Now we have to wonder if they ran Mythos on their Calude source and it missed it or why they chose not to run it.
I do agree and wonder why that's not marked as security. In their security page [0] it says:
> Since exploitability is not proven for many of the fixes we make, do not expect the relevant commit message to say "SECURITY FIX!".
Does that mean they considered it not to be exploitable?
I really don't know, all I know is that usually when you find a critical vulnerability, and it's patched, it comes with a CVE, even a low one, that's the process for the past 27 years when the CVE program started (as old as the vulnerability itself it seems..) but maybe with AI-native, CVEs don't matter because everyone will just rewrite their clean room open source alternative (I wish this was a joke...)
It works, it is popular, sure. Claude's code may be barely old enough to have suffered through its true long-term maintainability problems. They probably also haven't had a lot of rotation/attrition in their staff.
you're right! i was only looking at the mobile version.
Sucks it's not there cause I typically don't have my pc around when infront of the TV and wanna search something.
I made a little TUI last month for searching within a channel! It supports before: / after:, fuzzy/exact/regex matching, lets you order by upload date/views/duration, lets you search over just a video's titles or descriptions, etc: https://github.com/nolenroyalty/yt-browse
The vast majority of my youtube watching is "go to a specific channel and try to find a certain kind of video" so it drives me nuts that youtube channel search is so bad (and afaik you can't search a channel on mobile?). I end up using my tool to find a bunch of videos and get them into my history to watch on my ipad.
n.b. my tool downloads all video metadata for a channel and then searches over it locally, so it's pretty slow the first time you search a channel (results are cached for 24 hours though).
I've had ctrl+f work for searching within the transcript on the page recently. I assumed it wouldn't due to lazy loading, but was surprised because the video I tried it on was quite long.
filmot.com exists too (found it on here, currently can't get past the cloudflare captcha to double check), but I have no idea how much of youtube's transcripts it has archived.

That was previously the case for me, none of the results outside of the current view would show up.
I just went to try, and I noticed that you can actually search in a transcript now!? There's a search bar
Google of today would absolutely get steamrolled by any of the search engines it used to compete against. Now granted the web of today is mostly a toxic waste pile vs more of a cluttered basement back then.
