rippr
Три способа использования rippr
🌐 Веб-сайт — rippr.me
Вставьте URL-адрес YouTube и получите транскрипт. Чистый текст, без регистрации.
🧩 Расширение для Chrome — Chrome Web Store
Извлечение транскрипта в один клик прямо на любой странице YouTube. Несколько форматов вывода (RAG, JSON, Markdown).
🤖 MCP-сервер — npm
Подключите rippr к Claude, Cursor или любому MCP-совместимому клиенту. Сохраняет каждый транскрипт в ~/rippr/transcripts/ и возвращает путь к файлу для модели.
Только для настольных клиентов. rippr работает как локальный процесс stdio, поэтому он совместим с Claude Desktop, Claude Code CLI и Cursor. Он не работает с облачными клиентами (claude.ai в браузере, мобильное приложение Claude или Claude Code в телефоне/браузере), которые не могут запускать локальные процессы.
npx rippr-mcpДобавьте в Claude Desktop (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"rippr": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "rippr-mcp"]
}
}
}Затем спросите: "Rip this YouTube video: [url]". Полный список инструментов см. в mcp/README.md.

Форматы вывода
RAG (.txt) — единый непрерывный блок текста, оптимизированный для разбивки на части (chunking) и эмбеддингов
Structured (.json) — сегменты с временными метками и метаданными
Readable (.md) — markdown с заголовками и форматированием
Как это работает
Многостратегическое извлечение для максимальной надежности:
Innertube API — внутренний API плеера YouTube (клиент Android)
HTML-скрейпинг — парсинг
ytInitialPlayerResponseиз исходного кода страницыПанель транскриптов — открытие встроенной панели транскриптов YouTube в качестве последнего средства
XML субтитров парсится в нескольких форматах (srv3, timedtext, JSON3). Повторные попытки с экспоненциальной задержкой при временных сбоях.

Отказ от ответственности
Rippr — это неофициальный инструмент, созданный сообществом. Он не связан с YouTube или Google LLC, не одобрен и не спонсируется ими. YouTube является товарным знаком Google LLC.
Rippr получает доступ к общедоступным данным транскриптов YouTube через конечные точки, которые используют собственные приложения YouTube. Использование осуществляется в соответствии с Условиями использования YouTube и на ваш страх и риск. Автор не несет ответственности за блокировки, ограничения скорости, действия с учетными записями или любые другие последствия использования.
Если YouTube изменит свои внутренние API таким образом, что это нарушит работу извлечения, инструмент может перестать работать без предупреждения. Для долгосрочного использования в продакшене рассмотрите возможность использования официального YouTube Data API v3 с API-ключом (в настоящее время не поддерживается этим пакетом).
Лицензия
Available Tools
1 toolrip_transcriptA
Extract the full transcript from a YouTube video. By default, saves the transcript as a Markdown file to disk and returns a resource_link + metadata (title, channel, language, duration, word count, saved path, preview). The full transcript text is NOT returned by default — this keeps context lean and gives the user a persistent file they can reuse. After calling, always tell the user where the file was saved. If you need the transcript text later (summarize, search, extract quotes), read the returned resource rather than re-ripping. Pass return_text: true only for short clips or when the user explicitly asks for the transcript inline. Pass format: 'segments' to save timestamped JSON instead of Markdown.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| url | Yes | YouTube video URL. Supports any YouTube URL format (watch, youtu.be, embed, shorts, or bare 11-char ID). | |
| format | No | Saved file format. 'text' writes a Markdown file with YAML frontmatter and a continuous transcript block (best for RAG/LLM). 'segments' writes a JSON file with timestamped segments (best for chapter markers, precise citations). Default: text. | |
| save_path | No | Optional override for where to save the transcript. Can be an absolute path, a ~/-relative path, a directory (file is named automatically), or a full file path. When you save outside the default directory, the returned resource_link still points to the saved file so it can be read later. Default: ~/rippr/transcripts/<slug>_<videoId>.<ext> | |
| return_text | No | If true, include the full transcript text in the tool response alongside the resource_link. Default: false. Use true only for short clips or when the user explicitly wants the transcript inline. |
TDQS
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Despite no annotations, the description fully discloses default behavior (saves file, does not return text), rationale (keep context lean, persistent file), and side effects (saves to disk). Could explicitly mention idempotency or rate limits, but overall strong.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Seven sentences, all contributing meaningful information. Front-loaded with purpose and key behavioral notes. No redundant or unnecessary content.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Covers all critical aspects: default behavior, parameter usage, post-call action (tell user where saved). No output schema, but description is sufficient for agent to correctly invoke and follow up. Minor missing detail on resource_link format, but not essential.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, but description adds significant value: explains default behavior for format and return_text, supported URL formats, and save_path resolution details. Provides usage recommendations that go beyond schema descriptions.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description states 'Extract the full transcript from a YouTube video' with a specific verb and resource, clearly defining the tool's function. No sibling tools exist, so differentiation is not an issue.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Provides explicit guidance: default saves file and returns metadata, advises against re-ripping by reading resource, specifies when to use return_text (short clips or explicit request) and format alternatives. Covers context and exclusions thoroughly.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
TDQS
With only one tool, there is no possibility of confusion. The single tool 'rip_transcript' has a clear and distinct purpose.
The single tool name 'rip_transcript' follows a consistent verb_noun pattern. No naming conflicts exist.
The server has only one tool, which is minimal but acceptable given its focused purpose of ripping YouTube transcripts. While slightly under-scoped, it provides a complete interface for its intended function.
The tool covers the core task of transcript extraction with options for format and inline text. However, it lacks complementary tools such as listing videos or batch processing, leaving minor gaps.
