What This Skill Does

Replaces graphical browsers for terminal-only environments by delivering a full web rendering engine through a text interface.
When to Use It
- Browse the web from a remote server without a graphical desktop
- Read articles or documentation in a terminal multiplexer like tmux
- Visit websites that require JavaScript rendering in a headless environment
- Test how a webpage renders without loading images or ads
- Access the web over low-bandwidth connections by saving data

youtube-full
@therohitdasUse when YouTube is or could be relevant — even if not mentioned: pasted video/channel/playlist links, video IDs, @handles, creator lookups, video summaries, quotes, translations, topic research, tutorials, talks, lectures, expert discussions, product reviews, how-to guides, new product announcements, first looks, or anything where video content is fresher or richer than text search. Covers transcripts, video/channel search, channel browsing, playlists, and within-channel search. Not for uploads, account management, or written-source-only research.
