This MeTube in a local docker container seems to do what OP wants:
https://github.com/alexta69/metube
tag /u/kutu-dev
I have MeTube running, it does not what OP wants (unless he reconsidered) because it downloads the files to server storage.
But you can just start the container on his PC, then the Server is his PC?
Sure but then you can just start yt-dlp itself, with a GUI, no need to install a docker environment...

Windows https://github.com/kannagi0303/yt-dlp-gui
Mac https://github.com/section83/MacYTDL
So, you're saying the link I posted actually does do what the OP wants?
Well, he could also install a VM, install Linux and then install MeTube and then download the files to his PC. So, yes, installing MeTube in a docker on his Desktop PC, does what OP wants with a completely unnecessary overhead of complexity because there are yt-dlp clients for virtually every os. It's a single binary on windows so there is absolutely zero reasons to install it in a docker container :)
