jove-youtube-feed-pipeline

jove-youtube-feed-pipeline is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from build-with-dhiraj/ai-workflow-framework-portability-kit. It costs 167 tokens per session (1,476 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A pipeline that turns YouTube channels, playlists, or videos into searchable knowledge. It lists content, filters it, obtains transcripts, extracts useful entities and links, and stores the results in searchable databases.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to ingest selected YouTube content, transcribe it, filter and enrich the text, connect related material, and make the resulting knowledge searchable.
Why use it?
It separates free content checks from paid transcription and prevents unsuitable or duplicate videos from entering the knowledge system.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

jove-youtube-feed-pipeline scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

JoVE YouTube → Brain Feed Pipeline

The proven, repeatable process for turning YouTube content into queryable brain knowledge. Built + battle-tested across Rounds 1–3 (~8,500 transcripts).

The architecture (do NOT deviate)

Enumerate + gate for FREE; pay Apify only for transcripts.

  1. yt-dlp --flat-playlist enumerates a channel/playlist (FREE, no API key). Resolves @handles → channel IDs. This also powers the gate + top-N selection.
  2. Pre-flight gate (workers/preflight_channel.py --source ytdlp, $0 — gpt-4.1 + metadata): identity check + junk filter + cost forecast → GO/NO-GO before any spend.
  3. Apify (workers/apify_youtube_ingest.py) transcribes GO channels via the supreme_coder/youtube-transcript-scraper actor (~$0.0005/captioned video, pay-per-result). Modes: --channel, --playlist, --video, --watch; --top-n N caps giants; omit for full. Idempotent via data/youtube_channels.json registry. Token: APIFY_API_TOKEN in .env (free tier $5/mo).
  4. workers/connect_youtube.py --all enriches: filter (8-voice relevance) → NER (gpt-4.1) → LanceDB index → related-linker → link-to-[[JoVE]]. Idempotent (skips connected).
  5. LanceDB = the vector leg → queryable via workers/ask_brain.py.
  6. Pinecone archive (jove-memory / conversations namespace) — wrap-up summary of the round for future recall.

The 8 stakeholder voices (ranking lens)

Rank channels by voice fidelity (a real end-user speaks) × strategic weight to Dhiraj's mandate (author acquisition + editorial workflow + biopharma). 🎓 young researcher · 🔬 PI/author · 🖋 editor/reviewer · 🏭 biopharma/R&D · 📚 librarian/buyer · 👩‍🏫 instructor · 💰 grants · ⚔️ competitor. Source of truth: vault/context/jove/youtube-import-runbook.md (v3).

Running a feed round (autonomous, batched)

  1. Build a scope file like data/round3_scope.json: batches → channels {name, ref (channel_id|@handle|playlist_id|video_id), mode (channel|playlist|video), expect}. Group by voice/priority. expect is the gate's identity string — make it accurate (a too-narrow expect causes false NO-GO).
  2. Use the batch runner pattern (data/round3_runner.py): for each batch → ingest all channels → connect_youtube --all → validate (errors=0, fragments<500 or HALT) → next. Idempotent + resumable.
  3. Launch detached: PYTHONPATH=. nohup .venv/bin/python data/round3_runner.py &. Supervise via ScheduleWakeup (resume-proof), NOT a background bash watcher (those die on session resume).
  4. On completion: scorecard + ask_brain sanity query + Pinecone archive.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
