MCP Veo

MCP Veo

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for AI video generation using Veo through the AceDataCloud API.

Generate AI videos from text prompts or images directly from Claude, VS Code, or any MCP-compatible client.

Features

• Text to Video - Create AI-generated videos from text descriptions
• Image to Video - Animate images or create transitions between images
• Multi-Image Fusion - Blend elements from multiple images
• 1080p Upscaling - Get high-resolution versions of generated videos
• Task Tracking - Monitor generation progress and retrieve results
• Multiple Models - Choose between quality and speed with various Veo models

Quick Start

1. Get Your API Token

1. Sign up at AceDataCloud Platform
2. Go to the API documentation page
3. Click "Acquire" to get your API token
4. Copy the token for use below

2. Use the Hosted Server (Recommended)

AceDataCloud hosts a managed MCP server — no local installation required.

Endpoint: https://veo.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp

All requests require a Bearer token. Use the API token from Step 1.

Claude.ai

Connect directly on Claude.ai with OAuth — no API token needed:

1. Go to Claude.ai Settings → Integrations → Add More
2. Enter the server URL: https://veo.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp
3. Complete the OAuth login flow
4. Start using the tools in your conversation

cURL Test

# Health check (no auth required)
curl https://veo.mcp.acedata.cloud/health

# MCP initialize
curl -X POST https://veo.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Accept: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"initialize","params":{"protocolVersion":"2025-03-26","capabilities":{},"clientInfo":{"name":"test","version":"1.0"}}}'

3. Or Run Locally (Alternative)

If you prefer to run the server on your own machine:

# Install from PyPI
pip install mcp-veo
# or
uvx mcp-veo

# Set your API token
export ACEDATACLOUD_API_TOKEN="your_token_here"

# Run (stdio mode for Claude Desktop / local clients)
mcp-veo

# Run (HTTP mode for remote access)
mcp-veo --transport http --port 8000

Claude Desktop (Local)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "veo": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["mcp-veo"],
      "env": {
        "ACEDATACLOUD_API_TOKEN": "your_token_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Docker (Self-Hosting)

docker pull ghcr.io/acedatacloud/mcp-veo:latest
docker run -p 8000:8000 ghcr.io/acedatacloud/mcp-veo:latest

Clients connect with their own Bearer token — the server extracts the token from each request's Authorization header.
