ElevenLabs · elevenlabs — Claude Code MCP server: what it does, how to install
Brings ElevenLabs voice capabilities to coding agents for speech generation, transcription, sound design, and conversational assistant testing.
claude mcp add --transport http mcp https://api.us.elevenlabs.io/v1/mcpWhat ElevenLabs does
This server integrates your coding workspace with the remote endpoint at https://api.us.elevenlabs.io/v1/mcp. It allows assistants to produce natural speech in over 70 languages, isolate vocal tracks from noisy recordings, generate sound textures, and transcribe audio files using Scribe v2.
Beyond basic audio generation, it streamlines conversational bot development. Agents can manage multi-branch workflows, attach client tools, run automated simulation tests, and import existing setups from Retell, Vapi, or Bland. Live requests will fail immediately if you do not configure an ElevenLabs API key.
What it helps with
- render natural speech in 70+ languages
- transcribe spoken audio using Scribe v2
- strip background noise from dialogue recordings
- generate custom music tracks and sound textures
- author and evaluate voice agent conversation flows
Example prompts for the agent
- "Transcribe this audio interview using Scribe v2 and isolate the main voice."
- "Generate a realistic ambient sound effect based on this scene description."
- "Create a simulation test to verify the assistant triggers the required webhook."
