YouTube Transcript

kimtaeyoon83/mcp-server-youtube-transcript

The YouTube Transcript Server provides a Model Context Protocol interface for extracting transcripts from YouTube videos, including Shorts, through a single `get_transcript` tool. The tool accepts video URLs or IDs and supports language-specific retrieval with automatic fallback, optional timestamps, and built-in filtering to remove sponsorships and ads based on chapter markers. This server solves the problem of programmatically accessing video captions and subtitles without external dependencies, enabling AI assistants to analyze video content directly.
