Transcodely MCP Server

Video transcoding and hosting for AI agents, over the Model Context Protocol.

smithery badge

Transcodely is agent-native video infrastructure: transcode, host, and get a playable link back from one natural-language prompt. Connect with one OAuth click — no API key to create or paste — then hand your agent a video URL.

This is the public home of the hosted server: connect instructions, the tool surface, and the registry manifest. The server itself is a hosted service — there is nothing to install or run.

Connect

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http transcodely https://mcp.transcodely.com/mcp

Then run /mcp inside Claude Code and pick Authenticate — your browser opens, you approve, and the tools are live. No Transcodely account yet? One is created for you during authorization.

claude.ai / Claude desktop — Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector → https://mcp.transcodely.com/mcp.

Cursor — add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "transcodely": { "type": "http", "url": "https://mcp.transcodely.com/mcp" }
  }
}

Any other client that supports remote MCP servers over streamable HTTP works the same way. For headless use (CI, server-side agents), attach a Transcodely API key as a bearer token instead — see the connect guide.

Tools (7)

ToolEffect
create_video_from_urlIngest an https:// video, transcode it into an adaptive ladder, host it — returns a video that becomes playable when ready

Nothing on this surface deletes or modifies existing data: four tools only read, three create work.

Try it

  1. "Transcode and host this video and give me a link: https://www.transcodely.com/videos/bbb-30s.mp4"
  2. "Generate English captions for that video."
  3. "What's the status of my last job?"
  4. "How much have I spent on video this month, and which day cost the most?"

Auth and guardrails

  • OAuth 2.1 with PKCE via browser consent; the server implements RFC 9728 Protected Resource Metadata and RFC 8707 resource indicators.
  • Every tool call is scoped to a single Transcodely app and writes the same audit trail as REST calls.
  • The MCP server is free to connect; work an agent starts is billed at the ordinary Transcodely rates. Read-only tools are free to call.

Manifest

server.json is the manifest published to the official MCP registry.
