The transcript turns video into a searchable document, so every quote can become a clean citation with the source attached.
When the user copies this passage, the clipboard should include the quoted text, the timestamp in [HH:MM:SS] notation, and the full source URL for a complete citation.
If the search finds nothing, the transcript stays visible and the user can revise the query.
