Connecting an AI agent
Clip Cabinet speaks MCP (Model Context Protocol), so an AI agent can search and read your whole clip library on your behalf. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Claude Desktop, and any MCP-aware client.
Connect
- Mint a token at /settings/tokens.
- Paste the Clip Cabinet MCP config into your client and add the token.
- Your agent can now work with your clips.
The config snippet and full setup steps are on the MCP reference at /docs/mcp.
What your agent can do
Once connected, the agent gets these tools:
- list_recordings: your recent clips, newest first.
- search_recordings: find clips across your library by meaning, not just keywords.
- get_recording: full detail for one clip.
- search_within_recording: find a moment inside a clip.
- get_frame: a captioned frame image.
- get_audio_clip: a slice of a clip's audio.
- list_artifacts: the URLs, errors, and code pulled from your clips.
Security
The agent authenticates with a bearer token. Tokens are hashed at rest and you can revoke any of them at /settings/tokens. See API tokens.
