What is the Cloudglue MCP server?

If you want an AI assistant working directly with Cloudglue, the cloudglue mcp server is the bridge. Cloudglue MCP Server.

What Cloudglue does

Connect Cloudglue to Cursor, Claude Desktop, and other AI assistants to unlock the power of video collection understanding. Cloudglue helps turn your videos into structured data ready for LLMs.

Installing the cloudglue mcp server

Setup follows the standard MCP pattern: clone or install the server, then register it in your client's configuration file and restart the client. The configuration snippets on this page cover Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor.

Configuration

Before the server will start you need to supply 3 environment variables: SOME_ID, SOME_OTHER_ID, SOME_KEY. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than committing them.

Requirements

First, get a Cloudglue API Key from cloudglue.dev, this will be used to authenticate the MCP server with your Cloudglue account.

Where it fits

Developer-tool servers are usually the first ones people connect, because they turn "help me with this code" into an assistant that can actually read the repo and act on it. Cloudglue sits in that group. Worth comparing against the other developer tools servers in this directory before you commit to one, since several overlap in scope but differ sharply in setup cost and permissions.

Practical notes

  • This server runs locally, so it operates with whatever access your machine and its credentials already have. Scope that deliberately rather than by default.
  • It will not start until its required credentials are present, so set those before wondering why the tools never appear.
  • Maintained by aviaryhq.
  • MCP clients ask for confirmation before each tool call by default. Keep that on while you learn what the cloudglue mcp server actually does with your data.
  • Every entry in this directory is reviewed by hand before it goes live, and details are checked against the project's own documentation.
