- get_yt_dlp_path() no longer implicitly executes a bare "yt-dlp" from PATH (on Windows that lookup includes the CWD, so a planted binary in a writable directory could be run). A system yt-dlp is used only behind the explicit advanced.allow_system_ytdlp config opt-in, and then always as a which()-resolved absolute path. Analysis and download refuse to exec the not-installed sentinel. - Analysis subprocesses now run in their own session and the whole process group is killed on timeout, so deno grandchildren no longer leak; partial stderr is preserved and logged, and output decoding is pinned to utf-8 with replacement (Windows locale codecs crashed on non-UTF8 titles). - Flat-playlist entries are filtered for None (private/deleted first video no longer breaks analysis). - update_yt_dlp() normalizes the sentinel to Path, unbreaking the pip fallback path that crashed on str.exists().

SageTube
A watch-first YouTube client for the desktop — search, browse channels and playlists, follow subscriptions, and stream videos in an embedded mpv player, with full yt-dlp download capability inherited from YTSage.
SageTube is a fork of YTSage by oop7 (MIT). The original YTSage documentation is preserved at docs/UPSTREAM_README.md.
Status
Under active development. See the upstream README for the downloader feature set, which remains fully functional.
