BulkTranscripts YouTube MCP server

BulkTranscripts YouTube is the official remote MCP server from bulktranscripts.co. It answers at https://bulktranscripts.co/mcp over streamable HTTP and asks you to sign in with your bulktranscripts.co account before it lists its tools, so your client opens a login the first time it connects. Our probes reached it 10 of 10 times since 4 September 2026; the last check, on 17 October 2026, got the sign-in challenge, so it is up.
