Timestamped transcripts, chapters and clip suggestions from YouTube, Twitch, Kick or TikTok links.
Overview
Hosted MCP server that turns a public video link into a timestamped transcript, topic chapters and short-form clip suggestions.
- What you can do
- Transcribe a public video link into a full timestamped transcript, with plain text, SRT or JSON segment formats.
- Split a video into topic chapters with start, end, title and a one-line summary.
- Suggest the most shareable moments for short clips, with start, end, hook-style title and reason, optionally steered by an editorial instruction.
- Re-poll the same URL while a job is still processing; results are cached for 24 hours.
- When to use it
- Useful when an assistant needs to read, quote or summarize the content of a YouTube, Twitch, Kick or TikTok video, or to find clip-worthy moments without watching it. It suits research, content repurposing and social media workflows where a hosted transcription service is acceptable.
- Requirements
- A remote Streamable HTTP endpoint; nothing to install or run locally. An optional license key is sent as an Authorization bearer token (or X-License-Key header); without one, each IP can process 3 videos per day of up to 15 minutes. A local stdio bridge via npx exists for clients that cannot call a URL, using the CLIPCLIPER_LICENSE_KEY environment variable.
Installation
In SourceWeft
- Open CLIPCLIPER in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
- Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.
Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.
Use with an agent
Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.
Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/com.clipcliper%2Fclipcliper/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.Other MCP clients
Add this to your client's mcpServers config.

CLIPCLIPER MCP server
Give your agent a public video link and get back a timestamped transcript, chapters and clip suggestions. Works with YouTube (videos, shorts, live replays), Twitch VODs, Kick VODs and TikTok, including the platforms that block datacenter IPs.
The server is hosted: nothing to download or run on GPUs. The video is fetched, transcribed with Whisper large-v3 and deleted; only the transcript stays, for 24 hours.
Tools
All three take a url. Processing is asynchronous: a call waits up to wait_seconds
(default 90) and, if the video is still downloading or transcribing, returns
status: "processing". Call the same tool again with the same url; the job keeps running on
the server and nothing is charged twice. Results are cached for 24 hours per url.
Connect
Listed on Smithery (one-click setup for Claude, Cursor and other clients) and submitted to the Glama registry.
Remote (recommended), Streamable HTTP:
Claude Code:
Claude Desktop, Cursor and other clients that take a JSON config (remote):
Local bridge (stdio) for clients that cannot call a URL directly:
The bridge is this repository: a ~100-line process that speaks MCP over stdio and forwards
every call to the hosted endpoint with your key. Until the npm package is published you can run
it straight from GitHub: npx -y github:Inmoprice/clipcliper-mcp.
Keys and pricing
- Without a key: each IP can process 3 videos per day of up to 15 minutes. Good for trying it.
- With a key: minute packs at clipcliper.com/mcp, one-time, minutes never expire:
Every video costs one pack minute per started minute of video; chapters and clip suggestions on
a transcribed video are free. The license key is emailed to you right after checkout. Send it
as Authorization: Bearer <key> (or X-License-Key); it never goes in tool arguments or URLs.
Hour packs of the CLIPCLIPER desktop app also work here (one pack hour per started hour).
REST
Prefer plain HTTP? The same pipeline is available at
POST https://clipcliper.com/api/link/transcribe, /api/link/chapters and /api/link/suggest
with a JSON body {"url": "..."} and the same header. 202 while processing, 200 when done.
Privacy
- The video file is deleted as soon as the transcript exists; the transcript expires after 24 h.
- No accounts, no cookies. Usage is counted per key (hours) or per IP hash (free tier).
- Questions: [email protected]
