fetch-video-captions

Retrieves existing captions for one YouTube video and saves them as an SRT file with timecodes plus a plain-text transcript under date-prefixed names in a local data directory, preferring author-uploaded tracks over machine-generated ones, walking a language priority list, and reusing cached files on repeat requests; every download, first creation of a cache file, and replacement of a cached file requires the user's explicit consent. Use when the user wants the subtitles, captions, or transcript text of a specific YouTube video. Not for downloading the video or its audio, transcribing speech to text, or summarizing the transcript.
