Bring Video Automation
to Cursor
Learn how to connect RenderMe to Cursor and start using 12 AI agent tools in minutes. Fully managed, enterprise secure, and ready to use without writing a single line of code.
What is the RenderMe MCP Server?
Connect your RenderMe (re.video) account to any AI agent and take full control of your automated video production and media orchestration through natural conversation. RenderMe provides a powerful API for rendering professional videos from motion templates, allowing you to trigger render jobs, manage deployments, and track media assets directly from your chat interface.
What you can do
- Automated Video Rendering — Trigger video generation jobs using deployment IDs and dynamic variables (text, images, colors) programmatically.
- Job Lifecycle Management — Monitor the status of your rendering requests and retrieve final result URLs directly from the AI interface.
- Template & Deployment Control — List all available video templates and access detailed technical metadata to ensure your visual content is always on-brand.
- Asset & Folder Oversight — Manage your video projects, uploaded media, and organizational folders via natural language.
- Operational Monitoring — Track account statistics and monitor system health using simple AI commands.
How it works
1. Subscribe to this server
2. Enter your RenderMe (re.video) API Key from your dashboard settings
3. Start generating video content from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
No more manual editing or complex media processing. Your AI acts as a dedicated video producer or technical media coordinator.
Who is this for?
- Social Media Managers — quickly generate branded video snippets and monitor production queues without switching apps.
- Marketing Teams — automate the creation of personalized video assets for email campaigns or social ads.
- Operations Teams — streamline the management of cloud assets and monitor organizational media health directly within the chat.

Why Cursor?
Cursor's Agent mode turns RenderMe into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from RenderMe and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 12 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.
- —
Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context
- —
Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP. no copy-pasting from external dashboards
- —
MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment
- —
VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools

Every tool call from Cursor to the RenderMe MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
Can my AI automatically find my RenderMe templates?
Yes! Use the list_deployments tool. Your agent will respond with complete metadata for all your video templates, including their IDs and technical specifications in seconds.
How do I find my RenderMe (re.video) API Key?
Log in to your RenderMe account at app.re.video, navigate to the Settings or API section, and you will find your unique secret token there.
What is Agent mode and why does it matter for MCP?
Agent mode is Cursor's autonomous execution mode where the AI can perform multi-step tasks: reading files, editing code, running terminal commands, and calling MCP tools. Without Agent mode, Cursor operates in a simpler ask-and-answer mode that doesn't support tool calling. Always ensure you're in Agent mode when working with MCP servers.
Where does Cursor store MCP configuration?
Cursor looks for MCP server configurations in a mcp.json file. You can configure servers at the project level (.cursor/mcp.json in your project root) or globally (~/.cursor/mcp.json). Project-level configs take precedence.
Can Cursor use MCP tools in inline edits?
No. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode through the chat panel. Inline completions and Tab suggestions do not trigger MCP tool calls. This is by design. tool calls require user visibility and approval.
How do I verify MCP tools are loaded?
Open Settings → Features → MCP and look for your server name. A green indicator means the server is connected. You can also check Agent mode's available tools by clicking the tools dropdown in the chat panel.
Tools not appearing in Cursor
Ensure you are in Agent mode (not Ask mode). MCP tools only work in Agent mode.
