How to Set Up and Use TranscriptionTools
TranscriptionTools MCP Server delivers intelligent transcript processing for Claude and other MCP-compatible AI clients, exposing tools that convert raw timestamped speech-to-text output into clean, readable documents. It can detect and repair contextual transcription errors with high confidence, reformat transcripts into naturally flowing text with proper paragraph breaks, and generate structured summaries using the ACE cognitive framework. Podcast editors, meeting note-takers, and content teams use it to eliminate the manual work of cleaning up automatic captions and voice recordings.

- "Generate an ACE-framework summary of this interview transcript: [paste transcript]"
- "Show me the repair log from the most recent repair operation"Troubleshooting TranscriptionTools
npx transcriptiontools-mcp-server command not found
This package is not published to npm under that name. Use the Smithery CLI install command or clone and build the repository manually. The correct Smithery package identifier is @MushroomFleet/transcriptiontools-mcp.
format_transcript produces no paragraph breaks
The tool uses a default 8-second gap to detect paragraph boundaries and 4 seconds for line breaks. If your transcript timestamps are in a different format, verify they match the expected format. Longer recordings may need to be split into sections.
Build fails with TypeScript errors after cloning
Run 'npm install' to ensure all devDependencies are present before running 'npm run build'. Make sure your Node.js version is 18 or later.
