summarize

by Unknown v1.0.0

Summarize or extract text/transcripts from URLs, podcasts, and local files (great fallback for “transcribe this YouTube/video”).

What It Does

Summarizes content from URLs, local files (PDFs, etc.), and YouTube videos. Extracts text or generates summaries based on user-specified parameters and API keys. Supports multiple models and output formats.

When To Use

Use when needing a quick summary of a web page, document, or YouTube video. Especially helpful when a full transcript is unavailable or too long. Useful for extracting specific information from online content or local files.

Inputs

URL, file path (PDF, TXT, etc.), or YouTube video link.

Outputs

A text-based summary of the content, or a transcript of the YouTube video. Can also output JSON.

Limitations

Accuracy of summarization depends on the quality of the underlying model. YouTube transcript extraction may not always be perfect. Requires API keys for certain providers.

Installation

Install using brew: `brew install steipete/tap/summarize`. Ensure you have the necessary API keys (e.g., OPENAI_API_KEY) set as environment variables. Optionally, configure `~/.summarize/config.json` for default settings.
