How to Use the D-ID MCP in Claude Code

Q: How do I check my D-ID credit balance from the terminal with Claude Code?

Run Claude Code with an instruction to use the getcredits tool. It will connect to the D-ID MCP Server and print your current credit balance and plan details directly to your terminal's standard output.

Q: Is it possible to get a list of D-ID presenter IDs for a script using Claude Code?

Yes. Instruct Claude Code to use the listpresenters tool. It will return a structured list of all available presenters, which you can then parse and use in your shell scripts for further automation.

Q: How do I delete old talks to clean up my account?

Use the deletetalk tool. You'll need the ID of the talk you want to remove. You can write a script to first listtalks, filter for the ones you want to delete, and then pass their IDs to the delete tool.

Perplexity

Batch Create Videos from the CLI

This server is built for headless automation. You can write a shell script to read a list of prompts from a file and pipe them to Claude Code, instructing it to call `create_talk` for each one. There's no UI to click through. It's perfect for bulk content generation. Set up a job to turn a hundred product descriptions into short videos overnight. Claude Code executes the commands and logs the resulting talk IDs for you to track later.

Monitor Credits and Job Status

Use this MCP Server for system monitoring and alerting. Set up a cron job that runs a simple script: call `get_credits` and, if the balance is below a threshold, send a notification. You'll know you need to refill before a production job fails. Likewise, you can build a poller script. Have it loop through a list of pending talk IDs, call `get_talk` on each, and when the status is 'done', use `wget` or `curl` to download the final video file automatically.

Your Claude Code MCP Server Tools

Manage your D-ID assets as part of your deployment or backend processes. Use `upload_image` in a script to add a new company avatar to D-ID, then use `create_talk_audio` to generate a new announcement video, all from the command line. This MCP Server acts as your scriptable backend for D-ID. Before kicking off a large render job in a GitHub Action, you can use `list_presenters` to confirm the required assets are available. It adds a layer of validation to your automated workflows.
