[Listed on mcpservers.org]
Create and clip video from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Cline or Windsurf: generate AI videos (Seedance 2.5, Kling 3.0, Veo 3.1, MiniMax H3) and images (Nano Banana Pro, GPT Image 2), build consistent AI influencer characters, swap a character into a clip with its original motion and sound (Morphaze), and turn any video or live stream into scored, captioned, ready-to-post vertical clips.
ClipSpeedAI ships two MCP transports, and they expose different tools:
Most people want the hosted server — it needs no install, no API key, and it is the only one
that can generate AI video and images or clip a stream that is still running. Use this npm package when you specifically need
finished files written to your local disk.
Requires a ClipSpeedAI paid plan or the $1 trial. For the npm package, get your key at
https://www.clipspeed.ai/dashboard/api-key/ — keys look like csai_live_....
Always pin [email protected]. Pinning keeps a bad publish from silently upgrading your setup.
Install
Claude Desktop (one command)
It prompts for your API key and writes the clipspeed server into your Claude Desktop config for you. You can also pass the key directly:
Then quit and reopen Claude Desktop.
Claude Code
Cursor / Cline / Windsurf
Add this to your MCP servers config (~/.cursor/mcp.json, Cline's MCP settings, or Windsurf's mcp_config.json):
Hosted (no install, no API key) — recommended
The hosted server authenticates with OAuth, so there is no key to copy and nothing to install:
Your client opens a browser once, you approve, and it is connected. In claude.ai or
ChatGPT, add it as a custom connector with the same URL.
Hosted tools (10):
The four livestream tools exist only on the hosted server. If you want to clip a Twitch,
Kick or YouTube stream while it is running, use the hosted transport — the npm package cannot
do it. Conversely, only the npm package can write .mp4 files to your local disk.
Environment
Node >= 18 (uses global fetch).
Tools (npm package / local stdio)
These are the tools this package exposes. For the hosted server's tool set — including the
four livestream tools — see Hosted above.
Caption styles: karaoke (default), hormozi, beasty, fire, youshaei, cinematic, bold.
Aspect ratios: 9:16 (default), 1:1, 16:9.
To let ClipSpeedAI publish to your socials, connect each platform in the ClipSpeedAI app first (Scheduler). schedule_post posts under those connections.
The demo prompt
Clip this video into 9:16 shorts with Hormozi captions, then download the top 3 to my Downloads folder: https://youtu.be/…
Claude runs clip_video → polls get_clip_status → download_clip → the .mp4s land in ~/Downloads.
A Claude Skill (SKILL.md) ships with this package — it teaches the outcome-first flow (find → clip → check → download → schedule).
Security
- Your API key is never logged. It only ever lands in your MCP client's config file (or your shell env).
- Never commit your key or share it. Rotate it any time at https://www.clipspeed.ai/dashboard/api-key/.
- Keys are tied to one account, rate-limited per plan, and hashed at rest on ClipSpeedAI's servers.
