Fathom MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for accessing Fathom.video meeting recordings, transcripts, summaries, teams, and team members.

This implementation provides streamlined access to Fathom meeting data while minimizing API consumption. It is optimized for efficiency and simplicity, using the Toon output format for less token usage and better LLM processing.
