Cursor Agent + YouTube

What is Cursor Agent?

Cursor IDE's agent mode with MCP server support. Drop Scavio's MCP endpoint into .cursor/mcp.json and every agent gets real-time Google, Amazon, YouTube, Walmart, and Reddit search.

Searching YouTube with Cursor Agent

This integration lets your Cursor Agent agent search YouTube in real time via the Scavio API. The agent gets back structured JSON with video results, channel results, playlist results, transcripts -- ready for reasoning and decision-making.

Setup

# Add Scavio MCP server to .cursor/mcp.json

Code Example

Here is a complete Cursor Agent agent that searches YouTube using Scavio:

# Generic HTTP integration for Cursor Agent
# Point your framework's HTTP request tool at:
#
#   POST https://api.scavio.dev/api/v1/youtube/search
#   Authorization: Bearer sk_live_your_key
#   Content-Type: application/json
#   {"search":"your search query"}
#
# Rows come back under data.results.
#
# YouTube takes search (not query) in the request body.
