Installation
npx @kimtaeyoon83/mcp-server-youtube-transcriptSecurity Notes
The server's source code does not contain direct usage of 'eval' or obvious obfuscation techniques. It makes legitimate HTTPS requests to www.youtube.com to fetch video data and transcripts. Input parameters such as 'url' and 'lang' are validated, and network requests include timeouts (30 seconds). No hardcoded sensitive credentials or API keys were observed that are required for the server's operation. The 'OPENAI_API_KEY' mentioned in evals is for testing purposes, not for the server itself.
