Yuumeh MCP server: the full reference
Yuumeh exposes its whole studio as a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. An agent connected to it can do everything a person can do on the canvas: plan a production, quote it, generate pictures, video, voices and music, and cut the result into one film.

How an agent is expected to work
- Call
guidefirst. It returns how Yuumeh works, the craft rules for prompts, and every model with its sizes, lengths and inputs. - Read before writing:
list_canvases, thenget_canvas. - Build draft cards with
create_card(a prompt, settings and inputs). Drafts cost nothing. - Call
quote, show the person the price, and callgenerateonly when they agree or have asked for it. - Work one step at a time: make one thing, wait for the result and the person's verdict, then the next.
- Set unwanted cards aside with
scrap_cardsinstead of deleting them.
Every tool acts as the account that made the connection, with that account's permissions. Errors come back as tool errors with a stable code and a plain explanation. generate takes a request id, so a retry never makes a second take.

Connecting
Claude and Grok
Get a link from the Connectors window in Yuumeh and paste it into the app's custom connector settings. Step by step: Claude, Grok.
Claude Code, the Agent SDK and other MCP clients
The Connectors window has a developer option that gives you the server address and a token. Add it as an HTTP MCP server with the token as a bearer authorisation header. The window shows the exact command for Claude Code and the configuration for the Agent SDK.
Models behind the tools
Video: Seedance 2.0, Seedance 2.5, Kling 4.0 Flash, Kling O3, MiniMax H3, Vidu Q4, Wan 3.0 Video Prime. Pictures: Seedream 5.0 Flash, Seedream 5.0 Pro, Qwen Image 3, GPT Image 2.6, GPT Image 2.6 Economy, GPT Image 2.5, Nano Banana 2.1. Voices, music and sound effects come from ElevenLabs models. Prices are on the models page and are the same through MCP as on the canvas.
Questions
- Is there an MCP server for AI video generation?
- Yes, several. Yuumeh's covers a whole production rather than single clips: 58 tools for planning, quoting, generating pictures, video, voices and music on 7 video models, and editing the clips into a finished reel.
- Does the agent need an API key?
- Claude and Grok use a personal link from Yuumeh's Connectors window. Other MCP clients use a bearer token from the same window. Both are shown once and can be revoked.
- Can an agent run up a bill by itself?
- Only
generatespends credits on models, and only from the account's own credits (plus its auto top-up, if the owner has switched that on). The server's instructions tell agents to quote first and to generate only when the person agrees. - Is there a separate API?
- The MCP server is the programmatic way into Yuumeh today. It works with any client that speaks MCP over HTTP.
