadata: title, channel, duration, views, publish date, available caption languages and whether the returned transcript is auto-generated. Formats: 'text' (plain text; with include_timestamps, ~30 s paragraphs prefixed [m:ss]), 'segments' (array of {start, duration, text}) or 'srt'. Can machine-translate captions via YouTube (translate_to).
get_video_chaptersGet video chaptersread-onlyChapters of a YouTube video with start/end times and deep links. Uses the creator's chapters from the description (or YouTube's chapter markers) when present; otherwise derives topic segments from the transcript (time windows + keyword-shift detection) and titles them with their distinctive keywords and a representative sentence.
search_videosSearch YouTube videosread-onlySearch YouTube videos by keyword (YouTube's InnerTube search API, the same one the website uses). Returns video id, title, channel, duration, views, relative publish time, description snippet, thumbnail and badges. Optional filters: upload_date, duration (short <4 min, medium 4-20 min, long >20 min), sort_by, and features (e.g. 'subtitles' = only videos with captions).
summarize_transcriptSummarize transcript (extractive)read-onlyStructured extractive summary of a YouTube video without an LLM: TL;DR, key points (TextRank over TF-IDF sentence similarity, de-duplicated), keywords/keyphrases, bullets per chapter (creator chapters or derived topic segments) and notable quotes. Every point carries a timestamp and a deep link to that moment.
