That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
Meeting Chief Lite
Minimal meeting transcript sync and search MCP. Downloads meetings from Otter.ai, stores them in SQLite, and provides semantic search via MCP tools.
Features
Otter.ai Sync: Download meeting transcripts automatically
Semantic Search: Find relevant transcript chunks using embeddings
Keyword Search: Fallback for exact text matching
MCP Tools: 3 focused tools for Claude/Cursor integration
