Labsco — the lab for AI agents, MCP servers & skills

YouTube MCP Server

Uses yt-dlp to download subtitles from YouTube and connects it to claude.ai via Model Context Protocol. Try it by asking Claude, "Summarize the YouTube video < >". Requires yt-dlp to be installed locally e.g. via Homebrew.

How do I get this working?

Install yt-dlp (Homebrew and WinGet both work great here)
Now, install this via mcp-installer, use the name @anaisbetts/mcp-youtube

This tool doesn't publish a standard install command — the repository README on GitHub covers its setup.

No common issues documented yet. If you hit a problem, the repository's GitHub Issues page is the best place to look.
