YouTube MCP
A local-first MCP server that lets AI assistants search YouTube, manage your channel and read your analytics, and asks you to approve changes to your channel and content first. It runs on your own machine over stdio, keeps its OAuth tokens and working data on your disk, and never starts a network listener unless you ask for one.
