MMK YouTube
Prerequisite: Read
../mmk-shared/SKILL.mdfor auth, global flags, and error handling.
Get YouTube video metadata, transcripts, and video type using the mmk CLI.
Always use -o json when parsing results or composing with other commands.
All commands accept a positional argument — either a full YouTube URL or a plain video ID. The CLI auto-detects the format (presence of / or . indicates URL). Always quote the URL (see Shell Quoting in mmk-shared) — unquoted URLs containing ? or & will fail in zsh.
