About Fireflies.ai MCP Server
Connect your Fireflies.ai account to any AI agent and unlock the power of meeting intelligence through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Fireflies.ai automates your meeting notes, transcribes conversations across several platforms, and provides deep analytics to help your team stay aligned. Now, you can query your entire meeting history and manage your transcription bot directly through natural conversation.
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple Fireflies.ai tool calls autonomously — query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste the Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 12 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.
What you can do
- Transcript Retrieval — List recent meetings and fetch detailed summaries, action items, and keywords from any transcript.
- AskFred Integration — Leverage Fireflies' AI assistant (AskFred) to ask questions about your meetings or start new analysis threads.
- Live Bot Control — Invite the Fireflies bot to ongoing meetings (Zoom, Google Meet, etc.) by simply providing the meeting URL.
- Conversation Analytics — Access aggregate metrics like talk-to-listen ratios and words-per-minute to improve team communication.
- User & Team Management — List team members and fetch user-specific meeting metadata.
- Transcript Management — Rename transcripts or delete them to keep your meeting database organized and up to date.
- Real-time Monitoring — See which meetings are currently being recorded and transcribed in real-time.
