Coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code)

Replace gt_live_XXXX with your API key. When you create or rotate a key on your Account page, one-click "Add to Cursor" and "Add to VS Code" buttons set everything up for you.

Rotating a key revokes the old one immediately and gives you a new key with the same name — use it if a key may have leaked.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http gimmetext https://gimmetext.com/api/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer gt_live_XXXX"

Cursor

~/.cursor/mcp.json (or .cursor/mcp.json in your project):

  "mcpServers": {
    "gimmetext": {

      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer gt_live_XXXX" }
    }
  }
}

VS Code

  "servers": {
    "gimmetext": {
      "type": "http",

Tools

Tool	What it does
`create_upload_link`	Returns a single-use link (valid 30 minutes) where you drop a file while signed in.
`list_jobs`	Your recent jobs, newest first (`limit` 1–100).
`get_job`	Status, progress and error for one job.
`get_transcript`	Transcript as `txt`, `srt` or `json`. Long transcripts come in pages: pass `offset` and `max_chars` (1000–100000, default 50000); follow `next_offset` until it is absent.
`get_usage`	Your plan and remaining minutes.

Prompts

Prompt	What it does
`summarize_recording`	Summarize my recording: a short summary plus key points.
`meeting_action_items`	Pull action items from a meeting: decisions, action items with owners if mentioned, and open questions.
`lecture_study_notes`	Turn a lecture into study notes: an outline, key terms with definitions, and 5 review questions.

Each prompt accepts an optional job_id (UUID); omit it to use your latest finished recording. Discover them with prompts/list and request one with prompts/get. The response is a single user message guiding your AI to check get_job, then fetch every page with get_transcript before answering; it never embeds transcript text. Poll unfinished jobs about every 10 seconds until done or failed.

Example conversation

You: Give me an upload link.
AI: Here's your link: https://gimmetext.com/app/upload?t=XXXX (single use, 30 minutes).

Open it, drop your video or audio file, wait for it to finish.

You: Summarise my latest transcript.
AI: (calls list_jobs, then get_job, then every page of get_transcript) Here's a summary…

Transcript text is treated as information, never as instructions to the AI.
