Get any video's transcript directly inside Continue.dev
Continue.dev reads MCP servers from your config file. Add TranscriptX once, reload, and the tools show up in any chat session.
Steps
- Open your Continue config (typically
~/.continue/config.json). - Add this block (or merge with an existing
mcpServers):{ "mcpServers": { "transcriptx": { "url": "https://transcriptx.xyz/mcp/?token=YOUR_TOKEN" } } } - Reload Continue (Command Palette → "Continue: Reload").
Replace YOUR_TOKEN with the personal token from /account/mcp.
Try it
- "Transcribe this YouTube tutorial and turn each step into a code comment: <URL>"
- "Pull the last 5 videos from this channel and summarize them."
If something breaks
- JSON parse error. Trailing commas and unquoted keys break the config. Validate it first.
- Tools don't appear after reload. Quit and reopen your IDE. Some Continue versions cache MCP discovery.
- 401. Token is wrong, expired, or revoked. Generate a new one at /account/mcp.
