Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

extract
extract_url
Start an AI extraction of a YouTube video, podcast, article, or PDF URL on CoreWise. Returns an extraction_id immediately after initialization. Initialization normally takes a few seconds but can take up to 2 minutes for videos without captions or for PDFs. The extraction itself then runs for 1-7 minutes: poll with get_extraction every 20-30 seconds until status is 'completed'. Results include a cross-validated synthesis plus per-model summaries. Requires an API key (create one at corewise.video, Profile page, 'API & MCP Keys'). Each call consumes one extraction from the key owner's monthly quota.
extraction
get_extraction
Get the status and results of a CoreWise extraction by id. While status is 'processing', poll every 20-30 seconds. When status is 'completed' the response contains the structured synthesis (JSON object: summary, takeaways, highlights, notable quotes) and per-model markdown summaries. Works on your own extractions (API key required) and on public community extractions.
public
search_public_extractions
Search CoreWise's public community library of extractions (videos, podcasts, articles, and PDFs already analyzed by other users). Returns titles, snippets, and share URLs. Useful to check whether a video has already been extracted before starting a new extraction. No API key required.
transcript
get_transcript
Get the raw source transcript (or article/PDF text) of a CoreWise extraction by id. Available as soon as the extraction has been initialized — no need to wait for 'completed'. Transcripts can be very long, so results are paged: pass 'offset' and 'max_chars' to fetch further chunks when 'truncated' is true. Works on your own extractions (API key required) and on public community extractions.

CoreWise — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can CoreWise do?
It exposes 4 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: extract_url, get_extraction, get_transcript, search_public_extractions. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is CoreWise working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 92 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 499 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect CoreWise?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does CoreWise need an API key?
No. CoreWise completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 4 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is CoreWise?
It answers our handshake in 499 ms on average, which is faster than 22% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
