Transcriptor MCP

Transcriptor MCP is an AI assistant server that enables agents to watch videos and extract structured data. It provides read-only tools to fetch transcripts, subtitles, chapters, metadata, and still frames from YouTube and over ten other video platforms like Vimeo, TikTok, and Twitch. It supports interactive widgets in compatible clients and allows for video search and playlist processing.

Endpoint and access

OAuth sign-in: the first time you connect, your client opens the vendor's own authorization prompt in a browser.

Connect from your client

Each snippet registers the same endpoint; pick the client you use.

This server is operated by the named third party. Listing and endpoint checks are not an endorsement or a security audit. Review the operator's permissions, terms, and data handling before connecting. How listings are checked and corrected.

Claude Code

Run this once in a terminal. It registers the remote server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.
Claude Code configuration
claude mcp add --transport http transcriptor-mcp-mcpal https://transcriptor.gateway.mcpal.io/mcp

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).
Codex configuration
codex mcp add transcriptor-mcp-mcpal --url https://transcriptor.gateway.mcpal.io/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable transcriptor-mcp-mcpal in your MCP settings.
Cursor configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "transcriptor-mcp-mcpal": {
      "url": "https://transcriptor.gateway.mcpal.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cline

Merge this into cline_mcp_settings.json (Cline → MCP Servers → Configure).
Cline configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "transcriptor-mcp-mcpal": {
      "type": "streamableHttp",
      "url": "https://transcriptor.gateway.mcpal.io/mcp",
      "disabled": false
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Merge this server into .vscode/mcp.json. Use MCP: List Servers to start transcriptor-mcp-mcpal and inspect its tools.
VS Code configuration
{
  "servers": {
    "transcriptor-mcp-mcpal": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://transcriptor.gateway.mcpal.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Gemini CLI

Run this once. It writes .gemini/settings.json in the current project; pass --scope user for ~/.gemini/settings.json.
Gemini CLI configuration
gemini mcp add --transport http transcriptor-mcp-mcpal https://transcriptor.gateway.mcpal.io/mcp

Claude Desktop

Open Claude Settings > Connectors > Add custom connector, enter this server URL and enable it for the conversation. This is a manual remote-connector handoff, not a desktop JSON configuration.
Claude Desktop configuration
https://transcriptor.gateway.mcpal.io/mcp

Windsurf

Merge this into ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json, then refresh MCP in Cascade. Windsurf remote servers use serverUrl, not url.
Windsurf configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "transcriptor-mcp-mcpal": {
      "serverUrl": "https://transcriptor.gateway.mcpal.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}
