  description

  **Turn YouTube tutorials into reusable Claude skills — automatically.**
  
  Every great how-to video is full of knowledge that disappears the moment you close the tab. This extension captures it. With one click, it takes any YouTube tutorial and converts it into a structured, reusable Claude skill — so the steps, tools, and techniques from the video become instructions Claude can follow on demand.
  Instead of re-watching a 20-minute walkthrough every time you need it, you get a clean, organized skill you can run, share, and reuse whenever you want.
  
  **How it works**
  
  Open any YouTube tutorial — a coding walkthrough, a design process, a software how-to, a recipe, a workflow demo.
  Click the extension. It reads the video's transcript and content and identifies the actual steps being taught.
  It generates a ready-to-use Claude skill: structured instructions, ordered steps, required tools, and key details, formatted the way Claude expects.
  Save it, refine it, or use it right away.
  
  **Why people use it**
  
  Stop re-watching the same tutorials. Capture a process once and reuse it forever.
  Turn passive video content into something Claude can actually act on.
  Build a personal library of skills from the creators and channels you trust.
  Standardize repeatable workflows for yourself or your team.
  
  **What it's great for**
  
  Developers turning coding tutorials into repeatable setup and build steps.
  Designers and creators capturing tool workflows and techniques.
  Operators and teams documenting repeatable processes from training videos.
  Lifelong learners building a searchable, reusable knowledge base from YouTube.
  
  **Key features**
  
  One-click capture from any YouTube tutorial.
  Automatic transcript reading and step extraction.
  Clean, structured output formatted as a proper Claude skill.
  Edit and refine generated skills before saving.
  Build and organize a growing library of skills over time.
  
  Get started in seconds. Install the extension, open a tutorial you love, and click once. Your first reusable Claude skill is ready before the video would have even finished playing.
  
  tube2skill bridges the gap between learning something on YouTube and actually being able to use that knowledge inside Claude.
  
  **What is a Claude skill?**
  A skill is a `.skill` file you install into Claude Code or Cowork. It gives Claude focused, structured knowledge about a specific topic — turning a one-off video watch into a reusable capability you can invoke any time.
  
  **Plans:** Start free with 2 skills. Subscribe for more — Casual (£5/month, 5 skills/month), Plus (£20/month, 25 skills/month), Unlimited (£99/month, unlimited skills/month. Generation is handled entirely on our servers, so there's no API key to manage.
  
  **Privacy:** tube2skill sends the video transcript and basic metadata to our backend to generate your skill, and uses Google sign-in to keep your skills tied to your account. See the privacy policy for details.

  Convert any YouTube tutorial into a Claude Skill in one click. Tube2Skill extracts the steps, code, and key concepts from any video and packages them as a .skill file Claude can use immediately — no more pausing, copy-pasting, or re-prompting.
  Built for developers, AI builders, prompt engineers, and anyone who learns from YouTube.
  How it works:
  
  Open any tutorial on YouTube
  Click the Tube2Skill icon in your toolbar
  Download your ready-to-use Claude Skill — drop it into Claude and it instantly knows what the video teaches
  
  Why it works: Most YouTube tutorials are 20–40 minutes of dense, hands-on knowledge. Manually feeding that to Claude takes nearly as long as watching it. Tube2Skill captures the framework, context, and goals so Claude responds like it watched the video with you.
  Free to install. Two free conversions included. No credit card required.
  
  What you get
  Each conversion produces a clean .skill Markdown file containing:
  
  The full workflow, broken into steps Claude can execute
  Code snippets from the tutorial, preserved exactly
  Key concepts and terminology the creator uses
  The video's title, link, and timestamps for reference
  
  Drop the file into your Claude project's Skills folder, and Claude will use it like it watched the video alongside you.
  Use cases
  
  Developers: turn coding tutorials into reusable Claude Skills for any framework — Next.js, FastAPI, LangChain, anything
  AI builders: convert agent and RAG tutorials into Skills Claude can apply to your own projects
  Prompt engineers: capture prompting techniques from YouTube into structured skills you can compose
  No-code builders: turn Make/n8n/Zapier walkthroughs into Skills that guide Claude through your automations
  Students: convert lecture videos and tech talks into study Skills Claude can quiz you on
  
  Privacy & data
  
  We do not store the YouTube videos themselves
  We save your generated Skills so you don't pay twice for the same conversion
  Payments handled by ExtensionPay (powered by Stripe) — we never see your card
  No Claude account required to use Tube2Skill
  
  Requirements
  
  A YouTube video with captions or a transcript (auto-generated captions work)
  Chrome browser
