Connect OpusClip AI Producer MCP
Connect the OpusClip AI Producer MCP server to Codex or Claude Code. MCP gives your agent access to video editing tools; this connection does not install the plugin skills.
Installation contract
Production. MCP endpoint: https://producer.opus.pro/api/mcp.
- Use only the section for your current client. Codex is the primary supported client; Claude Code is also supported. Do not install into both just because both executables exist.
- These terminal instructions require Codex or Claude Code with shell access and support for remote HTTP MCP servers.
- Inspect the existing installation first. Keep a working installation on this environment. Preserve unrelated plugins, servers, and configuration.
- Use this page's endpoint. If an existing installation targets another environment, switch only the AI Producer installation using the recovery instructions below.
- Let the user complete browser sign-in with their OpusClip account. Never ask them to paste passwords, cookies, or access tokens into the conversation.
- Installation ends after verification. Do not request a video, upload files, create a project, edit, or render as an installation test.
Install in Codex
- 1
Inspect the current configuration. A missing AI Producer entry means installation is needed; a command that is unavailable means the client must be updated or a supported installation surface used.
Inspect installationcodex mcp get aip
- 2
If the server is absent, register this endpoint. If the full plugin already supplies it, keep that connection rather than adding a duplicate server.
Add MCP servercodex mcp add aip --url https://producer.opus.pro/api/mcp
The add command can start OAuth and wait for browser sign-in. Complete that flow and let the command return. Use the login command below if authentication did not finish.
- 3
Sign in if this connection is not already authenticated. Open the authorization URL and let the user complete browser sign-in.

Check that the effective server URL is

enabled: trueconfirms configuration only. It does not prove successful authentication. Start a new task if the installed tools are not loaded.In the loaded session, verify that the AI Producer tools are available and call
get_pricingwith{}. A successful structured response verifies an authenticated read without uploading media, creating a project, or spending credits.Report the client, target environment, authentication, and tool verification separately. If a new session or sign-in is still needed, name that pending step instead of claiming the installation is ready.
Configuration fallback
If the CLI cannot add the server, merge only this entry into ~/.codex/config.toml. Preserve other entries, then sign in. This configuration supplies MCP tools only.

Inside a session,
/mcp, select theaipserver, then authenticate. Use this path if the installed CLI has no login command. If an authenticate tool is exposed for that server, it can start the same browser flow. - 4

A connected status confirms the server connection; a configuration listing alone does not. Start a new session if the installed tools are not loaded.
In the loaded session, verify that the AI Producer tools are available and call
get_pricingwith{}. A successful structured response verifies an authenticated read without uploading media, creating a project, or spending credits.Report the client, target environment, authentication, and tool verification separately. If a new session or sign-in is still needed, name that pending step instead of claiming the installation is ready.
Configuration fallback
If the CLI cannot add the server, merge only this entry into the client MCP configuration. Preserve other entries, then sign in. This configuration supplies MCP tools only.

}Troubleshooting
The installation points at another environment
Compare the actual MCP URL with this page's endpoint. Credentials belong to that endpoint; sign in again after switching environments.
Update only the existing aip server entry to the endpoint above, then sign in and verify it.
The server is missing after installation
Start a new task or session and inspect the installed plugin and MCP tools again. Check the client version and plugin installation errors. Do not treat a missing tool in the installing session as a reason to upload a video or create a project.
Sign-in fails or expires
Use the sign-in step for your client. If the response includes a reason or recovery, follow that specific recovery. A wrong endpoint, account access restriction, or disabled service is not fixed by repeatedly logging in. For 401 or invalid_grant caused by an expired or revoked grant, authenticate again.
The endpoint returns 404 or cannot be reached
Verify the endpoint and network access first. An HTTP GET returning 405is expected for this MCP transport and is not an authentication test. Use the client's MCP connection and read-only verification. Do not switch to another environment as an automatic fallback.
Editing is refused with upgrade_required
This connection has no plugin bundle or plugin version headers. If the service requires a supported plugin for editing, use the plugin installation page. Reads may still work; a successful read does not prove that editing is permitted.
Need the editing skills?
For the complete editing workflow, install the plugin. It includes these MCP tools and the editing skills.
