Installation

Ajoutez ceci à la configuration MCP de votre client (Claude Desktop : claude_desktop_config.json ; Cursor : .cursor/mcp.json ; VS Code et les autres utilisent la même forme « mcpServers »).

NPM package @sylphx/cue
Claude Code 
claude mcp add cue -- npx -y @sylphx/cue@0.3.5
Configuration JSON (Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code)

Cue

Video answers with timestamp-level proof

Cue gives agents a local video timeline they can search and cite. The default read returns container metadata, streams, chapters, and embedded subtitles. Scenes and frames are separate.

npx -y @sylphx/cue

For Claude Code:

claude mcp add cue -- npx -y @sylphx/cue

Read a local video

{
  "sources": [{ "path": "/absolute/path/to/demo.mp4" }]
}

That call uses the fast profile. It returns container metadata, streams, chapters, and embedded subtitles. It does not detect scenes, extract frames, or run speech recognition.

Then ask:

“Which chapter covers the pricing change?”

Cue returns chapter and subtitle locators with timestamp_ms and the source hash. It does not invent a transcript. A quote search matches embedded subtitles only. Render or crop a frame afterwards with video_evidence, once you have a timestamp.

Jobs Cue is built for

Ask your agentCue returns
“Find this quote.”a timestamped match in embedded subtitles, when those subtitles exist
“Summarize this meeting.”chapters and embedded subtitles
“Where is the code shown?”one frame from video_evidence at a known timestamp
“What changed in this demo?”scene boundaries when profile is quality or include_scenes is set
“Give me the useful moments.”chapters, embedded subtitles, warnings, and gaps

Tool surface

ToolPurpose
read_videoDefault fast profile: container metadata, streams, chapters, and embedded subtitles. Scenes are opt-in.
search_videoSearch embedded subtitle cues. It does not run speech recognition.
video_evidenceNamed follow-up: render, crop, or OCR one frame at a timestamp

Predictable defaults

  • Omitted profile is fast: container metadata, streams, chapters, and embedded subtitles. No scenes, frames, or speech recognition.
  • profile quality adds ffmpeg scene detection. It does not extract frames or run speech recognition.
  • include_keyframes and include_transcript stay off. Setting either one on the shipped server returns a warning and an empty array.
  • OCR stays on video_evidence.
  • No cloud video API or frame-by-frame vision model is required.
  • Missing ffprobe or embedded subtitles is reported as a gap, not guessed around.

Why agents trust it

Every claim can point back to timestamp_ms, a stream index, a subtitle range, or the source hash. A frame index is present only after video_evidence.
