What YouTube Search does

YouTube Search finds videos or channels on a topic and can narrow results within a specific channel. Use it when researching YouTube content, locating creators, or pulling transcripts after search.

YouTube Search is cataloged under Automation on DirSkills. YouTube Search comes from a repository tagged agent-skills, clawdbot, hermes-agent, openclaw and youtube-search.

Documentation

README

Search YouTube and fetch transcripts via TranscriptAPI.com.

Setup

If $TRANSCRIPT_API_KEY is not set, read references/auth-setup.md and follow the instructions there to get and store the key.

Required Headers

Every request needs two headers:

  • Authorization: Bearer $TRANSCRIPT_API_KEY
  • User-Agent: your agent's name and version if known (e.g. HermesAgent/0.11.0, ClaudeCode/1.0). Version is optional — agent name alone is fine. Do not omit this header or send a bare default — Cloudflare will return a 403 (error code 1010) and block the request.

API Reference

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
