Read the caption track of one YouTube video, addressed by its video_id and the language you want it in. One request per call, priced by the vendor's own rate card; an empty result set is reported as no result.
How to run it
Step 1Set up
Once: paste this into your agent's chat. The Skill installs the CLI and logs in by itself. For an agent that cannot use a shell, connect it over MCP instead.
set up https://glasser.ai/SKILL.md
Show me how to use the DataForSEO endpoint /v3/serp/youtube/video_subtitles/live/advanced on Glasser.glasser run -p dataforseo -e '/v3/serp/youtube/video_subtitles/live/advanced' -i '{"video_id":"dQw4w9WgXcQ","language_code":"en","location_code":2840}' --endpoint-version 1Uses endpoint version 1. Inspect the current price before running. Install and log in first on Get Started.
Once per Run:
IDEMPOTENCY_KEY=$(uuidgen)Run it, and copy this same block to send it again:
curl -X POST https://api.glasser.ai/v1/runs \
-H "Authorization: Bearer gl_..." \
-H "Idempotency-Key: $IDEMPOTENCY_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"provider":"dataforseo","endpoint":"/v3/serp/youtube/video_subtitles/live/advanced","input":{"video_id":"dQw4w9WgXcQ","language_code":"en","location_code":2840},"endpoint_version":1}'Reuse the same Idempotency-Key to send it again: the second send is a read of the first Run. A new key is a new Run and a new Charge. Uses endpoint version 1; inspect the current price before running.
Step 2Try a specific example task
When you need to prepare a research brief, you might find published posts about your topic and use them as source material.
Copy this prompt into your agent to find relevant posts for your research brief.
Use dataforseo:/v3/serp/youtube/video_subtitles/live/advanced on Glasser.
Find published content about my topic in the returned posts for a research brief.Endpoint structure
