Retrieve Detailed Video Metadata

Need to know the specs of a particular clip? Call `get_video` with the ID. Because this uses our MCP Server, your agent receives validated data—no garbage fields or unexpected types. If you want a full inventory list, running `list_my_videos` gives you every video associated with the user, and all results conform to defined schemas.

Search and Filter Content

The agent uses `search_videos` to find content by keyword. The benefit here is that even if the search API changes slightly, Pydantic validates the output structure before your code sees it. You can also narrow down scope using `list_user_albums`, which pulls curated showcases and ensures those listings follow a predictable data model.

Modify and Remove Media Assets

To change details, use `update_video`. You pass the video ID and the new metadata fields; Pydantic ensures that only expected types are processed. This prevents silent failures. If a piece of content needs to go, calling `delete_video` removes it cleanly. The agent handles the whole workflow with type safety at every step.

Setup guide

Set up Vimeo Alternative MCP in Pydantic AI

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
pydantic-ai-slim[fastmcp] package
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install Pydantic AI with FastMCP
Run pip install "pydantic-ai-slim[fastmcp]". The FastMCP toolset replaces the deprecated MCPServerHTTP class with full protocol support.

Pass a JSON-style config dict to FastMCPToolset with your Vinkius URL. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. Supports Streamable HTTP, SSE, and Stdio transports.
3

Create and run your agent
Pass the toolset to Agent(toolsets=[toolset]) and call agent.run(). Swap openai:gpt-4o for any supported model — Anthropic, Google, Mistral, or Groq.
