Overview

AI-generated overview

Apify-hosted remote MCP server that lets an assistant search YouTube by keyword and pull trending videos with views, likes, comments and duration.

What you can do
  • Search YouTube videos by keyword and retrieve results
  • Fetch trending videos with views, likes, comments and duration
  • Return video metadata for use in research or content planning
  • Runs as a hosted Apify endpoint rather than a local package
When to use it
Useful when you want an assistant to gather YouTube search results or trending video data with engagement metrics for research, content ideas or reporting, without building your own YouTube integration.
Requirements
A remote MCP endpoint at mcp.apify.com with OAuth authentication; an Apify API token sent as an Authorization bearer header; your own YouTube Data API key supplied in the tool input; network access and an Apify account for billing.
Before you install
Requires an Apify API token as a bearer credential and your own YouTube Data API key in tool input; runs are billed per video returned plus a small per-run fee to your Apify account, so usage costs money. Queries are sent to Apify and YouTube.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Vidtrawl: YouTube Search Scraper & Trending Videos (Official API) in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Connect the required credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
  3. 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/dev.workers.cybermax-tools.cybermax%2Fyoutube-search-scraper/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.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config. The client completes OAuth sign-in on first connect.

This server asks you to sign in, so SourceWeft could not read its tools without an account and has not indexed them. What a connected account sees can depend on that account and its permissions.

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
