# media-downloader Download any video from 1,000+ sites via yt-dlp with optional ffmpeg compression. Designed as a companion step to `/sumtube` for non-YouTube sources and offline workflows. --- ## Setup preflight Before invoking the skill, run the setup script to verify all required tools are present: ``` python scripts/setup.py --check ``` Exit codes: | Code | Meaning | Fix | |---|---|---| | 0 | All dependencies present | Proceed | | 2 | `yt-dlp` missing | `pip install yt-dlp` | | 3 | `ffmpeg` missing | `brew install ffmpeg` | | 4 | Both missing | Install both | No API keys are required. --- ## When to use Use this skill: - Before `/sumtube` when the video is not directly accessible by URL from within sumtube (non-YouTube sources, age-gated content, or platforms requiring a local file input). - For offline workflows where you want the file available locally before summarising. - Standalone, when you want to save video content to disk without summarising. If you are summarising a standard public YouTube video, `/sumtube` can handle the URL directly — `media-downloader` is not required. --- ## How to invoke **Step 1 — Run setup preflight** ``` python scripts/setup.py --check ``` Confirm exit code 0 before continuing. If non-zero, install the missing dependency and re-run. **Step 2 — Download the video** ``` python scripts/download.py <url> [--output <dir>] [--no-compress] [--quality <format>] ``` Example: ``` python scripts/download.py https://www.tiktok
