What This Skill Does
Downloads TikTok videos in bulk from a text file of URLs using yt-dlp. Supports custom output directories and skips comment lines in the URL list. Reports successful and failed downloads with reasons.
Handles an entire URL list in one command rather than downloading videos one by one through a browser or manual tool.
When to use it
- Archiving a list of saved TikTok videos locally
- Batch downloading videos from a creator before an account goes private
- Processing a URL list collected from a spreadsheet or notes app
- Saving TikTok content for offline review or editing
- Re-downloading a specific subset by editing the URL file
