How to Use the AssemblyAI MCP in Cline
Cline builds your media dashboard by connecting directly to the AssemblyAI tools you need.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect AssemblyAI MCP to Cline
Create your Vinkius account to connect AssemblyAI to Cline and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Automate transcriptions inside Cline
Give Cline a link and it will use `transcribe_audio_url` to turn your audio into text. It writes the results directly into your project files. Need to keep track of what you have? Use `list_transcripts` to see the history and verify the status of your current tasks.
Cline extracts insights from audio
Tell Cline to run `get_summary` or `get_chapters` on your latest interview. The agent handles the data import and creates the summary file for you. This workflow is fast because Cline executes every step without you needing to copy and paste.
Manage audio metadata in Cline
Use `get_speakers` and `get_sentiments` to enrich your raw transcripts. Cline maps these findings into your codebase automatically. When the task is done, you can call `delete_transcript` to keep your external storage clean. It’s a complete loop managed entirely by the agent.
