CloudGlue MCP Server

Connect CloudGlue to Cursor, Claude Desktop, and other AI assistants to unlock the power of video collection understanding. CloudGlue helps your videos into structured data ready for LLMs.

📖 Resources

By using the CloudGlue SDK and/or the MCP server, you agree to the CloudGlue Terms of Service and acknowledge our Privacy Policy.

Setup

1. API Key

First, get a CloudGlue API Key from cloudglue.dev, this will be used to authenticate the MCP server with your CloudGlue account.

2. Configure MCP client

Next, configure your MCP client (e.g. Claude Desktop) to use this MCP server. Most MCP clients store the configuration as JSON, for cloudglue-mcp-server this would look like the following:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cloudglue": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@aviaryhq/cloudglue-mcp-server@latest"
      ],
      "env": {
        "CLOUDGLUE_API_KEY": "<YOUR-API-KEY>"
        }
    }
  }
}

Replace <YOUR-API-KEY> with the API Key created in step 1. Alternatively instead of the environment variable you could pass in the API key to the server via the --api-key CLI flag.

Local Development Setup

1. API Key

First, get a CloudGlue API Key from cloudglue.dev, this will be used to authenticate the MCP server with your CloudGlue account.

2. Install and build server locally

You can build this server locally via:

npm run build

3. Configure MCP client

Next, configure your MCP client (such as Cursor) to use this server. Most MCP clients store the configuration as JSON in the following format:

{
  "mcpServers": {
      "cloudglue-mcp-server": {
          "command": "node",
          "args": [
              "/ABSOLUTE/PATH/TO/PARENT/FOLDER/cloudglue-mcp-server/build/index.js",
              "--api-key",
              "<YOUR-API-KEY>"
          ]
      }
  }
}
