// key findings
✅
No credential exfiltration, no sensitive file access, no obfuscation
Static analysis found nothing flowing your secrets to unexpected places.
✅
Open source with a license and README
Anyone can audit the code, the license is declared, and the publisher documents what it does.
🔐
You'll be asked for 1 credential: YTSM_API_KEY
These are read from process.env at runtime. Make sure you trust where they’ll be sent.
// environment variables
To run this server yourself, you supply these values. They go in your own MCP client configuration and stay on your machine. The secret label means the value is sensitive, not that the server mishandles it.
configMCP_PUBLIC_URLhttps://mcp.youtubetranscript.dev
🔐 secretYTSM_API_KEYRun as a subprocess instead of HTTP. Required: set in env (API key is not passed per-request for stdio).
configYTSM_BASE_URLhttps://www.youtubetranscript.dev
configYTSM_TIMEOUT_MS30000
Deployment configuration, supplied by whoever hosts the server. Users are not asked for these.

// full audit trail
The findings above are the summary. The full trail, every check we ran, each deduction, the network hosts observed and the dependency advisories, goes to verified publishers, along with an alert whenever a new one lands. Verified publishers can also review each finding and dispute it in one click. Publisher corrections have sharpened several of our checks this month, because the maintainer knows the codebase better than any scanner.
