TubExperto Link

Connect Cursor to TubExperto

Cursor stops making up what the channels you follow said: it answers with what they actually explained, and shows you the video and the timestamp.

MCP connector URL

https://tubexperto.com/api/mcp/stream

You need a TubExperto account. The free one is enough: no card required.

In Cursor the connection lives in a JSON file on your machine, not in a cloud connector: your TubExperto token goes inside that file.

The free plan already includes the MCP connector, with 1 active session and 7 questions per week. You can try the whole thing without paying.

Three steps and you are done

1
Open Cursor and go to File → Preferences → Cursor Settings. Search for "MCP" in the search bar.
2
Click "Add new global MCP server". The file ~/.cursor/mcp.json will open.
3
Paste the configuration below with your token, save and restart Cursor. If the file already existed, add the "tubexperto" key inside "mcpServers" without deleting the rest.

~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tubexperto": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://tubexperto.com/api/mcp/stream",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer mcpl_..."
      }
    }
  }
}

Try it with these prompts

They work on the demo channels, which are free and already indexed. Copy one and paste it into your conversation.

Ask midudev and CodelyTV what they think about unit tests versus integration tests and tell me where they disagree.

What does CodelyTV recommend about hexagonal architecture on a small project? Quote the videos.

Summarise what Dot CSV says about AI agents and which limits it sees in them.

According to midudev, what should I learn first if I am starting with React today?

Search my channels for anyone talking about TypeScript on the backend and what the consensus is.

What it takes, no small print

On the TubExperto side

A free account. The MCP connector is included in every plan, the free one included.

On the client side

Cursor is configured with a file on your computer, so you need access to your machine and a restart of the editor. The same block works for VS Code by changing the path to .vscode/mcp.json.

What is MCP?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the standard that lets an AI assistant query an external source. TubExperto Link is our MCP server: it gives your AI read access to the YouTube channels you indexed, quoting the video and the timestamp.
