Documentation
Overview
Downloader TikTok Videos downloads the latest video (or multiple videos) from a public TikTok account using yt-dlp. Read this documentation fully before writing any code or running commands.
Prerequisites
This skill requires yt-dlp (and optionally ffmpeg for audio/video merging). โ ๏ธ The commands below modify your host environment (install packages system-wide). Run them only if yt-dlp is not already installed and you are comfortable doing so. pip install -U yt-dlp --break-system-packages # Linux system Python # or pip install -U yt-dlp # virtualenv / macOS yt-dlp --version # verify install
Operation Types
This skill supports four operation types. Determine which one(s) the user needs: Quick Download โ Download the latest video from an account Bulk Download โ Download the N most recent videos Metadata Only โ Retrieve info/stats without downloading the video Direct Video URL โ Download from a specific video URL
1. Quick Download โ Latest Video from an Account
When to use: User provides a @username or profile URL Steps: Normalize the username (strip @ if present) Build the profile URL: https://www.tiktok.com/@{username} Fetch metadata for the latest video (--playlist-items 1 --no-download) Show the user the video info (title, date, duration) Download with the optimal command Confirm success and provide the file path Command: yt-dlp \ --playlist-items 1 \ --format "bestvideo[ext=mp4]+bestaudio[ext=m4a]/best[ext=mp4]/best" \ --merge-output-format mp4 \ --output "./%(uploader_id)s_%(upload_date)s_%(id)s.%(ext)s" \ "https://www.tiktok.com/@{username}" Verify the result: ls -lh ./*.mp4
2. Bulk Download โ N Most Recent Videos
When to use: User wants multiple videos Steps: Ask how many videos (if not specified, default = 5) Build the command with --playlist-items 1-N Add --download-archive to avoid duplicates Download with progress output List downloaded files Command: yt-dlp \ --playlist-items 1-{N} \ --format "bestvideo[ext=mp4]+bestaudio[ext=m4a]/best[ext=mp4]/best" \ --merge-output-format mp4 \ --download-archive ./tiktok_archive.txt \ --output "./%(uploader_id)s/%(upload_date)s_%(id)s.%(ext)s" \ "https://www.tiktok.com/@{username}"
3. Metadata Only
When to use: User wants video info without downloading Read: references/metadata.md for all available fields and the full command Quick command: yt-dlp \ --playlist-items 1 \ --skip-download \ --write-info-json \ --print "%(uploader_id)s | %(upload_date)s | %(duration)ss | %(view_count)s views | %(title)s" \ "https://www.tiktok.com/@{username}"
4. Direct Video URL
When to use: User provides a direct video URL Command: yt-dlp \ --format "bestvideo[ext=mp4]+bestaudio[ext=m4a]/best[ext=mp4]/best" \ --merge-output-format mp4 \ --output "./%(uploader_id)s_%(id)s.%(ext)s" \ "{video_url}"
