ClipOnIt MCP Server

Turn a long video into short, subtitled, auto-reframed clips — driven from Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP client.

ClipOnIt is a hosted video clipping service. This repository documents its remote MCP server, so that an AI assistant can run the whole pipeline on your behalf: import a video, find the best moments, reframe on faces, add word-by-word subtitles, and export vertical clips.

Endpoint: https://cliponit.app/mcp (Streamable HTTP)

Connect

Claude.ai / Claude Desktop — Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector → paste https://cliponit.app/mcp → Connect → sign in → Authorize.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http cliponit https://cliponit.app/mcp

Then /mcp → Authenticate.

ChatGPT — Settings → Connectors → Developer mode → Create → URL https://cliponit.app/mcp → OAuth.

Anything else — the server speaks JSON-RPC 2.0 over HTTP POST and advertises OAuth 2.1 metadata at /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource.

Authentication

OAuth 2.1 with Dynamic Client Registration (RFC 7591) and PKCE (S256) — no manual key needed; your client registers itself. An API key (Authorization: Bearer ck_…, created from the billing page) works too for scripts. API and MCP access are included from the Starter plan.

Formats: 9:16, 16:9, 1:1 and 4:5, each with its own independent edit. Subtitles come in five styles, word by word.

Example

"Take my last uploaded video, find the 5 best moments, reframe them on the speaker, add yellow karaoke subtitles, and export them in 9:16."

The assistant chains list_videos → get_video → auto_reframe → update_clip_edit → export_clip → wait_export and hands back the MP4 links.
