Integrations

Claude Code

pip install kinocut

claude mcp add kinocut -- uvx --from kinocut kino

kino doctor

Then use prompts from PROMPTS.md or $kinocut skill.

Cursor

Add MCP server config:

{

  "mcpServers": {

    "kinocut": {

      "command": "uvx",

      "args": ["--from", "kinocut", "kino"]

    }

  }

}

Restart Cursor; confirm tools appear; run search_tools for trim / receipt / workflow.

Generic MCP client (stdio)

Command: uvx

Args: --from kinocut kino

Transport: stdio

Registry id: io.github.KyaniteLabs/kinocut.

Python automation / CI

pip install kinocut

python -c "from kinocut import Client; print(Client().info('clip.mp4'))"

CI tips:

• Install FFmpeg in the job image
• Run kino doctor --json and assert required_ok
• Optional: python scripts/golden_path.py on a runner with FFmpeg

Hyperframes

Optional code-to-video path. Needs Node 22+ and Hyperframes CLI.

Post-process renders with Kinocut FFmpeg tools. See tool reference Hyperframes section in TOOLS.md.

FFmpeg

Required system dependency — not bundled. Kinocut wraps FFmpeg with validation and guardrails; it does not replace installing FFmpeg.

MCPB / Desktop

Staged package in mcpb/. Not a fully self-contained native bundle yet. MCPB.md.

Compatibility

Former mcp-video CLI/import/env still work during the compatibility window. RENAME.md.
