Lines where the two differ have a tinted background and bold values. Where the data itself says which value is better (more marketplaces, a larger figure of the same marketplace, a fresher release, a verified mark on a marketplace that lists both), the better one is also marked green with ▲ and the worse one red with ▼. Where it runs, the transport, the tools, the settings, hooks, the bundle's parts, the licence and the week's changes are marked only as different: more or fewer is not better in itself.
What each says it does
watch-video
watch-video gives Claude eyes and ears for any video — local files, public URLs (YouTube, Loom, Vimeo, TikTok, ~1,500 sites via yt-dlp), or Jira attachments fetched directly via API token. One command produces a complete evidence bundle: timestamped JPEG frames, a Whisper transcript (local faster-whisper or hosted Groq / OpenAI), optional OCR for on-screen text, and three report formats — report.md, self-contained report.html with base64-embedded frames, and corporate-friendly report.docx. Key features: - LLM-driven highlights: pass a prompt ("summarize the rate decision and inflation outlook", "identify the bug and when it occurs") and Claude picks the N most relevant moments with frame + reason + verbatim quote. - Smart dedup with perceptual hash + transcript-aware protection: typically drops 40-60% of redundant frames on screen recordings without losing narrated moments. - OCR for screen-recording UIs: Tesseract with 2x upscale + auto-invert + PSM 6, output to grep-able ocr.txt. - Per-step content-hash cac
ScriptHaul
Free YouTube transcripts, no API key: videos, channel lists, latest uploads, bulk download links.
