💯 YouTube Transcript + YouTube Search MCP for AI Agents missed one check this week

Everything else answered, so this is steady rather than shaky. We check every 15 minutes, which is how a one-off gets told apart from the start of a pattern, and how you hear about the next one within the hour instead of from your users.

💯 YouTube Transcript + YouTube Search MCP for AI Agents — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no tool list for 💯 YouTube Transcript + YouTube Search MCP for AI Agents?
The server answered our handshake with an authorization challenge, so it is running — 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: 100.0% of checks in the last 24 hours got a reply.
Is 💯 YouTube Transcript + YouTube Search MCP for AI Agents working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 153 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect 💯 YouTube Transcript + YouTube Search MCP for AI Agents?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address. You sign in through your browser once and the client keeps the session: no key to copy, and it refuses anonymous clients.
How do you sign in to 💯 YouTube Transcript + YouTube Search MCP for AI Agents?
No API key is involved. 💯 YouTube Transcript + YouTube Search MCP for AI Agents answers our knock with an OAuth challenge, so you authorise it once in your browser and the client keeps the session. That is also why we see no tool list: it will not describe itself to an anonymous client, and that is the server working as intended, not a fault.
How fast is 💯 YouTube Transcript + YouTube Search MCP for AI Agents?
It answers our handshake in 153 ms on average, which is faster than 80% of all working MCP servers we measure. That puts it in the quick quarter of the ecosystem. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is 💯 YouTube Transcript + YouTube Search MCP for AI Agents open source?
The code is open source: it is published under the MIT licence and 13 stars on GitHub. The licence covers the code in the repository, not the hosted service at transcriptapi.com, which runs on its operator's own terms.
