One of 9 test cases the skill fixed. Same model, same prompt, with and without the skill.

The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.
Fetch a YouTube video's transcript and save a clean raw .txt file. Primary path is DeepAPI POST /v1/scrape/youtube/transcript. It runs server-side, so it avoids the local-IP bot flagging that plagues yt-dlp.
~/Downloads.Channel_Title with spaces replaced by _ (e.g. David_Ondrej_title_of_video.txt). If metadata is unavailable, fall back to the video ID.DEEPAPI_API_KEY must already be present in the environment. Do not read shell
startup files or print secrets:
test -n "$DEEPAPI_API_KEY" || { echo "DEEPAPI_API_KEY is not set"; exit 1; }
BASE=${DEEPAPI_API_BASE_URL:-https://deepapi.co}
Run the scrape (keep the Idempotency-Key; retries must reuse the SAME one):
IDK=$(uuidgen)
curl -s --max-time 120 "$BASE/v1/scrape/youtube/transcript" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $DEEPAPI_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Idempotency-Key: $IDK" \
-d '{"url": "VIDEO_URL", "maxCostUsd": "0.05", "waitForFinishSecs": 60}' \
> /tmp/yt_transcript.json
"language": "de" (etc.) to the body.status: running → wait next.afterSecs, then curl "$BASE$(jq -r '.next.path' /tmp/yt_transcript.json)" -H "Authorization: Bearer $KEY" until succeeded or failed.Extract the text and save it:
