Perplexity

Script your media audits

Devops teams need fast ways to check asset health. Run a quick terminal command to have the agent execute `list_cincopa_assets` and pipe the output into a local CSV file. You can set this up as a nightly cron job. The CLI tool calls `get_asset_metadata` on every video, checking for encoding failures or missing thumbnails, and alerts your Slack channel if something breaks.

Deploy galleries via Cincopa MCP Server

Stop manually creating media containers for new environments. Your GitHub Actions can trigger Claude Code to run `create_new_gallery` during the staging deployment phase. The script grabs the required layout ID using `list_cincopa_templates` and provisions the exact gallery structure your new frontend build expects. Everything happens headlessly via standard HTTP transports.

Handle massive asset migrations

Moving thousands of videos requires reliable automation. The terminal agent requests secure endpoints via `get_media_upload_url` and feeds them to your local bash scripts for processing. If a batch job fails, you can instruct the CLI to clean up the mess. It identifies the broken uploads and runs `delete_media_asset` in a loop until the workspace is clear.

Common questions about Cincopa MCP in Claude Code

Run claude mcp add --transport http cincopa-mcp -- . Make sure you place the transport flag before the server name. Check your ~/.claude.json file if you need to debug the connection.

Yes. Just ask the CLI to show your collections. It fetches the data and prints a formatted list directly to your standard output, which you can easily grep or pipe to another command.

The headless nature of this integration makes it perfect for containerized environments. Pass your Vinkius auth token as an environment variable and the CLI will handle the rest.

Provide the asset ID in your prompt. The terminal agent queries the metadata endpoint and returns the exact video dimensions, file size, and current hosting status in plain text.

The integration operates over a secure, stateless connection. We process your API keys, template IDs, and media URLs inside isolated execution environments. No persistent storage is ever attached to these terminal sessions.
