Martini — Claude Code MCP server: what it does, how to install
Connects AI assistants to the Martini video production platform to manage film projects, scenes, assets, and generation jobs via MCP.
claude mcp add --transport http mcp https://www.martini.film/mcpWhat Martini does
The server runs remotely over HTTP at https://www.martini.film/mcp. You do not need to download local binaries or supply API keys manually. Authentication relies entirely on Martini's web OAuth flow.
Once connected, an assistant can inspect your video projects, draft scene breakdowns, organize bins, and trigger generation jobs. Gemini CLI users also get prompt wrapper commands like /martini:overview or /martini:generate-plan.
Always check the parameters before confirming write or generation actions. Testing automated prompts in throwaway projects prevents unintended asset edits and unnecessary rendering runs.
What it helps with
- create scene breakdowns for video production projects
- inspect uploaded assets and project bins in Martini
- trigger and monitor video generation jobs directly from chat
- organize character subjects and reference media
Example prompts for the agent
- List my Martini projects and give a summary of the latest scenes
- Draft a new Martini project structure for a 30-second coffee commercial
- /martini:generate-plan
