YouTube
The YouTube MCP server connects AI agents to the YouTube Data API. Agents can get video details, search videos and channels, fetch video transcripts, look up single or multiple channels, find creators from video mentions, list a channel's videos, and read playlists and their items — for research, summarization, and content workflows.
