Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

You need

• Runs in the cloudNothing to install; it connects over the internet

What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 10, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

• upload_video

  Upload a video from a URL. Returns a video_id. Local file paths are not accepted; upload files outside the MCP server and pass a reachable video_url. The upload runs asynchronously — poll get_video until status is 'uploaded', then call index_video to enable search and analysis.

• list_videos

  List all videos in your account, or filter to a specific group by passing group_id. Shows upload status and which features have been indexed for each video. Each video's 'url' is a short-lived HTTPS presigned URL (expires within hours) — fetch immediately and do not store; call l

• get_video

  Get detailed information about a video including upload status, metadata (duration, resolution, fps), and per-feature indexing status. Use this to check if upload or indexing is complete. The 'url' field is a short-lived HTTPS presigned URL (expires within hours) — fetch immediat

• update_video

  Update a video's display name, title, description, or move it to a different group. At least one field must be provided. To remove a video from its group, pass group_id as null.

• delete_video

  Permanently delete a video and all its indexed data (transcript, captions, embeddings, etc.). This cannot be undone.

• create_group

  Create a new video group. Groups organize videos into collections. Returns the new group's ID and name.

• list_groups

  List all video groups. Use list_videos with a group_id to see videos in a specific group.

• delete_group

  Delete a video group. Videos in the group are not deleted — they are simply removed from the group.

• index_video

  Index a video for search, QA, or full analysis. Processes the video through a pipeline of AI features. Typically takes 3-7 minutes; longer for long videos or the 'full' pipeline. Times out after 10 minutes by default. Pipelines: - search_only: transcription + captions + embedding

• search_videos

  Find WHEN and WHERE something happens across your videos. Returns timestamped results ranked by relevance — use these timestamps as start/end in ask_video for focused analysis. This is the recommended first step for most questions. Instead of asking ask_video about the entire vid

• ask_video Looks like an instruction to the AI

  Ask a question about one or more videos with visual analysis. Most effective on focused time ranges — use start/end to specify the segment to analyze. BEFORE calling this tool, read the reka://docs/guide resource for recommended workflows. In most cases, you should first: - searc

• segment_video

  Detect objects in a video segment using text prompts. Describe what to look for and get per-frame detections with bounding boxes and confidence scores. Prompt tips: - Use broad, visual categories: 'animal', 'vehicle', 'person', 'text on screen' - Specific labels ('rabbit', 'Toyot

• get_transcript

  Get the spoken words in a video. Use this instead of ask_video when you need to read what was said — it returns the actual text, not a summary. Use start/end to narrow results for long videos. Requires the transcript feature to be indexed.

• get_captions

  Get AI-generated visual descriptions of what happens on screen. Use this to understand the visual content without watching — each caption describes a short segment with timestamps. Use start/end to narrow results. Requires the captions feature (qa_only or full pipeline).

• get_scenes

  Get detected scene boundaries with start/end timestamps. Use this to understand the video's structure, then pass scene timestamps as start/end to: - ask_video for per-scene contextual analysis - segment_video to detect specific objects per scene (scenes typically fit in segment_v

• get_feature_catalog

  List available video analysis features with their dependencies and descriptions. Use this to understand what features exist and what pipelines to use with index_video.

• summarize_video

  Start here. Get a compact overview of a video: metadata, which features are indexed, a transcript preview, and scene count. Use this to decide which tools to call next — then use segment_video to detect specific objects in time ranges of interest.
