Bibigpt Skill MCP Server

bibigpt-skill — Video Summarizer Agent Skill

Claude Code · Codex · ChatGPT · OpenClaw · Cursor. Summarize YouTube, Bilibili, podcasts, and local files via the bibi CLI or hosted MCP.

AI Agent skills for BibiGPT. Multiple skills, one CLI (bibi), one account.

npx skills add JimmyLv/bibigpt-skill still installs bibi (existing onboarding). Add a sibling with --skill:

npx skills add JimmyLv/bibigpt-skill --skill bibi-library
npx skills add JimmyLv/bibigpt-skill --skill bibi-feed
npx skills add JimmyLv/bibigpt-skill --skill bibi-vision

Agent landing: bibigpt.co/mcp. Hand-held per-host install pages: bibigpt.co/agent (ChatGPT, Claude Code, OpenClaw, WorkBuddy, Doubao Work, QwenWork, DeepSeek Harness).

Four ways to use:

1. BibiGPT Desktop + CLI Skill — install bibi CLI, works with Claude Code / OpenClaw / Codex / WorkBuddy / QwenWork / Doubao Work / DeepSeek Harness
2. Remote MCP Server — zero install, works with any MCP client (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, etc.)
3. OpenAPI — direct HTTP calls for containers, CI, or custom integrations
4. Codex Plugin — this repo doubles as a Codex plugin (.codex-plugin/ manifest + MCP + skills)

Install as a Codex plugin

From the terminal:

codex plugin marketplace add JimmyLv/bibigpt-skill
codex plugin add bibi@bibigpt

Or inside a Codex session: /plugin marketplace add JimmyLv/bibigpt-skill, then install bibi from the marketplace tab in /plugins. Also works in the Codex IDE extension (Settings → Plugins) and the ChatGPT desktop app (Work / Codex). Authentication happens on first use via OAuth — no API keys to manage.

Skill Structure

skills/
├── bibi/                 # Watch: summarize / subtitle / chapter
├── bibi-library/         # Saved videos, notes, collections
├── bibi-feed/            # Channel subscribe + latest feed
└── bibi-vision/          # Frames, OCR, mind map

Each directory has SKILL.md (intent + triggers), references/ (auth, CLI), and workflows/ where a multi-step path exists. All four skills call the same bibi binary — there is no second npm package named video-cli.

Workflows

bibi (watch-video) workflows:

Sibling skills own the rest: bibi-library (saved library / notes / collections), bibi-feed (channels / latest), bibi-vision (frames / mind map).

Quick Start

1. Install Desktop App

curl -fsSL https://bibigpt.co/install.sh | bash

Works on macOS (auto-uses Homebrew), Linux (downloads AppImage), and detects Windows (prompts to use winget).

Or install manually per platform:

• macOS: brew install --cask jimmylv/bibigpt/bibigpt (Homebrew tap)
• Windows: winget install BibiGPT --source winget or download from bibigpt.co/download/desktop
• Linux: Download .deb / .AppImage from bibigpt.co/download/desktop

Then log in: bibi auth login (opens browser for OAuth, saves token automatically).

2. Install Skill

Claude Code

npx skills add JimmyLv/bibigpt-skill

OpenClaw

npx skills add JimmyLv/bibigpt-skill --agents OpenClaw --yes

DeepSeek Harness

dsh plugin --profile web add "github:JimmyLv/bibigpt-skill#path:/dsh-plugin"

Restart the profile and /bibi shows up under Skills. Keep the quotes — # starts a shell comment. Source and the disk-copy alternative live in dsh-plugin/. Copying skills/bibi into ~/.agents/skills/bibi also works (shared with Claude Code).

WorkBuddy (Tencent)

Download: workbuddy.cn. Skills live in ~/.workbuddy/skills/<name>/SKILL.md.

npx skills add JimmyLv/bibigpt-skill -g -y

WorkBuddy custom skills need agent_created: true in the SKILL.md frontmatter (this repo includes it). Then /reload-skills or restart the app.

Fallback: copy skills/bibi to ~/.workbuddy/skills/bibi.

Step-by-step: https://bibigpt.co/agent/workbuddy

豆包工作 / Doubao Work

Download desktop: doubao.com/download/desktop. Doubao Work does not publish a filesystem skill directory — do not invent ~/.doubao/skills.

In the desktop sidebar open 技能 · 连接器 · 伙伴, create a skill named bibi, and paste skills/bibi/SKILL.md.

Step-by-step: https://bibigpt.co/agent/doubao

千问工作 / QwenWork

App: qwenwork.cn. Skill dir: ~/.qwenworkcn/skills/. Paste this into QwenWork:

Please download https://github.com/JimmyLv/bibigpt-skill and copy skills/bibi to ~/.qwenworkcn/skills/bibi

QwenWork clones and loads the skill from chat. Docs: https://help.aliyun.com/zh/qwenwork/skills

Step-by-step: https://bibigpt.co/agent/qwenwork

3. Usage

Ask your agent to summarize any video, audio URL, or local file:

> Summarize this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxxxx
> Summarize this local file: /path/to/meeting-recording.mp4

The agent will automatically detect the best mode and route to the right workflow.

Commands

Updating

BibiGPT ships three independently updateable layers. Pick the one that matches what you want refreshed.

Update the skill

npx skills update JimmyLv/bibigpt-skill

The skill does not auto-update — Agents read whatever was last fetched. Re-run when you want new BibiGPT capabilities, fixed workflows, or new MCP tools surfaced. For a clean reinstall:

npx skills remove JimmyLv/bibigpt-skill && npx skills add JimmyLv/bibigpt-skill

The GitHub Releases page tracks what each version changed.

Update the bibi CLI

bibi check-update    # peek at the latest published version
bibi upgrade         # download and install (uses brew on macOS, installer on Windows)

Or via package manager: brew upgrade --cask bibigpt / winget upgrade BibiGPT --source winget / fresh download from bibigpt.co/download/desktop.

Manifest is hot-cached, not embedded. Even without bibi upgrade, the CLI dispatcher fetches https://bibigpt.co/api/cli-manifest.json on first call (24h TTL) — newly-released agent procedures show up the next day. bibi upgrade only matters when the dispatcher itself or the embedded SKILL.md changes.

Update the MCP server

Nothing to do — the remote MCP endpoint always serves the latest meta.mcp.enabled tool list. Restart your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, etc.) if you don't see a newly-released tool — that refreshes its tools/list cache.

Note: The desktop app build is triggered via the build-tauri-desktop-app GitHub Actions workflow. After a successful build, artifacts are uploaded to OSS and the latest.json manifest is updated automatically — the client checks this manifest for update availability.

---

Remote MCP Server (No Install Required)

BibiGPT also provides a remote MCP server at https://bibigpt.co/api/mcp — works with any MCP-compatible client. Streamable HTTP transport with OAuth 2.1 authentication.

Available Tools

Claude Code

Add to .mcp.json in your project root:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bibigpt": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://bibigpt.co/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Or via CLI:

claude mcp add --transport http bibigpt https://bibigpt.co/api/mcp

OpenAI Codex

Edit ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in project root):

[mcp_servers.bibigpt]
url = "https://bibigpt.co/api/mcp"

With API key authentication:

[mcp_servers.bibigpt]
url = "https://bibigpt.co/api/mcp"
bearer_token_env_var = "BIBIGPT_API_KEY"

Claude Desktop

Option A — UI (recommended): Settings → Connectors → Add Connector → paste https://bibigpt.co/api/mcp

Option B — Config file (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS, %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json on Windows):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bibigpt": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://bibigpt.co/api/mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Direct API Key (Skip OAuth)

If you have a BibiGPT API key, skip OAuth and use Bearer token directly:

# List available tools (no auth needed for discovery)
curl -X POST https://bibigpt.co/api/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list"}'

# Summarize a video (requires auth)
curl -X POST https://bibigpt.co/api/mcp \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":2,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"summarize_video","arguments":{"url":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxxxx"}}}'
