Claude Desktop Influship get_youtube_channel_transcripts

How to: Claude Desktop Influship get_youtube_channel_transcripts

client:Claude Desktop transport:streamable-http tool:get_youtube_channel_transcripts

Add Influship to Claude Desktop

  1. 01

    Open ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "influship-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://mcp.influship.com/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Claude Desktop.

  2. 03

    Ask for something get_youtube_channel_transcripts does. Claude Desktop lists the server's tools on connect and calls get_youtube_channel_transcripts itself — you do not invoke it by name.

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that Influship's identifier in your config matches the one above exactly.

Claude Desktop has no remote transport in its config file, so this bridges through mcp-remote. Restart the app after saving. Claude Desktop docs

Set these first

Influship will not start until these are set, so get_youtube_channel_transcripts never becomes available.

  • INFLUSHIP_MCP_URL

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 24 September 2026. It is what the server actually exposes, not what its listing claims.

Mutating and Read-only are read off each tool's name, not its schema — a hint, not a guarantee. The registry stores tool names only; connect the server for its live schemas.
