It reads the clipboard, adds the URL to a yt-dlp script, downloads the video, then switches to my YouTube Jellyfin folder and copies the download across. But instead of opening a terminal in that folder and copy/pasting the script from a .txt file I used to use, it’s just one click. Three if you count clicking the share button in Freetube and then clicking the ‘copy link’ button.
If you’re so inclined, that’s mozilla native but it’ll port to most browsers. You can install local for dev and test before you sign and push to the official addons repo at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/extensions/
