aidevtube-mcp
Semantic search over the entire AI & coding YouTube landscape — right inside your LLM.
aidevtube-mcp is the official MCP server for the AI YouTube Digest — a continuously growing, topic-tagged, multilingual corpus of per-video summaries from ~40 hand-curated AI & coding YouTube channels (Nate Herk, Tech With Tim, Theo, NeuralNine, WorldofAI, and many more), updated every week.
Stop scrubbing through hours of video. Ask your agent "what did the AI-dev world say about Claude Code agents this month?" and get straight, sourced answers — searched by meaning, not keywords, across the whole back-catalogue.
Why it's useful
- 🔎 Semantic search (hybrid vector + Cohere rerank) — finds videos by what they're about, not just exact words.
- 🗓️ Longitudinal — a week-by-week map of the AI/coding discourse, not just today's hype. Pro keys search the full archive.
- 🏷️ Topic & channel filters — narrow to "Claude Code & Anthropic-Tooling", a specific creator, etc.
- 🌍 Multilingual — summaries in English, German and French.
- 🔌 Drop-in — works in Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any MCP client. There's also a plain REST API (
api.aidevtube.com).
