Compeller

Official registry Media and design

Create and track AI music videos and audio-reactive visuals from songs.

Install

Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).

Remote (streamable-http)
Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http compeller 'https://compeller.ai/api/mcp' --header 'Authorization: <Bearer token from Compeller Account → API Access, POST /api/login, or POST /api/v1/auth/token. Discovery tools work without this header; generation/account tools require it.>' --header 'X-API-Token: <Alternative Compeller API token header. Use this instead of Authorization if your MCP client stores token values without the Bearer prefix.>'

Compeller MCP

Public documentation and metadata for the hosted Compeller MCP server.

Compeller turns music into performance-ready visuals. Agents can discover styles and pricing, search for music, create and track Compels, start renders, retrieve finished videos, and register signed webhooks for completion events.

This repository contains public connector documentation and metadata only. The production Compeller application source code is not published here.

Remote MCP endpoint

https://compeller.ai/api/mcp

Quick config

Most MCP clients that support remote Streamable HTTP servers can use:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "compeller": {
      "url": "https://compeller.ai/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_COMPELLER_API_TOKEN"
      }
    }
  }
}

If your MCP client stores raw token values without the Bearer prefix, use the alternate header:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "compeller": {
      "url": "https://compeller.ai/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Token": "YOUR_COMPELLER_API_TOKEN"
      }
    }
  }
}

Discovery works without authentication. Generation, account, media, rendering, and webhook tools require a Compeller API token.

  • “Show me available Compeller visual styles.”
  • “Check the status of Compel 12345.”
  • “Start the render for this READY Compel.”
  • “Register a webhook for completed/failed Compeller events.”

Discovery tools work without this header; generation/account tools require it.>' --header 'X-API-Token: <Alternative Compeller API token header. Use this instead of Authorization if your MCP client stores token values without the Bearer prefix.>'. For other clients, paste the JSON configuration from this page into their MCP settings.

Does Compeller need an API key?

Yes. It expects Authorization, X-API-Token, which you set in its configuration.

Is Compeller open source?

Yes. Its code is on GitHub under the MIT license.

Who maintains Compeller?

It is published by Compellerai. AI.tn lists it but does not maintain or endorse it.

From the official MCP Registry. Listing is not an endorsement: review a server's code and permissions before giving it access to your data.
