Headless Automation via Claude Code

Your CI/CD pipelines can now interact directly with physical displays using `get_screen_status` and `check_fusion_status`. When a major deployment finishes, Claude Code queries the network to ensure all screens are online. You manage digital signage exactly like you manage cloud servers. If a screen drops offline, the agent triggers an alert and attempts to reset the display using `update_screen`. This MCP Server runs entirely in the background without needing a browser window. Your operations team stays in the terminal where they belong.

Programmatic Playlist Management

Asset pipelines execute `create_playlist` and `list_media` automatically during content syncs. You push new videos to your repository, and a GitHub Action triggers the terminal agent to update the displays. The physical screens reflect your latest commits instantly. Cleaning up old assets is handled by `delete_media` and `delete_playlist` via cron jobs. You write a simple shell script, and the agent purges expired campaigns every night at midnight. Storage management becomes a completely hands-off process.

Infrastructure-as-Code for Scheduling

You define your display timelines in JSON and push them using `create_schedule` and `list_schedules`. The agent reads your configuration files and translates them into live API commands. Marketing campaigns roll out with the same rigor as database migrations. For targeted updates, the system pulls `list_groups` and targets specific locations. It pushes the new content via `assign_playlist` to exactly the right cohort. You control a massive physical network using standard command-line workflows.

Common questions about FusionSignage MCP in Claude Code

Run `claude mcp add --transport http fusionsignage -- ` in your terminal. Make sure to put all connection flags before the server name. Verify the installation by running `claude mcp list`.

Yes, the headless nature makes it perfect for automated workflows. You can trigger playlist updates from GitHub Actions or Jenkins whenever new content gets merged.

It pings the hardware status before attempting any changes. If the target is unreachable, it logs a standard error to `stderr` so your monitoring tools can catch it.

You can pipe a list of group IDs into the agent and have it loop through the scheduling commands. It executes the API calls sequentially based on your script logic.

The integration only processes schedule configurations, playlist metadata, and hardware connectivity states. Your actual media payloads and internal network routing are never exposed. Vinkius enforces zero-trust authentication for every single request.
