What is the Opusclip MCP server?

Opusclip MCP server exists for a simple reason — assistants are far more useful when they can act on Opusclip directly instead of describing what you should do. Connect your agent to OpusClip — turn long videos into AI-curated short clips.

What you get

Turn long videos into AI-curated short clips — from your agent. Submit a video file or URL and OpusClip finds the best moments, adds captions, reframes to vertical, and returns ready-to-post clips. It can also generate thumbnails and social copy, pull transcripts, and schedule posts to your connected social accounts.

Setting it up

Being a remote server, there is no local install. You register the endpoint with your client, authorise it once, and the tools appear.

What the assistant can call

Once Opusclip is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:

  • Endpoint — ** https://mcp.opus.pro/mcp (Streamable HTTP + OAuth)
  • Docs — ** https://help.opus.pro/api-reference/agent-setup
  • Curate — submit a video (file or URL) and get AI-picked clips scored for virality
  • Edit — apply an editing script (trim, reframe, layout, captions) to a clip
  • Thumbnails — generate thumbnail options for a clip
  • Collections — group clips and export them
  • Usage — check your remaining credits and plan
  • Client — How
  • Cursor — Settings → Tools & MCP → New MCP Server, or the one-click Add to Cursor button in our docs
  • Cline — Add the config above to cline_mcp_settings.json (see llms-install.md)

Before you rely on it

  • Your data travels to the provider's service, so the usual questions apply about what you send and what they retain.
  • With 10 tools registered it takes up a noticeable share of the context window; turn it off in projects that never touch Opusclip.
  • MCP clients confirm each tool call by default. Leave that on until you have watched what the opusclip mcp server does with a few real requests.

Choosing this one

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. Opusclip's toolset — Endpoint, Docs, Curate 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.

Frequently asked questions

It connects Opusclip to MCP-compatible AI assistants such as Claude and Cursor, exposing 10 tools (Endpoint, Docs, Curate, and more) that the assistant can call on your behalf. Instead of copying data back and forth by hand, the assistant works with Opusclip directly.
