What is the Hooked Video API MCP MCP server?

If you already use Hooked Video API MCP, the hooked video api mcp mcp server is the piece that lets your assistant work with it directly. Model Context Protocol server for the Hooked Video API. Let AI agents (Claude, GPT, Cursor, etc.) create videos programmatically.

Available tools

The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:

  • list_avatars — List available AI avatars
  • list_voices — List available AI voices
  • list_music — List background music tracks
  • create_script_to_video — Create video from a script with AI avatar
  • create_prompt_to_video — Create video from a text prompt (AI generates everything)
  • create_tiktok_slideshow — Create TikTok-style slideshow
  • create_ugc_ad — Create UGC-style ad video
  • get_video — Check video status and get download URL
  • list_videos — List recent videos
  • get_trending_videos — Get trending videos for inspiration

Installation

Installation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at pnpm on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.

Credentials and setup notes

Configuration is passed through the environment: HOOKED_API_KEY, HOOKED_API_URL. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.

Where it fits

Among the developer tooling options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. Hooked Video API MCP's toolset — list_avatars, list_voices, list_music and 7 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow.

SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.

Worth knowing first

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • With 10 tools registered it takes up a noticeable share of the context window; turn it off in projects that never touch Hooked Video API MCP.
  • Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients — if no tools show up, check the environment block first.
  • Keep per-call confirmation enabled while you learn its behaviour; it is the cheapest safeguard you have.
