Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check TubeChop every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

TubeChop — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can TubeChop do?
It exposes 1 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: create_youtube_clip. 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 TubeChop 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 116 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect TubeChop?
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 will need your own credentials: it refuses anonymous clients.
Does TubeChop need an API key?
Yes. Every time we knock, TubeChop answers with an authorization challenge instead of its tool list — that is how we know it is running and gated rather than broken. Bring your own credentials and it will talk.
How fast is TubeChop?
It answers our handshake in 116 ms on average, which is faster than 89% 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.
