Message Communication Protocol server for json2video API integration
Message Communication Protocol server for json2video API integration. Exposed over MCP by the json2video mcp server, that capability becomes something an assistant can invoke while it works, not something you go and do afterwards.
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation for programmatically generating videos using the json2video API. This server exposes powerful video generation and status-checking tools for use with LLMs, agents, or any MCP-compatible client.
Installation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at @omerrgocmen/json2video-mcp 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.
You will need one environment variable: JSON2VIDEO_API_KEY. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.
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. It is maintained by omergocmen; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
This entry was verified against Json2video's own documentation before publication; SyncDev keeps the directory reviewed rather than auto-generated.
