[!IMPORTANT] This local package is retired (12 October 2026). Use the hosted Scriptivox MCP server instead: add https://platform.scriptivox.com/mcp to your AI app and sign in. It has every tool (this package lacks 23 of them), nothing to install, and for files on your computer its upload_link tool returns a one-time upload command. Setup: https://platform.scriptivox.com/docs/mcp. Clients that only run local servers can bridge with npx mcp-remote https://platform.scriptivox.com/mcp. Existing installs keep working with an API key, but get no new tools.

@scriptivox/mcp-server

MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for Scriptivox — AI-powered audio and video transcription.

Turn any AI assistant into a transcription powerhouse. Transcribe audio and video from URLs or local files with 99% accuracy, speaker diarization, 119 languages, and word-level timestamps. Plus full CRUD on transcriptions (cancel, delete, list) and caption export in SRT / WebVTT / plain text.

Hosted server — no install, no key to copy

Scriptivox also runs this server for you at https://platform.scriptivox.com/mcp. Add the URL and sign in in your browser; the connection shows up as a key on platform.scriptivox.com/keys, where you can disconnect it.

claude mcp add --transport http scriptivox https://platform.scriptivox.com/mcp

In Claude (web/desktop) use Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector; in Codex, codex mcp add scriptivox --url https://platform.scriptivox.com/mcp. Use the local package below when you need transcribe_upload on local files.

Quick Start

Claude Desktop

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "scriptivox": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@scriptivox/mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "SCRIPTIVOX_API_KEY": "sk_live_YOUR_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

claude mcp add scriptivox -- npx -y @scriptivox/mcp-server

Then set the environment variable SCRIPTIVOX_API_KEY=sk_live_YOUR_KEY.

Other MCP Clients

Any MCP-compatible client can use this server via stdio transport:

SCRIPTIVOX_API_KEY=sk_live_YOUR_KEY npx -y @scriptivox/mcp-server

Transcription tools (API key required)

Tool	Description

`transcribe_upload`	Transcribe a LOCAL file. Drives the 3-step upload flow internally. Up to 5 GB.
`transcribe_status`	Check the status of a transcription by ID. Returns the full transcript when completed.

`check_balance`	View your API credit balance and estimated hours available.

Tip: always pass `language` when you know it

Auto-detection works in most cases but has a small failure rate on short clips, code-switched audio, or files starting with music. Passing the ISO code is both faster and more accurate.
