v0.1.7

Tiny cleanup: open-ended --start/--end windows now pass yt-dlp's native inf to --download-sections instead of a 99999 sentinel. Verified against yt-dlp source via Context7 MCP — no behavior change, just cleaner code.

See CHANGELOG.md.

v0.1.6

Adds authority stacking to the creator-mode pattern library in SKILL.md.

When analyzing a video, watch for major claims backed by 4 named authority signals in a 30-second window — named customer + named end-user + named source + specific number — instead of just 1. "Reed Smith" beats "a law firm"; "six times" beats "faster." Density is the move.

See CHANGELOG.md.

v0.1.5

SKILL.md playbook upgrades

Three additions Claude reads on every /scope call:

• Windowing decision step. For videos > ~10 min where the question is about a specific section, default to --start/--end. Since 0.1.4 this is cheap (only the slice is downloaded). hook and bug modes already self-window.
• Original-video coordinates note. Frame timestamps in scope output are always in original-video coordinates, even when only a slice was fetched — no offset math needed when citing moments.
• Creator-mode patterns to look for. Dual-mode visual rhythm, comparison matrix as positioning weapon, lead-magnet drip, word-by-word kinetic captions, tone-flip cuts.

No code changes — purely instructional content. See CHANGELOG.md for full notes.

v0.1.4

Highlights

• Windowed downloads: --start and --end now constrain the yt-dlp download via --download-sections, so a 3-minute slice of a 4-hour video fetches in seconds, not minutes. Output timestamps stay in original-video coordinates.
• Chapter detection no longer degrades to one block on tightly edited talking-head videos. Silence detection retries at progressively looser thresholds; even-time-split is the last-resort fallback.
• Long silence-based chapters get subdivided into ~4-minute sub-segments so summarize/lecture modes always have usable structure.

Fixes since 0.1.0

• hooks.json schema (top-level hooks record) so Claude Code's plugin loader accepts it.
• Docs now invoke scope.py directly (it has a python3 shebang); the previous bash prefix made bash interpret the Python source.
