Open-source MCP server giving Claude first-class access to YouTube video transcripts as callable tools. Captions-first via yt-dlp with Whisper fallback for videos without subtitles. 26 unit tests, pip-installable, works with Claude Desktop and Claude Code.
These files are yunlinwu/youtube-transcript-mcp's own configuration. They tell Claude Code how to work on this repository, so they are not mods to install elsewhere. Copy one as a starting point and replace the parts that are about this project.
