How do I connect this MCP to my LiveKit account?

You need your API Key, API Secret, and Host URL from your LiveKit Cloud or self-hosted project settings. Enter these into the Vinkius credential fields to connect.

Can I use this with a self-hosted LiveKit instance?

Yes. As long as you provide the correct Host URL and credentials for your self-hosted server, the MCP can interact with it.

What happens to a participant when I remove them?

When you remove a participant, they are disconnected from the room. On LiveKit Cloud, their access token is also revoked.

Can the AI send messages to everyone in a room?

Yes. You can use the data messaging capability to send payloads to all participants using either reliable or lossy delivery modes.

Which AI clients can use this MCP?

Any MCP-compatible client, such as Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, or VS Code, can use these capabilities.

Can I list all active rooms on my LiveKit server?

Yes! Use the list_ttvoice_rooms capability. It calls the LiveKit RoomService ListRooms endpoint and returns all currently open rooms with their participant count, metadata, and creation time.

How do I mute a participant's microphone?

First use list_ttvoice_participants to get the track SID for the participant's audio track. Then call mute_ttvoice_track with the room name, participant identity, track SID, and muted set to 'true'.

Does this work with self-hosted LiveKit servers?

Yes! Just provide your self-hosted server's URL (e.g., https://livekit.yourserver.com) as the Host URL, along with the API Key and Secret from your server's config.yaml.

Connect Livekit Real Time Rooms (Alternative) to your AI

Set it up once and it works in ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and any other client you love. It all runs safely in the background, so you can relax and focus on what really matters. Give your AI agents direct control over live audio and video sessions.

Waiting for input…

Works with modern AI clients that support MCP, including ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and more.

Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

Real work

What teams actually run

Conversational AI Agents

An agent joins a LiveKit room to hold a voice conversation with a user.

Automated Moderation

An AI monitors a live stream and mutes participants who violate rules.

Dynamic Game Channels

A game engine uses the AI to create voice channels based on player matchmaking.

Live Event Management

An operator uses an agent to broadcast real-time updates to all viewers in a room.

One connector, every AI

LiveKit works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put LiveKit to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.

One URL. Every client.

Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 10 capabilities arrive ready to run.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of LiveKit, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with LiveKit. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.
