Automate media pipelines with this team-wide MCP Server

Equip your entire development team with the ability to query media assets. By committing the configuration to your repo, any engineer using VS Code Copilot can instantly run `list_transcripts` to verify active jobs. This makes building internal tools or debugging media pipelines a collaborative effort. No more sharing API keys or web credentials across Slack.

Pull production assets directly into VS Code Copilot

When designing marketing automation scripts, use `get_magic_content` to pull real-time show notes and social posts. Your VS Code Copilot chat can immediately insert this data into your test suites or database seeders. It eliminates the friction of manual downloads. You get direct access to the generated text assets right where your code lives.

Manage your transcript life cycle from VS Code Copilot

Keep your testing environment clean by calling `delete_transcript` to remove test files after your integration tests run. You can coordinate your test suites to upload raw media via `create_new_transcript` and clean up afterward. You can also keep an eye on team resource usage by running `get_castmagic_account` to monitor upload limits across your shared plan.

Setup guide

Set up Castmagic MCP in VS Code Copilot

Prerequisites

VS Code 1.99 or later with GitHub Copilot extension
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Open MCP configuration

Open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) and run "MCP: Add Server". Select HTTP (Streamable) as the server type. VS Code will create .vscode/mcp.json in your workspace.
2

Add the Castmagic MCP

Paste the JSON snippet shown on the right into your .vscode/mcp.json. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your endpoint token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Switch to Agent mode

Open Copilot Chat (Cmd+Shift+I / Ctrl+Shift+I) and switch to Agent mode using the dropdown. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode — they do not appear in Edit or Ask modes.
4

Verify the connection

In the Copilot Chat input, type # to list available tools. You should see the Castmagic tools listed. Try asking: "List my recent Castmagic transactions" and Copilot will invoke them automatically.

.vscode/mcp.json

  "mcpServers": {
    "castmagic-mcp": {
      "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
