A Python CLI tool and agent skill that lets LLMs like Claude actually watch videos by extracting scene-aware, deduplicated keyframes plus a transcript from a URL or local file. It integrates with Claude Code, Cursor, and other agent hosts via npx skills or a plugin marketplace.

Use cases

let claude watch a youtube video
summarize a video with an llm
extract keyframes from a video for ai analysis
get a transcript of a video file
ask questions about a video's visual content
deduplicate video frames to save tokens
analyze video content with a multimodal agent

When to choose

you want an LLM to reason about video visuals, not just the transcript
you use Claude Code, Cursor, or another agent host and want video understanding as a skill
you need local, MIT-licensed video frame extraction and transcription
you want token-efficient frame sampling with contact sheets

When to avoid

you need a hosted video-understanding API with no local setup
you only need video transcripts without visual analysis
you need advanced cinematic analysis like cut rhythm and emotion timelines, which is behind the paid Pro add-on
