Wire VMEG into Claude Code to translate media from your terminal workflow.

​
Manual setup

​
Prerequisites

​
Add the MCP server

Run in your system terminal (not inside the Claude Code REPL): 
claude mcp add --transport http vmeg https://www.vmeg.ai/api/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
For all projects, add user scope: 
claude mcp add --transport http -s user vmeg https://www.vmeg.ai/api/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
Alternative: edit ~/.claude.json or project .mcp.json: 
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "vmeg": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://www.vmeg.ai/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}
Replace YOUR_API_KEY with a key from API Configuration. Restart Claude Code after editing.

​
Verify

claude mcp list
Or inside Claude Code, run /mcp — vmeg should appear as connected.

​
Usage

Translate /path/to/demo.mp4 to French with VMEG.
Claude Code uploads the file via POST /api/mcp/material/upload, creates a translation task, and polls until complete.
