Transloadit Media Processing — Claude Code MCP server
Connect an agent to Transloadit Robots to process video, audio, images, and documents. The hosted endpoint uses OAuth sign-in.
claude mcp add --transport http mcp-server https://api2.transloadit.com/mcpWhat Transloadit Media Processing does
The server gives an agent access to media processing through Transloadit Robots. To use the hosted endpoint, connect by URL; the MCP client opens a consent page in the Transloadit Console during OAuth sign-in. An account is required before hosted tools run.
You can run the server yourself over stdio or HTTP. Self-hosting requires TRANSLOADIT_KEY and TRANSLOADIT_SECRET. For HTTP bound to a non-localhost address, set TRANSLOADIT_MCP_TOKEN or TRANSLOADIT_MCP_RESOURCE_METADATA_URL; a signing algorithm mismatch causes mcp_invalid_signature.
What it helps with
- process video through Transloadit Robots
- send audio files for processing
- process images with Transloadit
- submit documents to Transloadit
Example prompts for the agent
- Process this video through Transloadit Robots.
- Send this audio file to Transloadit for processing.
- Process these images and documents with Transloadit.
