MCP FAQ
Common questions about MCP integration
What is the Model Context Protocol (MCP)?
MCP is an open protocol that enables AI applications to securely access external data sources and tools. It allows your AI assistant to use Taffy's YouTube analysis capabilities directly in conversations.
Which AI clients support MCP?
Taffy's MCP server works with Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, ChatGPT Desktop, and any other MCP-compatible client. Setup instructions are provided for each supported platform.
Do I need technical knowledge to set up MCP?
Basic configuration is required, but our setup guide includes step-by-step instructions for each client. Most users can complete setup in under 10 minutes with copy-paste configuration.
How does credit usage work with MCP?
MCP tools use the same credit system as our API: 1 credit for transcripts, 2 for video analysis, 3 for comments, and 5 for comment insights. Your AI assistant automatically manages credit usage when calling tools.
Can I use MCP offline or with private videos?
MCP requires an internet connection to access Taffy's servers. We currently support public YouTube content only. For private video analysis or enterprise needs, contact our team for custom solutions.
Is my API key secure with MCP?
Yes. Your API key is stored locally in your MCP configuration and only transmitted securely to Taffy's servers. We never store or log your API key on our servers beyond authentication.
