What breaks today

The link lands in chat — then nothing useful comes back.

Today

ChatGPT won't fetch arbitrary YouTube pages. You describe the video from memory or paste a transcript export. That breaks down when you're researching five channels.

With Tubask

Tubask exposes YouTube as MCP tools ChatGPT can call. One signup, same three tools as other clients.
