Description
Skipper AI automatically detects sponsor segments in newly uploaded YouTube videos by leveraging YouTube's built-in Ask Gemini feature. When community timestamps aren't available yet, it fills the gap and automatically falls back to SponsorBlock once they are.

Could you build this?
Yes A Chrome extension that parses current video metadata, makes an API call to Gemini (or queries SponsorBlock), and seeks the video element forward is well within solo vibe-coding capabilities.
