## Tools

3 declared. Statically extracted from the shipped source — a floor on the surface, not a census.
- `get_youtube_transcript` — Retrieve captions or generate a transcript for a public YouTube video. Each submission consumes a transcript unit, including cache hits. Can create a generation
- `get_transcript_status` — Check the same accepted job without consuming another transcript unit. Content means success; stop on failed, cancelled or completed without content (stored res
- `list_available_languages` — Return languages observed by a native transcript request. Consumes one transcript unit and can populate the cache; it is not a free metadata lookup. Never start

## Install

**Verdict: install** — No blocking findings and no open coverage gaps — safe to install as configured.
**Config** (claude-code):
```json
"{\n  \"mcpServers\": {\n    \"capslane\": {\n      \"command\": \"npx\",\n      \"args\": [\n        \"-y\",\n        \"@webba_tech/capslane-mcp\"\n      ],\n      \"env\": {\n        \"CAPSLANE_API_KEY\": \"<YOUR_CAPSLANE_API_KEY>\"\n      }\n    }\n  }\n}"
```
**Credentials it will ask for** (names only — Forge never holds a value):
- `CAPSLANE_API_KEY` — Capslane API Key (required)
Placeholders only. Forge never holds, brokers, or transmits a credential value — replace each <YOUR_NAME> in your own config file. Do not send a value back to Forge; no Forge endpoint accepts one.
- This entry needs 1 credential (1 required). The generated config carries placeholders, so it will fail in the editor rather than at runtime if they are left unset.

## Blast radius

Moderate blast radius — runs locally and hosted; holds an api key.
- Floor 27, ceiling 27 (tier: moderate)
- This is impact, not likelihood. A high radius is not a defect: a filesystem server is supposed to write files. It is never part of the trust score.
