What is YouTube Transcript Server?

YouTube Transcript Server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables retrieval of transcripts (captions/subtitles) from YouTube videos. It provides a simple interface – the get_transcript tool – for AI assistants like Claude to extract video transcripts by URL or video ID, with optional language selection.

For Claude Desktop, add the server configuration to your claude_desktop_config.json using the npx command as shown in the README. Then invoke the get_transcript tool with a YouTube URL or video ID and an optional language code (e.g., "en", "ko").

常见问题

What does the server do?

It provides a tool called `get_transcript` that retrieves the transcript (captions/subtitles) of a YouTube video when given a valid video URL or ID and an optional language code.

What are the runtime requirements?

Node.js 18 or higher and npm/yarn are required for development and running the server.

Where does the transcript data come from?

The server retrieves transcripts directly from YouTube's public caption/subtitle data; no local storage is involved.

Are there any limitations on transcript availability?

Yes – the server returns an error if the video has no captions, if the requested language is unavailable, or if the URL/ID is invalid.

What transport and authentication does the server use?

The server communicates over stdio (standard input/output) as per the MCP protocol. No authentication or API keys are required.
