Headless video generation from the terminal
Claude Code lets you script video production without opening a browser. Pipe your markdown scripts directly into the CLI and let the agent call `generate_draft` to spin up new projects. You can chain terminal commands to check progress. The agent calls `get_job_status` and outputs the final video URL from `get_video` directly to your standard output.
CLI-driven workspace management with Claude Code
Keep your Colossyan workspace clean using simple terminal commands. Claude Code queries your active assets with `list_actors` and lists your voice options using `list_voices`. If you need to purge old assets, the agent executes `delete_video` or `delete_job` directly from your shell. It makes bulk cleanup fast and scriptable.
CI/CD video rendering pipelines via Colossyan MCP Server
Integrate video production into your deployment scripts. Claude Code can run headless in your build pipeline, calling `generate_from_template` whenever your product documentation updates. The agent can also programmatically create new presenters. It runs `create_actor` using asset URLs generated during your automated build process.
