Frequently asked questions
How can I see which templates are available in my Bannerbear project?
You can use the list_templates tool. It will return a list of all templates associated with your API key, including their names and unique UIDs.
Can I generate a video using this integration?
Yes! Use the create_video tool by providing a video template UID and the necessary input data for the frames. The AI will handle the request and return the video details.
How do I check if my image has finished rendering?
Use the get_image tool with the image UID. It will return the current status (e.g., 'completed') and the public URL of the image once it is ready.
How does Cline connect to MCP servers?
Cline reads MCP server configurations from its settings panel in VS Code. Add the server URL and Cline discovers all available tools on initialization.
Can Cline run MCP tools without approval?
