What does yt-mcp-server actually do?

It is a starter template for creating MCP servers with mcp-framework. It does not come with pre‑built functionality beyond the example tool; developers extend it with their own tools.

How do I add a new tool?

Run mcp add tool my-tool in the project root, then implement the tool class in src/tools/ following the example structure.

How do I run yt-mcp-server locally?

Build the project with npm run build, then add a configuration entry in your Claude Desktop config file using the node command and the absolute path to dist/index.js.

Can yt-mcp-server be published to npm?

Yes. Update package.json, build and test locally with npm link, then run npm publish. After publishing, users can run it with npx yt-mcp-server.

What are the runtime requirements?

Node.js and npm. The project already includes the mcp-framework dependency, so no additional global installation is needed.
