Individual skill
watching-videos
The user shared a video URL, a YouTube/TikTok/stream link, a local video file, a screen recording, a meeting recording, or a playlist/folder of videos — "watch this", "summarize this video", "what's in this recording". Use this to actually watch the video — download, extract frames, OCR, transcribe, and index it — instead of guessing from the title or asking the user to describe it.

# Watching videos
You don't have a video input; this skill gives you one. Anything a user
hands you — a YouTube link, a TikTok, a lecture, a meeting recording, a
screen capture, an .mp4 on disk — goes through the same pipeline: frames
(scene-aware, deduplicated), OCR, transcript (captions first, local
Whisper offline fallback), all persisted into one index.
## Before watching: check the index
```bash
watch-skill list
```
