Using as an MCP Server
The MCP Server can be run in two modes: stdio (for local testing) or http (for networked access). To start the server, use the following commands:
Run in stdio mode (default):
audio-transcriber-mcp
Run in HTTP mode:
audio-transcriber-mcp --transport "http" --host "0.0.0.0" --port "8000"

Deploy MCP Server as a Service
The ServiceNow MCP server can be deployed using Docker, with configurable authentication, middleware, and Eunomia authorization.
Using Docker Run
docker pull knucklessg1/audio-transcriber:latest
docker run -d \
--name audio-transcriber-mcp \
-p 8004:8004 \
-e HOST=0.0.0.0 \
-e PORT=8004 \
-e TRANSPORT=http \
-e AUTH_TYPE=none \
-e EUNOMIA_TYPE=none \
knucklessg1/audio-transcriber:latest
For advanced authentication (e.g., JWT, OAuth Proxy, OIDC Proxy, Remote OAuth) or Eunomia, add the relevant environment variables:
docker run -d \
--name audio-transcriber-mcp \
-p 8004:8004 \
-e HOST=0.0.0.0 \
-e PORT=8004 \
-e TRANSPORT=http \
-e AUTH_TYPE=oidc-proxy \
-e OIDC_CONFIG_URL=https://provider.com/.well-known/openid-configuration \
-e OIDC_CLIENT_ID=your-client-id \
-e OIDC_CLIENT_SECRET=your-client-secret \
-e OIDC_BASE_URL=https://your-server.com \
-e ALLOWED_CLIENT_REDIRECT_URIS=http://localhost:*,https://*.example.com/* \
-e EUNOMIA_TYPE=embedded \
-e EUNOMIA_POLICY_FILE=/app/mcp_policies.json \
knucklessg1/audio-transcriber:latest
Using Docker Compose
Create a docker-compose.yml file:
services:
audio-transcriber-mcp:
image: knucklessg1/audio-transcriber:latest
environment:
- HOST=0.0.0.0
- PORT=8004
- TRANSPORT=http
- AUTH_TYPE=none
- EUNOMIA_TYPE=none
ports:
- 8004:8004
For advanced setups with authentication and Eunomia:
services:
audio-transcriber-mcp:
image: knucklessg1/audio-transcriber:latest
environment:
- HOST=0.0.0.0
- PORT=8004
- TRANSPORT=http
- AUTH_TYPE=oidc-proxy
- OIDC_CONFIG_URL=https://provider.com/.well-known/openid-configuration
- OIDC_CLIENT_ID=your-client-id
- OIDC_CLIENT_SECRET=your-client-secret
- OIDC_BASE_URL=https://your-server.com
- ALLOWED_CLIENT_REDIRECT_URIS=http://localhost:*,https://*.example.com/*
- EUNOMIA_TYPE=embedded
- EUNOMIA_POLICY_FILE=/app/mcp_policies.json
ports:
- 8004:8004
volumes:
- ./mcp_policies.json:/app/mcp_policies.json
Run the service:
docker-compose up -d
