How to Use the Transloadit MCP in Cline

Q: How do I get a list of all available templates with Transloadit and Cline?

Run listtemplates. This method pulls every saved JSON template name and configuration, giving you a full inventory of your processing capabilities.

Q: If I need to re-run an older job using Transloadit and Cline, what command do I use?

You execute replayassembly. This function takes the ID of a completed assembly and runs it again. It's useful for quality assurance or if you suspect the original run was faulty.

Q: Can Cline help me manage Transloadit assemblies and templates?

Absolutely. You can use both listassemblies to see recent runs, and gettemplatedetails to inspect the configuration of any saved template you've built.

Q: What is the process for managing Transloadit assemblies with Cline?

You start by running createassembly with your steps JSON. If that assembly needs adjusting, you can always use cancelassembly to stop it before re-running.

Build and Run File Processing Pipelines

You run `create_assembly` to build a complete pipeline using a steps JSON. This lets Cline automate complex media tasks—like encoding, resizing, or cloud movement—from within your terminal environment. If the job fails or you need it updated, you can use `cancel_assembly`. Remember, that action is final; once cancelled, the process stops.

Manage Reusable Transloadit Templates

Need to package up a workflow? Use `create_processing_template` for this. You provide the name and the steps JSON, creating a reusable blueprint. This means you can execute complex logic without rewriting code. When you're done with a template that’s just cluttering things, run `delete_template`. It permanently removes the configuration.

Check Status and Billing Records

You use `get_assembly_details` to check if a specific job finished successfully. You can also list all saved configurations using `list_templates` or see what's running with `list_assemblies`. It keeps you in the loop. For finance, just run `get_billing_usage` and pass the YYYY-MM month to check your file processing costs.
