Watch

SkillMedia

Learn from a single YouTube or public video through The Homie's native video-learning engine. Use when the user asks Claude Code to watch, digest, study, summarize, extract strategy from, remember, compare, or apply lessons from one video URL.

Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.

Connect ahel once, and every AI you use reads what you have installed.

Then ask your AI: use the Watch skill

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by thesmokedev/taskchad-os in .claude/skills/watch/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Delegate to the shared Homie engine. Do not implement a separate Claude-only extractor.

uv run --project .claude/scripts thehomie chat -q "/watch <video-url> <optional question> --detail smart" -Q
  • smart: transcript first; read bounded frames only when visual cues matter.
  • transcript: captions/audio only.
  • deep: bounded visual-frame inspection as well as transcript analysis.
  • --no-save: skip the sourced vault note only when explicitly requested.

The engine analyzes one video, compares it with current/recalled context, keeps raw artifacts out of the vault, and saves a paraphrased dossier in research/videos/ by default.

Application is two-step and default-deny: /watch apply <job_id> produces a local proposal without edits; /watch approve <job_id> <exact-token> applies only that exact local proposal. External actions remain separately gated.

Use /watch status [job_id], /watch retry <job_id>, and /watch cancel <job_id> for operations.
