Example prompt: Can you download the YouTube video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ and give me a downloadable link for the mp4 version?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need programmatic, pay-per-use YouTube media downloading without managing your own scraping infrastructure. Suitable for agents that need one-off or occasional YouTube downloads billed in USDC micro-payments rather than committing to a subscription-based video download API.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent YouTube URL returns an error
- Private or age-restricted videos may be inaccessible
- Geo-restricted content may fail depending on server location
- YouTube API rate limits or policy changes may cause failures
- Unsupported media format requests may return an error
- Network timeouts for very large video files
