Documentation

YouTube MCP Server

Uses `yt-dlp` to download subtitles from YouTube and connects it to claude.ai via Model Context Protocol. Try it by asking Claude, "Summarize the YouTube video >". Requires `yt-dlp` to be installed locally e.g. via Homebrew.

How do I get this working?

1. Install `yt-dlp` (Homebrew and WinGet both work great here)

1. Now, install this via mcp-installer, use the name `@anaisbetts/mcp-youtube`
