get_youtube_transcript
Fetch the transcript for any YouTube video — as markdown (with metadata) or structured JSON. Drop the output straight into summarizers, search indexes, or AI pipelines.
How to use it
Project documentation lists get_youtube_transcript for the Youtube MCP MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), then check which tools your installed version makes available. Tool availability can depend on configuration and credentials. A server handshake does not verify this tool’s behavior. See the full listing for setup details.
