- Download YouTube videos with customizable quality and format options. Use this skill when the user asks to download, save, or grab YouTube videos. Supports various quality settings (best, 1080p, 720p, 480p, 360p), multiple formats (mp4, webm, mkv), and audio-only downloads as MP3.
YouTube Video Downloader
Download YouTube videos with full control over quality and format settings.
Quick Start
The simplest way to download a video:
python scripts/download_video.py "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEO_ID"
This downloads the video in best available quality as MP4 to /mnt/user-data/outputs/.
Options
Quality Settings
Use -q or --quality to specify video quality:
best(default): Highest quality available1080p: Full HD720p: HD480p: Standard definition360p: Lower qualityworst: Lowest quality available
Example:
python scripts/download_video.py "URL" -q 720p
Format Options
Use -f or --format to specify output format (video downloads only):
mp4(default): Most compatiblewebm: Modern formatmkv: Matroska container
Example:
python scripts/download_video.py "URL" -f webm
Audio Only
Use -a or --audio-only to download only audio as MP3:
python scripts/download_video.py "URL" -a
Custom Output Directory
Use -o or --output to specify a different output directory:
python scripts/download_video.py "URL" -o /path/to/directory
Complete Examples
- Download video in 1080p as MP4:
python scripts/download_video.py "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ" -q 1080p
- Download audio only as MP3:
python scripts/download_video.py "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ" -a
- Download in 720p as WebM to custom directory:
python scripts/download_video.py "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ" -q 720p -f webm -o /custom/path
How It Works
The skill uses yt-dlp, a robust YouTube downloader that:
- Automatically installs itself if not present
- Fetches video information before downloading
- Selects the best available streams matching your criteria
- Merges video and audio streams when needed
- Supports a wide range of YouTube video formats
Important Notes
- Downloads are saved to
/mnt/user-data/outputs/by default - Video filename is automatically generated from the video title
- The script handles installation of yt-dlp automatically
- Only single videos are downloaded (playlists are skipped by default)
- Higher quality videos may take longer to download and use more disk space

Use this skill any time a spreadsheet file is the primary input or output. This means any task where the user wants to: open, read, edit, or fix an existing .xlsx, .xlsm, .csv, or .tsv file (e.g., adding columns, computing formulas, formatting, charting, cleaning messy data); create a new spreadsheet from scratch or from other data sources; or convert between tabular file formats. Trigger especially when the user references a spreadsheet file by name or path — even casually (like "the xlsx in my downloads") — and wants something done to it or produced from it. Also trigger for cleaning or restructuring messy tabular data files (malformed rows, misplaced headers, junk data) into proper spreadsheets. The deliverable must be a spreadsheet file. Do NOT trigger when the primary deliverable is a Word document, HTML report, standalone Python script, database pipeline, or Google Sheets API integration, even if tabular data is involved.
