You can run and connect an MCP server that enables AI agents to directly control and optimize video compilation workflows. This server exposes tools for creating AI-enhanced video compilations, optimizing search queries, batching projects, and monitoring workflow status, making it easy to automate and scale video production powered by AI.

How to use

Connect your AI agent or editor to the Video Compilation MCP server to create, optimize, and manage AI-enhanced video compilations. Use the available tools to generate new compilations, refine search queries for better results, run multiple compilations in parallel, and monitor progress and outcomes from a single interface.

How to install

Prerequisites: ensure Node.js is installed on your machine.

Steps to install and run the MCP server locally:

# 1. Install dependencies for the project
npm install

# 2. Start the MCP server (standard development command)
npm run start:mcp

# 3. Run basic tests to verify setup
npm run test:mcp

Configuration to connect an AI agent

You can connect an AI agent to the MCP server by configuring the agent’s MCP integration with the following local setup example.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "n8n-video-compilation": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/n8n-money/mcp-server.js"],
      "env": {
        "N8N_BASE_URL": "http://localhost:5678/api",
        "N8N_API_KEY": "your_api_key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Using the MCP tools

The server provides a set of tools to manage video compilation workflows. You can create AI-enhanced compilations, optimize search queries, run multiple compilations in batch, list available workflows, and monitor workflow status.

Troubleshooting and tips

If you run into connection issues, verify that the MCP server is running and the client is configured to point at the correct host and port. Check that environment variables needed by the client are set, and ensure network access between the client and the MCP server.
