MCP server by Fireflies.ai

Search and analyze meeting transcripts, summaries, action items and soundbites from your Fireflies.ai account.

OAuth sign-in (You sign in with the vendor the first time you connect)Streamable HTTP

Connect to Fireflies

Fireflies needs sign-in. Connect with its own URL:

https://api.fireflies.ai/mcp

Your client opens Fireflies.ai’s sign-in the first time you use it. The token stays between your client and Fireflies.ai.

About

Connects an assistant to your Fireflies.ai account so it can search and retrieve meeting transcripts, summaries, soundbites, channels and user data. The documentation lists tools for searching by keyword, date, organizer, participant and channel, plus actions such as sharing meetings and creating soundbites.

Runs as a hosted streamable HTTP endpoint at api.fireflies.ai/mcp. Users sign in with OAuth, and tools operate within the authenticated Fireflies account. Some tools are read-only and others take actions. The fireflies_search and fireflies_fetch tools are experimental and may not be available to all users.

What you can do

  • Search meeting transcripts by keyword, date, organizer or participant
  • Retrieve meeting metadata and summaries
  • Filter meetings by channel or folder
  • Create soundbites from meetings
  • Share meetings with other people
  • Look up user and team data

Tools

Fireflies lists its tools only after you sign in, so we can’t show them here. Your client lists them once you’re connected.

Example prompts

  • Find meetings from last week where we discussed the product roadmap

  • Summarize my latest meeting with action items

  • Search transcripts for mentions of pricing since December 1

  • List the meetings in my Sales channel from this month

Set up

Every client connects to api.fireflies.ai, and Fireflies.ai asks you to sign in the first time. Pick yours; the page remembers your choice.

Claude Code

  1. Run this in a terminal, in your project folder:
claude mcp add --transport http fireflies https://api.fireflies.ai/mcp
  1. Start Claude Code, type /mcp, pick fireflies and choose Authenticate. A browser window opens for the Fireflies.ai sign-in.

Add --scope user to make it available in every project, not just this one.

Claude Desktop

  1. Open Settings → Connectors and click Add custom connector.
  2. Name it Fireflies and paste this URL:
https://api.fireflies.ai/mcp
  1. Click Add, then Connect, and sign in when Fireflies.ai asks.

Claude Desktop’s JSON config file only starts local servers. Remote servers go through Connectors, and connectors you add on claude.ai show up here too.

claude.ai

  1. Open the connector form on claude.ai. This button fills in the name and URL for you:
  1. Check that the URL reads https://api.fireflies.ai/mcp and click Add.
  2. Click Connect and sign in when Fireflies.ai asks.

Free plans allow one custom connector. On Team and Enterprise plans an owner adds it under Organization settings → Connectors.

ChatGPT

  1. On chatgpt.com, open Settings → Security and login and turn on Developer mode.
  2. Go to chatgpt.com/plugins and click + to create an app for a remote MCP server.
  3. Paste https://api.fireflies.ai/mcp as the server URL and choose OAuth. ChatGPT sends you to Fireflies.ai to sign in.

Developer mode is available on the web for Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise and Education accounts.

Cursor

Or add it by hand to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (all projects) or .cursor/mcp.json (this project):

mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "fireflies": {
      "url": "https://api.fireflies.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cursor shows Needs login next to the server. Click it to sign in.

VS Code

Or from a terminal:

code --add-mcp '{"name":"fireflies","type":"http","url":"https://api.fireflies.ai/mcp"}'

Or commit it to the repo in .vscode/mcp.json:

.vscode/mcp.json
{
  "servers": {
    "fireflies": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.fireflies.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}

VS Code asks you to sign in the first time the server starts.

Devin Desktop

  1. Add it to ~/.config/devin/mcp_config.json (macOS and Linux) or %APPDATA%\devin\mcp_config.json (Windows):
mcp_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "fireflies": {
      "serverUrl": "https://api.fireflies.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. Refresh the MCP server list in Cascade and sign in when asked.

Devin Desktop is the new name for Windsurf. It reads serverUrl (or url) for remote servers.

Codex

codex mcp add fireflies --url https://api.fireflies.ai/mcp
codex mcp login fireflies

Or edit ~/.codex/config.toml directly:

config.toml
[mcp_servers.fireflies]
url = "https://api.fireflies.ai/mcp"

Gemini CLI

gemini mcp add --transport http fireflies https://api.fireflies.ai/mcp

Then, inside Gemini CLI, run /mcp auth fireflies to sign in.

This adds it to the current project. Add -s user to use it everywhere.

Any client

Most clients accept this shape. Some name the URL field differently: serverUrl in Devin Desktop, httpUrl in Gemini CLI’s settings file.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "fireflies": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.fireflies.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Zed puts servers under context_servers in its settings. Cline needs "type": "streamableHttp", or it assumes SSE.

Client only starts local servers? Bridge it with npx -y mcp-remote https://api.fireflies.ai/mcp.

FAQ

Can I paste mcp.tc/i/fireflies into my MCP client?

No. mcp.tc links are pages, not server addresses. Connect with https://api.fireflies.ai/mcp, so your client talks to Fireflies directly. The sign-in token only works there anyway. The quick link is for sharing: it opens this page, with setup steps for every client.

Does Fireflies need an API key or a sign-in?

Yes, you need a Fireflies.ai account. The first time your client connects, it opens Fireflies.ai’s sign-in page. The token goes straight to the server’s own URL, never through mcp.tc.

Is Fireflies a remote or a local server?

Remote. Fireflies.ai hosts it at https://api.fireflies.ai/mcp, and it speaks Streamable HTTP. There’s nothing to install.

What can Fireflies do?

You can search meeting transcripts by keyword, date, organizer or participant, retrieve meeting metadata and summaries and filter meetings by channel or folder.

Which clients can use it?

Any client that supports remote MCP servers: Claude Code, Claude Desktop, claude.ai, ChatGPT in developer mode, Cursor, VS Code, Devin Desktop, Codex, Gemini CLI, Zed and others. The setup steps cover each one.

Who wrote this page?

mcp.tc’s robot read Fireflies’s own metadata (its MCP handshake, tool list and public pages), and an AI model drafted the text from it. A person reviews anything the checks can’t confirm. The text can still be wrong, so if you spot a mistake, use Report this listing on this page.
