MCP server using Gemini Vision API to interact with YouTube videos.
Most developer tooling work still happens through a UI a human drives. Youtube Vision MCP MCP server moves it into the conversation instead. MCP server using Gemini Vision API to interact with YouTube videos.
MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that utilizes the Google Gemini Vision API to interact with YouTube videos. It allows users to get descriptions, summaries, answers to questions, and extract key moments from YouTube videos.
The server ships on npm as @smithery/cli, so your MCP client can launch it on demand — there is no separate build step. Add the server block to your client's configuration, restart it, and the tools register themselves.
Configuration is passed through the environment: GEMINI_API_KEY, GEMINI_MODEL_NAME, YOUR_GEMINI_API_KEY. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.
Before using this server, ensure you have the following: * Node.js: Version 18 or higher recommended. You can download it from nodejs.org. * Google Gemini API Key: Obtain your API key from Google AI Studio or Google Cloud Console.
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 minbang930; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.
