Video tools with an official MCP server
Last checked · 10 tools
Video apps like OpusClip, Descript and Riverside now run their own MCP servers. Connect one and Claude, Codex or Cursor can clip, caption, edit or render in that app for you
What is an official MCP server for a video app?
It's an MCP server run by the company that makes the app, like OpusClip, Descript or Riverside. You add one web address to Claude Code, Codex or Cursor, sign in, and the agent can clip, caption, edit or render inside that app. Nothing runs on your computer, but the work spends your plan's credits and some tools can post to social accounts, so read the plan before you say go
