About Fast Video Cataloger
Fast Video Cataloger is an MCP server published by videocataloger.com. Search, view and tag your local video library from Claude: transcripts, scenes, visual search.
It runs on your own machine: your AI client starts it from the MCP bundle package https://github.com/frelo/fvc-mcp/releases/download/v10.4.0/fvc-mcp-10.4.0.mcpb, with no version pinned.
It asks for one secret: FVC_API_KEY. Give it a key with the least access that still works.
Version 10.4.0 was published on 8 October 2026, and the source code is public, so you can read it before installing.
Written from the registry entry. 8 automated checks on the registry entry and the package code: 5 pass, 1 warn, 0 fail, 2 info. How we check.
