Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no tool list for ๐Ÿ’ฏ YouTube Transcript + YouTube Search MCP for AI Agents?
The server answered our handshake with an authorization challenge, so it is running โ€” but it will not describe its tools to an anonymous client. To see them you need to connect with your own credentials. We record it as alive, not as broken: 98.9% of checks in the last 24 hours got a reply.

Copy the ready config from this page โ€” we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads.
