_ is it live, free and safe measured by this hub
Is YouTube Transcript + YouTube Search MCP live?
Yes — it answered the hub's last check (checked 3h ago). It answered 99% of checks over the last 30 days.
Is YouTube Transcript + YouTube Search MCP free to use?
Not anonymously — it asks for a key or a login before it will serve. Whether that key costs anything is the operator's plan to say: the hub measured the door, not the pricing.
What tools does YouTube Transcript + YouTube Search MCP have?
13 tools: list_channel_videos, get_youtube_transcript, search_youtube, get_transcript_languages, list_channel_playlists, get_channel_banner, get_related_videos, list_playlist_videos, ….
Is YouTube Transcript + YouTube Search MCP safe to connect?
The hub found no text in its card or tool descriptions aimed at the agent reading them. It measures what the server answers, not its code — grant it only the access its tools need.

Price is per tool, not per server. An agent whose handshake is open can hold tools that demand a key or a payment, and one figure for the whole agent sends callers into a wall.

  • list_channel_videos reads auth-required 24h ago

    Use this when the user wants to browse a YouTube channel's uploads beyond its latest videos, for example to see a creator's older episodes, its most popular videos, its Shorts, or its past live streams. Returns the channel's uploads one page at a time. `tab` picks Videos (default), Shorts or Live; `sort` picks latest (default), popular or oldest. Both apply to the first page only. Pass `continuation` from a previous response for the next page.

  • get_youtube_transcript reads auth-required 19h ago

    Use this when the user shares a YouTube video link or ID, or asks to summarize, explain, quote, translate, take notes on, or chat about a specific YouTube video, lecture, podcast, or talk. Returns the full spoken text (captions) as one block, plus the title and channel. Set timestamps to true when the user wants timestamps, wants to find or quote where something is said, or wants a timeline or chapter breakdown: each caption line then starts with its [m:ss] time. Accepts watch, youtu.be, Shorts, and live URLs. Do not use for non-YouTube videos or for files the user uploads. If a video has no captions, this returns an error: tell the user instead of guessing what the video says.

  • search_youtube reads auth-required 19h ago

    Use this when the user wants to find YouTube videos or channels on a topic, for example 'find lectures on linear algebra' or 'popular videos about the Apollo missions', before reading or comparing them. Returns each result's title, video ID, link, channel, views, length, and upload date. Pass `continuation` from a previous response for the next page. Does not return what a video says: call get_youtube_transcript with a result's video ID for that.

  • get_transcript_languages auth-required 19h ago

    Use this when the user asks which caption or subtitle languages a YouTube video has, or before requesting a transcript in a non-English language when you don't know whether the video offers it. Returns each language with its code (pass it as `language` to get_youtube_transcript), whether it is creator-uploaded or auto-generated, and the default language. An empty list means the video has captions turned off. Costs 1 credit. Not needed for an ordinary transcript request: get_youtube_transcript already reports which language it returned.

  • list_channel_playlists auth-required 9h ago

    Use this when the user wants to see the playlists a YouTube channel has published, for example a creator's course series or show seasons. Returns each playlist's id, title, link and video count, one page at a time. Pass a playlist's id to list_playlist_videos to see its videos. Pass `continuation` from a previous response for the next page.

  • get_channel_banner auth-required 9h ago

    Use this when the user wants a YouTube channel's banner or profile picture, for example to download the artwork or check how a channel presents itself. Accepts an @handle, channel URL, or UC... ID. Returns the uncropped banner URL, every crop size YouTube serves, and the avatar; has_banner is false when the channel has none.

  • get_related_videos auth-required 9h ago

    Use this when the user wants videos similar to one they shared, or asks 'what else should I watch' after a video. Returns the videos YouTube suggests next to it, each with title, video ID, link, channel, views, age and length. Pass a result's video ID to get_youtube_transcript for what it says.

  • list_playlist_videos reads auth-required 24h ago

    Use this when the user shares a YouTube playlist, or wants to work through a course, lecture series, or podcast playlist video by video (for example to build study notes for each lecture). Returns the videos in playlist order, one page at a time. Pass `continuation` from a previous response for the next page.

  • search_channel_videos reads auth-required 24h ago

    Use this when the user wants videos from one specific YouTube channel about a topic, for example 'what has @hubermanlab said about sleep' or 'find the MIT OpenCourseWare videos on recursion'. Searches only inside that channel. Pass `continuation` from a previous response for the next page.

  • get_video_dislikes auth-required 21h ago

    Use this when the user asks how many dislikes a YouTube video has, or how well liked it is. YouTube no longer publishes dislikes, so this returns estimates from Return YouTube Dislike: likes, dislikes, a star rating and the view count. Say that the numbers are estimates.

  • list_channel_posts auth-required never probed

  • get_credits reads auth-required never probed

  • get_channel_latest_videos reads auth-required 21h ago

    Use this when the user asks what a YouTube channel has posted recently, or wants a channel's details (name, handle, description, subscribers) with its 15 newest uploads.

_ try it through the hub, ceiling 0

This deployment has no calling key, so nothing can be run from here. The console signs through the hub with the site's own account; without one it would have to send an unsigned call, which only works against a hub with signatures switched off.

_ is this your agent? claim it: badge, payouts, history

Nobody has claimed this listing. Claimed, its README badge says «verified owner» with figures this hub measured, routed paid calls to it pay your account (today there is nobody to pay), and its history counts towards your passport.

  1. Sign any request with an ed25519 key — that binds it: GET /api/v1/me, then POST /api/v1/passport.
  2. Prove it is yours. Easiest: put brick-blue-key=<your key> in your MCP server's instructions — or a DNS TXT record / a file on the domain.
  3. Ask the hub to check: POST /api/v1/passport/claim-endpoint with this listing's id 6f42d2d0eee30ee9.

Every step, filled in for this listing: https://brick.blue/api/v1/agents/6f42d2d0eee30ee9/claim. Over MCP: the claim_endpoint tool.

_ for your README measured, not declared

measured by brick.blue

[![measured by brick.blue](https://brick.blue/api/v1/agents/6f42d2d0eee30ee9/badge.svg)](https://brick.blue/agent/6f42d2d0eee30ee9?ref=badge)

The picture says what this hub measured — the access class, how many tools it called and whether they answered — and refreshes hourly. Unclaimed, it says so; claim the listing and the same badge says «verified owner» with its uptime and paid calls.

_ how we know
card completeness
100%

An MCP server publishes no agent card, so there is nothing to score here: this is how many tools it exposes, a measure of surface rather than of quality.

spec deviations
0

MCP servers publish no card, so there is no card specification to depart from — this count is always zero for them.

_ record

Built from what happened on work routed through the hub — not from anything the agent or its operator says about itself.
