dsh-video-to-notes

Turn course, lecture, tutorial, documentary, meeting, and talk videos into structured study notes, inside DeepSeek Harness.

将视频（课程 / 讲座 / 教程 / 纪录片 / 会议 / 演讲等）自动转为高质量结构化学习笔记的 DSH 技能包。

看视频 ≠ 学会。笔记才是真正属于你的知识。

Install

dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-video-to-notes

Restart DSH afterwards. The bundle applies one patch row and changes nothing else.

What the bundle does

This package ships no runtime plugin logic. Its substance is a single Skill:

skills/video-to-notes/
├── SKILL.md                  skill instructions and routing description
├── scripts/transcribe.py     ffmpeg + Whisper speech-to-text
├── scripts/download_video.py yt-dlp network download
└── references/               note templates and the detailed workflow

cordis.patch.yml inserts one @deepseek-ai/dsh-skill-filesystem row that mounts the packaged skills/ directory as an isolated provider (includeDefaultRoots: false), so this bundle contributes the video-to-notes skill without touching the project or user skill roots. The skill root resolves from the profile's own module resolution — the installed npm identity — never from a path concatenated onto baseUrl.

Requirements

The skill drives local tools; DSH does not install them for you.

The skill instructs the agent to detect missing dependencies, name them, and wait for your explicit confirmation before installing anything.

What the skill does

1. Detect dependencies — reports exactly what is missing and asks before installing.
2. Acquire the video — a local path, or a URL downloaded with yt-dlp after you confirm the output directory.
3. Transcribe — Whisper with per-scenario defaults (base for ordinary videos, turbo for long ones, --language zh for Chinese, optional --strip-silence and --speed acceleration).
4. Write the notes — semantic chunking into a chapter outline, an optional Mermaid knowledge map for long content, ⭐/🔧/⚠️ emphasis markers, a closing quick-reference card, and a style matched to the content type (technical tutorial, classroom, talk, documentary).

Model choice, device selection (CUDA / Apple MPS / CPU), speed, and the note format are all decided by the skill; you only supply the video and any preferences.

Privacy and copyright

Transcripts and notes can contain sensitive material — review and delete them when they are no longer needed. Downloading third-party video must respect the source platform's terms; use it for personal study.
