Install and run

Setup complexity: low.

clawhub skill install s175p518b8g47fx6r9zyvs95ks876t4t:clip-media

Setup complexity is classified as HIGH. You must provision dedicated cloud infrastructure or an isolated VM. Do not run this directly on your local workstation.
Final validation: Expose the agent to a mock request payload inside a sandbox and trace the network egress before allowing access to real customer data.

Contract: missing

description: Extract media (videos, photos, GIFs, audio) from social media URLs using yt-dlp. Supports 1,872+ platforms. WARNING: files over 50 MB require --confirm-upload for public cloud upload. Browser cookie access exposes authentication material. Only use with non-sensitive content.
---

# Clip

⚠️ **Security warnings before use:**
- Files over 50 MB **require `--confirm-upload`** to upload to public third-party hosts (tmpfiles.org, transfer.sh)
- Browser cookie access (`--cookies-from-browser`) exposes **active session tokens** for any platform you're logged into
- **Never** use with private, paid, confidential, copyrighted, or regulated content unless you explicitly intend external transmission

## How It Works

1. User shares a URL from any supported platform
2. Run the extraction script
3. Script downloads the media (or just analyzes it)
4. Returns the file path (under 50 MB) or a cloud link (over 50 MB)
5. Agent sends the media to the user

⚠️ **Before any extraction:** Confirm the content is not private, paid, or sensitive. Files over 50 MB are uploaded to public temp hosts — the script now shows a pre-upload warning and supports `--no-upload` to skip it entirely.

## Command

```bash
node skills/clip/extract.js <url> [options]
```

### Options

| Flag | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `--output-dir <dir>` | Save location (default: `/tmp/media-share`) |
| `--title` | Return title/description only, no download |
| `--info` | Return full metadata as JSON |
| `--test` | Validate URL without downloading |
| `--upload` | Force cloud upload even for small files |
| `--confirm-upload` | **Required for any public cloud upload** — explicit opt-in |
| `--cloud=<provider>` | Cloud provider: `tmpfiles` or `transfer` |
| `--no-direct-send` | Always return path, never auto-send |
| `--no-upload` | **Skip cloud upload entirely** — always return local path |
| `--list-sites` | Show supported platforms |
| `--list-types` | Show what media a URL contains |

### Examples

```bash
# Download media (fastest path)
node skills/clip/extract.js "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ"

# Get title only (no download, instant)
node skills/clip/extract.js "https://www.instagram.com/p/abc123/" --title

# Check what's in a URL before downloading
node skills/clip/extract.js "https://www.tiktok.com/@user/video/123" --list-types

# Show supported sites
node skills/clip/extract.js --list-sites
```

## Supported Platforms

## Description:

Extract media such as videos, photos, GIFs, and audio from social media URLs using yt-dlp, returning local files, metadata, or an explicitly confirmed public upload link.

This skill is ready for commercial/non-commercial use.

## Publisher:

[jlacroix82](https://clawhub.ai/user/jlacroix82)

### License/Terms of Use:

MIT-0

## Use Case:

Developers and agents use Clip Media to inspect or retrieve media from supported URLs and return metadata, local file paths, or temporary public links after explicit upload consent. It is intended for non-sensitive media where downloading and any external transmission are permitted.

### Deployment Geography for Use:

Global

## Known Risks and Mitigations:

Risk: Public upload paths can expose media through third-party temporary hosts and may not use the upload host the user selected.

Mitigation: Use --no-upload for sensitive files, require --confirm-upload for any public upload, and verify the actual returned host before sharing the link.

Risk: Browser-wide cookie access can expose active authenticated sessions.

Mitigation: Avoid --cookies-from-browser unless the user explicitly accepts the risk; prefer non-sensitive public URLs or narrowly scoped manual credentials.

Risk: Private, paid, copyrighted, regulated, or confidential media can create legal, privacy, or policy exposure if downloaded or transmitted.

Mitigation: Confirm the content is permitted for download and sharing before extraction, and keep regulated or confidential content local.

## Skill Output:

**Output Type(s):** [text, JSON, files, shell commands, guidance]

**Output Format:** [Plain text, JSON metadata, local file paths, and temporary public URLs]

**Output Parameters:** [1D]

**Other Properties Related to Output:** [Downloads are saved locally by default; public uploads require explicit confirmation and may use third-party temporary hosts.]
