First install it if missing, then run the verify command. Start with read-only or inspection commands. Summarize what you found before changing anything. Ask for confirmation before commands that mutate remote state, spend money, deploy, delete data, merge code, or expose secrets.\n\nSource: OpenCLI\n"},"fit":{"bestFor":"save youtube captions, search timestamped transcripts, and feed videos to coding agents from the terminal.","useThisIf":"You want docs and content that runs entirely on your machine.","skipIf":"You don't work with docs and content.","whatHappensNext":"Run `ytmd get https://youtu.be/jNQXAC9IVRw` to see it in action."},"capabilities":{"agentFriendly":true,"supportsJsonOutput":true,"supportsNonInteractive":true,"supportsDryRun":false,"requiresAuth":false,"requiresNetwork":true,"ciFriendly":true,"localFirst":true,"destructivePotential":"low"},"taxonomy":{"useCases":["Save YouTube captions","Search timestamped transcripts","Feed videos to coding agents"],"aliases":["youtube markdown","youtube transcripts"],"keywords":["youtube","transcript","captions","agent"],"tags":["agent-friendly","local-first","json-output"]},"links":{"website":"https://gvkhosla.github.io/ytmd/","github":"https://github.com/gvkhosla/ytmd","docs":"https://gvkhosla.github.io/ytmd/llms.txt","opencli":"https://opencli.co/cli/ytmd","markdown":"https://opencli.co/cli/ytmd/agent.md","json":"https://opencli.co/cli/ytmd.json"},"metrics":{"githubStars":null,"latestRelease":null,"license":null,"metricLabel":null,"metricValue":null,"metricSource":null,"metricAsOf":null}}
