Version History

v1.0.1Mar 10, 2026 - Version note by skill developer:

- Changed all API endpoints from api.116ideas.com to api.dizest.ai. - Updated instructions for obtaining an API key: now requires downloading Dizest, creating and activating an account via the app, and then generating a key. - Expanded authentication troubleshooting and guidance for new users. - Minor documentation updates to match new URLs and onboarding flow. - No code changes; documentation only.

What This Skill Does

Sends articles, research papers, PDFs, podcasts, YouTube videos, or plain text to the Dizest API and returns a structured summary. The API handles URL fetching, content extraction, and processing server-side. Supports custom focus instructions and output in different languages.

URL fetching, paywall detection, and content extraction all happen server-side, so no scraping setup or pre-processing is needed on the agent side.

When to use it

  • Summarizing a research paper to extract methodology and key findings
  • Getting a digest of a long YouTube podcast episode
  • Summarizing a PDF market report by URL
  • Condensing a blog post or article into structured notes
  • Summarizing pasted meeting transcripts with a specific focus
