Show HN: Script Snap – Extract code from videos. Developer lmw-lab built Script Snap to solve the frustration of extracting specific code from long YouTube videos. Frustrated by having to scrub through intros and sponsor reads to find a single JSON payload, lmw-lab created a tool that bypasses AI summaries.

Script Snap scans transcripts and visuals to extract code snippets, terminal commands, API payloads, and security warnings, outputting raw Markdown directly usable in IDEs. Unlike generic YouTube-to-text tools, it focuses purely on technical artifacts, stripping out 'vibe' and delivering formatted code. The extraction engine is operational, though the initial Stripe payment processor flag led to a pivot to a manual 'Concierge Alpha' onboarding phase.

The tool represents a focused solution for developers needing precise code extraction from video content without AI summarization fluff.
