Declared compatibility
Compatibility is declared by the source manifest. End-to-end runtime verification is coming, see below.
We're building live execution health for every listing: tool-call success rate, median latency, uptime, and last-checked timestamps, measured, not self-reported. It isn't live yet, so we don't show numbers we can't stand behind.

youtube-transcript-mcp
A simple MCP server that lets LLMs easily get the transcript of YouTube videos.
To install
Add this to your LLM app's MCP settings:
{
"mcpServers": {
"youtube-transcript": {
"command": "bunx",
"args": ["--bun", "-y", "youtube-transcript-mcp"]
}
}
}If you prefer node to bun, you can use npx instead:
{
"mcpServers": {
"youtube-transcript": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "youtube-transcript-mcp"]
}
}
}To use
Just ask your LLM about a YouTube video:
> Summarize this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ
> What are the three key points of this video? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ
> What are some counterpoints to this argument here? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ
