YouTube Data

YouTube Data is a production-grade MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that exposes a high-efficiency interface to the YouTube Data API v3 for use by AI assistants and LLM-based tools. It offers token-optimized, structured YouTube data—such as video details, transcript extraction, comment retrieval, search, and channel analytics—specifically formatted to minimize LLM context window usage while protecting API quota limits via optional caching. It is especially suited for developers and AI builders who want to give agentic workflows (such as Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf) reliable YouTube data access, search, and video transcript functionality in a way designed for AI reasoning, automation, and downstream analysis.
