Summarize — Universal Content Extraction & Summarization

Five capabilities in one CLI tool: Summarize, Scrape, Transcribe, Extract Slides, Batch Process.

Workflow Routing

Request Pattern	Route To
Summarize URL/video/article, key takeaways from URL	`Workflows/SummarizeContent.md`
Extract transcript, YouTube transcript, transcribe audio/video	`Workflows/ExtractTranscript.md`
Scrape URL, extract webpage, get markdown from site	`Workflows/ScrapeWebpage.md`
Summarize multiple URLs, batch process	`Workflows/BatchProcess.md`
Extract slides, slides from video, OCR slides	`Workflows/SlideExtract.md`

Quick Decision Tree

User wants...
├── Summary of content → SummarizeContent
├── Raw text/transcript → ExtractTranscript
├── Webpage as Markdown → ScrapeWebpage
├── Multiple URLs processed → BatchProcess
└── Visual slides from video → SlideExtract

Environment Setup

Source API keys before any summarize call:

[ -f ${AGENT_HOME}/.env ] && export $(grep -v '^#' ${AGENT_HOME}/.env | xargs)
export YT_DLP_PATH=$(which yt-dlp 2>/dev/null || echo ${HOME}/.local/bin/yt-dlp)

Integration with ExtractWisdom

Summarize extracts and compresses. ExtractWisdom analyzes in depth. Pipeline: summarize --extract → raw text → ExtractWisdom → structured insights.

Scraping Tier Model

Tier 0: WebFetch (built-in, fastest, limited to static HTML)
Tier 1: Summarize --extract --format md (Readability + optional Firecrawl)
Tier 2: Scraping-Skill Bright Data Proxy (anti-bot bypass)
Tier 3: Scraping-Skill Playwright (full browser rendering)
Tier 4: Scraping-Skill Apify Actors (social media platforms)

Use Summarize for Tier 1 before escalating to heavier tools.
