Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the PeerTube (YouTube Alternative) MCP Server?
Connect your PeerTube instance to any AI agent to explore the decentralized video ecosystem. This server allows you to interact with the Fediverse's leading video platform through natural language.
What you can do
- Video Discovery — Access public video feeds and comment streams in multiple formats (RSS, Atom, JSON, XML).
- Content Retrieval — Fetch public and private web videos, HLS playlists, and generate direct download links for offline viewing.
- User Management — Register new accounts on instances and manage OAuth 2.0 authentication tokens directly.
- System Monitoring — Track the status of background processing jobs for video transcoding and federation.
- OAuth Integration — Retrieve local client credentials to facilitate secure third-party application connections.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your PeerTube Instance URL (e.g.,
https://peertube.example.com) - (Optional) Provide your Personal Access Token for private content and administrative tasks
- Start querying videos and managing your instance from your favorite MCP client
Who is this for?
- Content Creators — Monitor video processing jobs and manage feeds across the Fediverse.
- Developers — Test API integrations and retrieve OAuth credentials without manual terminal commands.
- Privacy Enthusiasts — Access decentralized video content through a secure, AI-driven interface.

Frequently asked questions
How can I generate a direct download link for a PeerTube video?
You can use the generate_video_download tool by providing the video's ID or UUID. The agent will return a muxed mp4 container link for downloading.
Can I register a new user account on my instance using the AI?
Yes, if the instance allows public registration, you can use the register_user tool with a username, password, and email address.
How do I check if my video transcoding jobs are finished?
Use the get_completed_jobs tool. It retrieves a list of all finished background jobs, allowing you to verify successful processing.
How does AutoGen connect to MCP servers?
Create an MCP tool adapter and assign it to one or more agents in the group chat. AutoGen agents can then call PeerTube (YouTube Alternative) tools during their conversation turns.
Can different agents have different MCP tool access?
Yes. AutoGen's role-based architecture lets you assign specific MCP tools to specific agents, so a querying agent has different capabilities than a reviewing agent.
Does AutoGen support human approval for tool calls?
Yes. Configure human-in-the-loop mode so agents pause and request approval before executing sensitive MCP tool calls.
