Browser-Side API Keys: Your LLM API keys are now stored securely in your browser’s localStorage. They never touch the backend database, making this safe to host publicly.
YouTube Bot Bypass: Added pytubefix as an automated fallback to bypass YouTube’s aggressive “Sign in to prove you’re not a bot” datacenter blocks (PO Token support enabled).
Vercel Compatibility: The real-time progress tracker now seamlessly falls back to fast HTTP Polling if Vercel’s Edge network blocks the WebSocket connection.
I created and open-sourced “OpenClip” - a complete local-first AI video clipping engine.
It automatically turns long YouTube videos into ready-to-post short clips using AI (Whisper for transcription, MediaPipe for face tracking, LLMs for captioning).
Tech: Next.js + FastAPI + yt-dlp + FFmpeg
Fully open-source under MIT license with detailed README, setup scripts and active development.
