#!/usr/bin/env python3 """Scrape a diverse multi-channel cover-video corpus for StegoReels. Reads a channel list (--channels-file, see dataset/config/channels.csv), scrapes each channel's Shorts tab up to a per-channel cap, and tags every clip's .meta.json with that channel's category/split. Wraps yt_scrapper.py for the actual download/filter logic. Verify channel handles before a large run -- creator @handles change and are not guaranteed current.
