Did you setup your environment variables in your bashrc` or ~/.zshrc?
Did you do fabric --setup or ./fabric --setup to fetch the patterns?

Did you setup your environment variables in your bashrc` or ~/.zshrc?

Yes.
Setup:

#Golang environment variables
export GOROOT=/usr/local/go
export GOPATH=$HOME/go

# Update PATH to include GOPATH and GOROOT binaries
export PATH=$GOPATH/bin:$GOROOT/bin:$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH

Did you do fabric --setup or ./fabric --setup to fetch the patterns?

Yes.
Setup:

[1]	OpenAI (configured)
[14]	Default AI Vendor and Model [required] (configured)
[15]	Patterns - Downloads patterns [required] (configured)
[16]	YouTube - to grab video transcripts and comments (configured)
[17]	Language - Default AI Vendor Output Language (configured)

Check the readme, different ways to add the patterns path depending on your system.
For example on windows:
You can add the below code for the equivalent aliases inside PowerShell by running notepad $PROFILE inside a PowerShell window:

Path to the patterns directory

$patternsPath = Join-Path $HOME ".config/fabric/patterns"
foreach ($patternDir in Get-ChildItem -Path $patternsPath -Directory) {
$patternName = $patternDir.Name

The error you were kicked indicates that fabric could not find a pattern names "s" so the command you crafted is not working as you expected it. A more stable, or at least more easily readable, way to craft your command would be:

fabric -y https://youtu.be/vuchyiyyOCw?si=MtF-NL1ntY-PVt6p | fabric -sp youtube_summary

In the above proposed command, you will notice there are two fabric commands stitched together, it will pipe | the output of the youtube transcript to another fabric command that calls the youtube_summary pattern.

However, your real trouble is likely the order of your flags. Your command uses -ps which is likely making the -p immediately call s which you intend to be a flag, not a pattern. When you use the pattern flags, whatever is immediately after the pattern flag will be called as a pattern. So you should try -sp instead. Then the command should work as expected

should provide any clarity you need.

That was the problem, I'm even ashamed to admit it.
Thank you very much for your time and help!
