Download
Downloads YouTube videos to your ~/Downloads folder using yt-dlp.
What it does
- Takes a YouTube URL as input
- Downloads the best available quality (video + audio merged to MP4)
- Saves to ~/Downloads with the video title as filename
Usage

Or just give me the URL and I'll run it for you.
