# Playlist Butler
**The Private Playlist Concierge**

Playlist Butler turns YouTube playlists into a fast, searchable local library — designed to stay snappy even with very large lists.

## What it does (MVP)
- Index the playlist you’re currently viewing
- Browse a cached library instantly
- Export playlist data (CSV/JSON)

## Local-first + privacy-forward
- No accounts
- No uploading your playlist to a server
- No selling your data

## Tags / Releases
Intended Git tags:
- `beta_v01_watchlist_butler` — Watch Later-only baseline (separate build)
