Frequently asked questions
Can I filter my video list to see only videos that are ready to watch?
Yes! Use the list_videos tool and set the status parameter to 'ready'. You can also filter by type (vod or live) and search for specific names.
How do I create a new live streaming endpoint?
You can use the create_live_input tool. You can optionally provide metadata like a stream name and configure whether the stream should be automatically recorded.
Is it possible to update the metadata of an existing video?
Absolutely. Use the edit_video tool with the video's identifier. You can update the meta object, change allowedOrigins, or toggle requireSignedURLs.
How do I add an MCP server to Claude Code?
Run claude mcp add <name> --transport http "<url>" in your terminal. Claude Code registers the server and discovers all tools immediately.
Can Claude Code run MCP tools in headless mode?
Yes. Claude Code supports non-interactive execution, making it ideal for scripts, cron jobs, and CI/CD pipelines that need MCP tool access.
How do I list all connected MCP servers?
Run claude mcp in your terminal to see all registered servers and their status, or type /mcp inside an active Claude Code session.
