Youtube Channels
Wraps TranscriptAPI's channel endpoints so you can resolve handles, pull the latest 15 uploads with exact view counts via RSS (free), paginate through entire channel histories at 100 videos per page (1 credit), or search within a creator's catalog. The latest endpoint is especially handy for monitoring channels without burning credits. All endpoints accept @handles, channel URLs, or UC IDs interchangeably. You'll need a TranscriptAPI key (free tier gives 100 credits), and don't forget the User-Agent header or Cloudflare will 403 you. Good for building dashboards, tracking creators, or feeding channel data into larger workflows without scraping.

Setup
If $TRANSCRIPT_API_KEY is not set, read references/auth-setup.md and follow the instructions there to get and store the key.
Required Headers
Every request needs two headers:
- Authorization:
Bearer $TRANSCRIPT_API_KEY - User-Agent: your agent's name and version if known (e.g.
HermesAgent/0.11.0,ClaudeCode/1.0). Version is optional — agent name alone is fine. Do not omit this header or send a bare default — Cloudflare will return a 403 (error code 1010) and block the request.
API Reference
Full OpenAPI spec: transcriptapi.com/openapi.json — consult this for the latest parameters and schemas.
All channel endpoints accept flexible input — @handle, channel URL, or UC... channel ID. No need to resolve first.
GET /api/v2/youtube/channel/resolve — FREE
Convert @handle, URL, or UC... ID to canonical channel ID.
