Summary
- Accepts multiple URL formats (youtube.com/watch?v=, youtu.be/, embed links, or raw video IDs) and outputs plain text or timestamped format
- Fetches auto-generated or manually added captions, whichever is available; requires captions to be enabled on the video
- Outputs to a file named VIDEO_ID-transcript.txt by default, or to a user-specified file path
- When timestamps are omitted, reorganizes caption segments into complete paragraphs to avoid mid-sentence line breaks
