About
Enables semantic search over per-video summaries from curated AI/coding YouTube channels using the AI YouTube Digest API.
README
Semantic search over the entire AI & coding YouTube landscape — right inside your LLM.
aidevtube-mcp is the official MCP server for the AI YouTube Digest —
a continuously growing, topic-tagged, multilingual corpus of per-video summaries from ~40
hand-curated AI & coding YouTube channels (Nate Herk, Tech With Tim, Theo, NeuralNine, WorldofAI,
and many more), updated every week.
Stop scrubbing through hours of video. Ask your agent "what did the AI-dev world say about Claude Code agents this month?" and get straight, sourced answers — searched by meaning, not keywords, across the whole back-catalogue.
Why it's useful
- 🔎 Semantic search (hybrid vector + Cohere rerank) — finds videos by what they're about, not just exact words.
- 🗓️ Longitudinal — a week-by-week map of the AI/coding discourse, not just today's hype. Pro keys search the full archive.
- 🏷️ Topic & channel filters — narrow to "Claude Code & Anthropic-Tooling", a specific creator, etc.
- 🌍 Multilingual — summaries in English, German and French.
- 🔌 Drop-in — works in Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any MCP client. There's also a plain REST API (
api.aidevtube.com).
Quick start
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop / Claude Code / Cursor):

"aidevtube": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["aidevtube-mcp"],
"env": { "AIDEVTUBE_API_KEY": "adt_your_key_here" }
}
}
}
Or run it directly:
AIDEVTUBE_API_KEY=adt_… uvx aidevtube-mcp
