Integrate
Let an agent make the video
Zvid’s MCP server turns the entire rendering API into agent tools, so any MCP client can create renders, manage templates and webhooks, and check credits in natural language — and validate the JSON before spending a credit.
AI agents
The API, as agent tools
The Zvid MCP server exposes the whole rendering platform to AI agents through the Model Context Protocol. Any MCP client — Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor, and more — gets 30 tools covering renders, bulk jobs, templates, project CRUD, webhooks, and account usage, callable in plain language.
What makes agent output actually render is the schema-aware layer: tools that teach the agent Zvid’s exact project format, a free pre-flight validator that resolves templates and applies your real plan limits without spending credits, and a repair tool that fixes common mistakes. It runs locally over stdio or as a hosted HTTP service.
What you get
Agent-ready by design
30 MCP tools
Renders, bulk, templates, projects, webhooks, and account usage — the full API surface as agent tools.
Schema-aware authoring
Tools that hand the agent the exact schema, supported elements, docs, and validated example payloads.
Validate before you spend
A free pre-flight validator resolves templates and applies real plan limits — with zero credits used.
Auto-repair
A repair tool conservatively fixes wrong-case types, out-of-range numbers, and format conflicts, returning a change log.
Two transports
Run locally over stdio, or as a stateless Streamable HTTP service for hosted, multi-client setups.
One shared schema
Every integration validates against the same zvid-schema package, so all tools agree on what’s valid — offline.

Frequently asked questions
Which agents can use it? +
Any Model Context Protocol client — including Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, and Cursor — can connect and call Zvid’s tools.
How does it avoid wasting credits on bad JSON? +
Agents can call a free validation tool that resolves templates and applies your plan limits without enqueuing anything, plus a repair tool that fixes common issues before submission.
Can I self-host it? +
Yes. The server runs locally over stdio or as a stateless HTTP service you can host yourself for multi-client access.
