Subtitle Toolkit MCP
An MCP server providing eight tools for subtitle processing, including format conversion, cleaning auto-generated noise, retiming, validation, merging, splitting, encoding repair, and text-to-subtitle generation. It operates with no authentication and stores no files.
Endpoint and access
No sign-in to connect and list tools. Individual tools may still need a vendor account, credentials, or permissions; check the documented prerequisites.

convert_subtitle
Convert subtitle text between formats. Reads SRT, WebVTT, ASS/SSA, YouTube SBV and TTML/DFXP; writes SRT, WebVTT, ASS, CSV or plain text. Format is auto-detected unless `from` is given.

},
"content": {
"type": "string",
"description": "The full subtitle file text."
}
}
}clean_subtitles
Strip noise from auto-generated subtitles: HTML/WebVTT tags, ASS override codes, music and sound-effect cues, speaker labels, empty cues and duplicate lines. Returns the subtitle file in SRT or WebVTT.
{
"type": "object",
"required": [

},
"remove_speaker_labels": {
"type": "boolean",
"description": "Strip leading \"SPEAKER:\" prefixes. Default false — enable only if you want them gone."
}
}
}retime_subtitles
Fix subtitle timing. Use offset_seconds for a uniform shift (whole track early/late). Use ratio, or from_fps/to_fps, for progressive drift caused by a frame-rate mismatch. Pass exactly one of the three.
{
"type": "object",
"required": [
"content"
],
"properties": {
"ratio": {
"type": "number",
"description": "Scale all timings by this factor (new = old x ratio). e.g. 1.0427 for a 25→23.976 fps fix."

"type": "number",
"description": "The frame rate of the actual video (used with from_fps)."
},
"content": {
"type": "string",
"description": "The full subtitle file text."
},
"from_fps": {
"type": "number",
"description": "The frame rate the subtitles were authored for (used with to_fps)."
},
"offset_seconds": {
"type": "number",
"description": "Shift every cue by this many seconds. Negative = earlier. e.g. -2.5"
}
}
}check_subtitle_timing
Audit subtitle readability and produce a report: reading speed (CPS), cue durations that are too short or too long, lines that are too wide, more than two lines, and overlapping cues. Returns a formatted report listing every flagged cue.
{
"type": "object",
"required": [
"content"
],
"properties": {
"content": {
"type": "string",
"description": "The full subtitle file text."
},
"max_cps": {

},
"min_duration_seconds": {
"type": "number",
"description": "Minimum cue duration in seconds. Default 0.833 (Netflix 5/6s)."
}
}
}merge_subtitles
Append one subtitle track after another (CD1 + CD2, or a second language track). The second track is offset so it starts after the last cue of the first, plus an optional gap.
{
"type": "object",
"required": [
"content",
"append_content"
],
"properties": {
"to": {
"enum": [
"srt",
"vtt"

"gap_seconds": {
"type": "number",
"description": "Extra gap between the two tracks, in seconds. Default 0."
},
"append_content": {
"type": "string",
"description": "The subtitle file text to append."
}
}
}split_subtitles
Split one subtitle track into two parts at a given timecode, keeping original timecodes. Use the `at` argument plus `part` to fetch either half.
{
"type": "object",
"required": [
"content",
"at"
],
"properties": {
"at": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Split point. Accepts \"45:00\", \"1:02:03\", \"90\" (seconds) or \"1:02:03.500\"."
},
"to": {
"enum": [
"srt",
"vtt"
],
"type": "string",
"description": "Output format. Default: same as the input."
},
"part": {
"enum": [
"a",
"b"
],
"type": "string",
"description": "Which half to return. Default \"a\" (before the split point)."
},
"content": {
"type": "string",
"description": "The full subtitle file text."
}
}
}fix_subtitle_encoding
Repair mojibake — text where UTF-8 bytes were decoded as a single-byte encoding (cp1252/Latin-1 or cp1251). Symptoms: "é", "’", "привет". Returns the repaired text and how many passes were applied.
{
"type": "object",
"required": [
"content"
],
"properties": {
"twice": {
"type": "boolean",
"description": "Set true when the text was mis-decoded twice (nested mojibake). Default false."
},
"content": {
"type": "string",
"description": "The garbled subtitle text."
},
"read_as": {
"enum": [
"auto",
"cp1252",
"cp1251"
],
"type": "string",
"description": "Which encoding the file was wrongly read as. Default \"auto\" (tries cp1252 then cp1251)."
}
}
}text_to_subtitles
Turn a plain transcript (one line per caption) into an SRT file with evenly spaced timecodes. Timing is a starting point, not a real transcription — say so when you present the result.
{
"type": "object",
"required": [
"content"
],
"properties": {
"content": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Plain text, one caption per line. Blank lines are skipped."
},
"start_seconds": {
"type": "number",
"description": "Timecode of the first cue, in seconds. Default 0."
},
"duration_seconds": {
"type": "number",
"description": "Seconds each cue stays on screen. Default 2.5."
},
"max_chars_per_cue": {
"type": "number",
"description": "Split longer lines into several cues at word boundaries. Default 0 = never split."
}
}
