## What it does

The server lets an agent search for videos and creators, inspect video details, and browse a creator’s profile, uploads, series, and posts. It can retrieve subtitles, find matching phrases with timestamps, read comments and replies, and page through collections visible to the signed-in account. It connects as a local stdio server.

You need Node.js 20 or later. After adding the server to Claude Code, run `npx -y @xzxzzx/bilibili-mcp@latest setup` and then `npx -y @xzxzzx/bilibili-mcp@latest check`. Reconnect the client and call `check_bilibili_credentials` to verify the live session. Enter cookies in the local terminal; the configuration file is not guaranteed to receive OS-level encryption.

For videos without available subtitles, you can install a local faster-whisper model during setup and request ASR transcription. The feature is off by default and needs a ready model. Bilibili AI-generated subtitles may be inaccurate, so they should not be treated as human-verified quotations.
