Bring Media Encoding
to Claude Code
Create your Vinkius account to connect Transloadit to Claude Code and start using all 10 AI tools in minutes. Fully managed, enterprise secure, and ready to use without writing a single line of code. No hosting, no server setup — just connect and start using.
Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the Transloadit MCP Server?
Transform your AI agent into a full-scale media orchestration engine by connecting it to your Transloadit application. Eliminate complicated dashboards and rely entirely upon conversational instructions to launch, monitor, or abort heavy "Assemblies" (media jobs), track operational bills, and register scalable JSON templates without manual interactions.
What you can do
- Assembly Execution — Feed a JSON steps configuration directly into your agent to prompt complex file encodings, resizing jobs, or transmutations natively
- Live Monitoring — Interrogate the agent to retrieve exact results, completion statuses, or outputs parameters for any active or past processing task (Assembly)
- Template Management — Build reusable encoding architectures (Templates) through chat instructions, list available pipelines, or delete deprecated presets
- Error Recovery — Immediately command the AI to cancel heavily hung/unnecessary processing batches or instruct a strict "job replay" to re-attempt a failed cycle
- Resource Tracking — Access your precise billing usage and operational costs per specific month natively without hunting reports on the dashboard
How it works
- Attach this specialized component to your current AI runtime
- Provide both your distinct Transloadit Auth Key and Secret
- Start communicating to orchestrate large media transcoding instructions natively
Who is this for?
- Media Developers — Construct JSON encoding pipelines dynamically using natural language and inject them efficiently to their environment
- Content Engineers — Track progress metrics or selectively replay media items that corrupted during manual upload procedures
- Technical Leaders — Verify the overall usage of external media APIs auditing operational expenses explicitly by requested month

Why Claude Code?
Claude Code registers Transloadit as an MCP server in a single terminal command. Once connected, Claude Code discovers all 10 tools at runtime and can call them headlessly. ideal for CI/CD pipelines, cron jobs, and automated workflows where Transloadit data drives decisions without human intervention.
- —
Single-command setup:
claude mcp addregisters the server instantly. no config files to edit or applications to restart - —
Terminal-native workflow means MCP tools integrate seamlessly into shell scripts, CI/CD pipelines, and automated DevOps tasks
- —
Claude Code runs headlessly, enabling unattended batch processing using Transloadit tools in cron jobs or deployment scripts
- —
Built by the same team that created the MCP protocol, ensuring first-class compatibility and the fastest adoption of new protocol features

Frequently asked questions
Where do I find my Auth Key and Auth Secret credentials?
Navigate directly directly to the Transloadit web frontend. Open your Account settings. On the sidebar, click on Credentials. You will spot your public Auth Key directly exposed, and right next to it the option to reveal your Auth Secret. Both strings are required parameters here.
Does `cancel_assembly` action cost money if triggered early?
Yes, absolutely. Halting an assembly stops Transloadit servers from expending gigabytes processing irrelevant files immediately. Consequently, acting rapidly prevents unnecessary overuse charges and quotas from draining. Use it when observing logical JSON mistakes.
Do I need Signature Authentication for Transloadit?
Yes. For production environments, it is strongly recommended to use Signature Authentication to prevent unauthorized use. Your Transloadit MCP integration handles this internally using the provided Auth Secret to sign requests securely.
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.
