What is the MeGPT MCP server?

MeGPT MCP server exists for a simple reason — assistants are far more useful when they can act on MeGPT directly instead of describing what you should do. Code to process many kinds of content by an author into an MCP server.

What you get

I have 20 years of public content I've produced and presented over my career, and I'd like to have an LLM that is trained to answer questions and generate summaries of my opinions, in my "voice", At this point, I've found a few companies that are building persona's and tried out soopra.ai. To encourage development and competition in this space I have organized my public content and references to sources in this repo.

OKF documents are Markdown files with YAML frontmatter. Every document has: - type: content type (Podcast Interview, YouTube Talk, Article, Book, Topic) - title, description: human-readable metadata - resource: the original source URL (ensures every answer cites its source) - tags: searchable topics - timestamp: publication date

Setting it up

Setup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client.

Configuration and credentials

You will need 3 environment variables: ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, VIDEO_ID, PLAYLIST_ID. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.

Choosing this one

This sits in the developer tooling group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. It is maintained by adrianco; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

This entry was verified against MeGPT's own documentation before publication; SyncDev keeps the directory reviewed rather than auto-generated.

Before you rely on it

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients — if no tools show up, check the environment block first.
  • MCP clients confirm each tool call by default. Leave that on until you have watched what the megpt mcp server does with a few real requests.
