MCP YouTube Transcript
An MCP server retrieving transcripts of YouTube videos
Beschreibung vom Entwickler (englisches Original)
Give AI agents a creator's video pipeline: Shorts, thumbnails and YouTube publishing.
Diese drei werden nie zu einer Punktzahl zusammengefasst: Meinungen, Messungen und Beliebtheit sind verschiedene Dinge.
Für diesen Server haben wir noch keine Zusammenfassung in einfacher Sprache geschrieben. Unten stehen die Fakten, die wir aus der Registry gelesen haben.

An MCP server retrieving transcripts of YouTube videos
GA4 MCP server for AI agents: schema discovery, server-side aggregation, analysis-ready defaults.
AI video summarizer: summarize and transcribe YouTube, Bilibili, TikTok and podcast videos.
Unverändert aus dem Repo des Entwicklers übernommen. PopNx MCP hat den Inhalt weder geprüft noch empfiehlt es ihn. HTML, Bilder und Skripte wurden entfernt. Links führen von dieser Website weg.
Give any AI agent a creator's whole video pipeline. Turn one long-form episode into Shorts, thumbnails, show notes and a podcast feed — then publish to the creator's own YouTube channel.
Works with Grok Bot, Grok Build, Cursor, Claude Code and Meta Muse. One MCP connection, OAuth 2.1, and no API key anywhere.
Agents orchestrate. Longwave renders and publishes. The agent never downloads video, never holds Google credentials, and never drives YouTube Studio.
Point Longwave at one long-form episode, podcast or YouTube video and a whole distribution stack comes back:
YouTube and X publish automatically. Every other clip is rendered as a captioned vertical file ready to drop into Reels, TikTok and LinkedIn. Longwave is not a party to those platforms' terms and never contacts them; the creator's own agent performs that step from the creator's session.
An agent can already cut video and drive a browser. Two things it cannot get for itself:
1. A verified YouTube upload grant. Google approved Longwave for youtube.force-ssl — production mode, no user cap, no "unverified app" screen. The creator connects once, and Longwave delegates scoped access to the agent. Standing up your own integration means OAuth app review and Google verification before the first upload.
2. A pipeline, not a command. Cutting a Short is the easy part. Longwave also does the captions, the title and description, the thumbnail, the playlist routing, the daily upload caps, the cross-platform schedule, the podcast RSS feed and the retry when an upload fails halfway.
So this is not a wrapper around yt-dlp and a Studio bookmarklet. It is the publishing authority, exposed as fifteen tools.
grok plugin install Longwave-Media/longwave-plugin
Or add it as a self-hosted catalog source:
grok plugin marketplace add Longwave-Media/longwave-plugin
Both work with no review. Cursor and Claude Code read the same files; Muse builds its own MCP client from the URL.
Nothing to configure, and no credentials live in this repo. An unauthenticated call to the MCP endpoint returns:
HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized
WWW-Authenticate: Bearer resource_metadata="https://www.longwave.media/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource"
A conformant client follows that, registers itself, opens a browser, and the creator signs in and approves. PKCE S256 is required. This is deliberate: Agent Plugins v1.0.0 §7.2.1 forbids embedding secrets in headers, and OAuth discovery is how the spec expects authorization to work.
https://www.longwave.media/api/mcp (Streamable HTTP, stateless)https://www.longwave.media/.well-known/oauth-protected-resourcehttps://www.longwave.media/.well-known/oauth-authorization-serverFifteen tools — enough to run a creator's clip pipeline end to end, and deliberately no more. The surface is a deny-by-default allowlist, not a mirror of the API, so a tool exists here because it has an ownership-checked backing route.
Create and inspect — granted on first connect
| Tool | Does |
|---|---|
account_status | Channel connected? Credits left? Call this first. |
create_shorts_job | Cut a long-form episode into Shorts. Free — credits are spent on publish. |
get_job | Progress, clip count and errors for a job. |
list_clips | What was produced, with per-platform status and live URLs. |
create_supercut | Assemble one longer cut from a source video or from existing clips. |
Read — granted on first connect
| Tool | Does |
|---|---|
list_episodes | The creator's long-form catalogue, newest first, with status. |
get_episode | One episode in full: titles, notes, chapters, transcript, podcast state. |
get_insights | Channel-level summary: episode counts, recurring topics, hook types. |
get_content_intelligence | Longwave's written analysis of what to make next. |
get_channel_overview | Connected platforms and how each is performing. |
list_playlists | Playlists, and which one is the upload destination. |
list_thumbnail_styles | The thumbnail style catalogue. |
Change something public — a separate approval, every time
| Tool | Does |
|---|---|
publish_shorts | Publish Shorts to YouTube, with scheduling. |
reschedule_post | Move a queued post to a different hour, or unschedule it. |
approve_thumbnail | Publish an AI-generated thumbnail on the episode. |
Publishing and thumbnail changes are not granted on first connect — they are a step-up the creator approves separately, because both change something public. The server asks for the extra permission with 403 + WWW-Authenticate: ... error="insufficient_scope".
tools/list returns the whole catalogue regardless of grant, so a client can see what exists and ask for it; the grant is enforced on the call. `tools/list` is authoritative and carries each tool's full JSON Schema — the tables above are for someone reading this repo.
Every mutating tool accepts an idempotency_key. Retry a timed-out call with the same key and you get the original result rather than a second job or a second public post.
The creator starts free: 200 credits on signup, no card, and they do not expire.
Credits are charged to the creator per Short that actually publishes — nothing for a failed render, nothing for a clip that is never posted.
| Action | Credits |
|---|---|
| Publish a Short | 1 |
| Publish a Short on autopilot | 1.5 |
| Publish to X through the shared app quota | 4 |
| Upload a full long-form episode | 5, plus 1 per GB |
The agent never handles payment. It holds no card and cannot reach a checkout. When the balance runs low a tool returns a top_up_url; the agent's job is to hand it to the creator and stop.
Longwave is not a party to any third-party platform's terms and never contacts them. We describe the capability; the creator's agent performs the action.
Two ecosystems describe plugin packages differently, and a client that finds no MCP config installs a plugin with zero tools. Both layouts are therefore shipped:
| Path | Convention |
|---|---|
plugin.json | Agent Plugins v1.0.0 — closed schema, fixed location |
mcp.json | Agent Plugins v1.0.0 — transport streamable-http |
.grok-plugin/plugin.json | Grok / xAI marketplace — verified against xAI's own vendored external_plugins/neon and third-party getsentry/plugin-grok |
.mcp.json | Grok MCP config — transport http |
skills/longwave/SKILL.md | Shared by both — the instructions the model reads |
.grok-plugin/marketplace.json | Self-hosted catalog (tracks repo HEAD) |
assets/logo.svg | Listing logo — the Groundswell mark, monochrome currentColor per brand canon |
assets/icon.svg | 1:1 marketplace logotype — Groundswell on the ink plate, full-bleed 1024. This is the one a listing tile wants, because a monochrome mark with no plate disappears on a light or busy background |
Longwave is a product of Signal Group Limited (New Zealand · NZBN 9429035771678 · Co. No 1396666). The dashboard repo's scripts/verify-plugin-package.ts validates this package before any release — 58 checks covering both manifest conventions, author agreement, a single MCP endpoint across both configs, and drift between the skill's allowed-tools, this README and the live tool manifest.
Entries live in xai-org/plugin-marketplace, where the source must be SHA-pinned to a full 40-character lowercase commit — scripts/validate-catalog.py enforces that, and Grok re-verifies git rev-parse HEAD == sha after cloning, so a force-push cannot silently ship new code. xAI also expects the source to be an organisation repository; ours is Longwave-Media.
git ls-remote https://github.com/Longwave-Media/longwave-plugin.git HEAD
Then add the entry, regenerate the component index, validate, and open a PR:
python3 scripts/generate-plugin-index.py
python3 scripts/validate-catalog.py
Re-pin `sha` on every release — never open a parallel entry.
Grok Bot installs its plugins — Settings → Plugins — from the Cursor Marketplace, which is a different surface from Grok Build's catalog above. Submission is a form, not a pull request: paste this repository's URL at https://cursor.com/marketplace/publish. The Cursor team manually reviews a new listing and every update, so there is no SHA pin to maintain — the listing tracks the default branch.
This package is already in the format Cursor accepts: a root plugin.json per the Agent Plugins specification, with mcp.json, skills/ and README.md alongside it. keywords and the description are what a marketplace search matches, which is why the manifest carries the plain words a creator would type — youtube, shorts, reels, video, clips, podcast — and not just the product vocabulary.
This package collects nothing and stores nothing. Anything the creator acts on is handled by the hosted Longwave service under its own terms: https://www.longwave.media/terms and https://www.longwave.media/privacy. YouTube credentials never leave Longwave's servers, and the agent receives only an opaque, scoped Longwave token.
