Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Turn YouTube videos into short-form clips from any AI assistant

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Marketing & social media
  • You need to fill in: LUMICLIP_API_KEY

Install

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

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • You fill in yourself: LUMICLIP_API_KEY

Values marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lumiclip": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@lumiclip/mcp-server"
      ],
      "env": {
        "LUMICLIP_API_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add lumiclip --env LUMICLIP_API_KEY=your-value -- npx -y @lumiclip/mcp-server

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lumiclip": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@lumiclip/mcp-server"
      ],
      "env": {
        "LUMICLIP_API_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "lumiclip": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@lumiclip/mcp-server"
      ],
      "env": {
        "LUMICLIP_API_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

Values you fill in

  • LUMICLIP_API_KEY secret required env
    Your Lumiclip API key from app.lumiclip.ai/developers

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

Common questions

Is Lumiclip safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: LUMICLIP_API_KEY

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (3.0.0) reached the registry 6 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

In the same category: MCP YouTube Transcript, Google Analytics MCP, BibiGPT YouTube Video Summarizer

@lumiclip/mcp-server

Turn long videos into short clips — from Claude, Cursor, or any AI assistant that supports MCP.

Give it a YouTube link. It finds the best moments, reframes for vertical video (9:16), adds subtitles, and returns download-ready clips.

Quick Start

  1. Get an API key at app.lumiclip.ai/developers
  2. Run:
LUMICLIP_API_KEY=sk_live_... npx @lumiclip/mcp-server

Setup

Claude Desktop / Cursor

Add to your config file — claude_desktop_config.json for Claude, .cursor/mcp.json for Cursor:

{

"mcpServers": { "lumiclip": { "command": "npx", "args": ["@lumiclip/mcp-server"], "env": { "LUMICLIP_API_KEY": "sk_live_..." } } } }

Cursor Directory

Install in Cursor

Smithery
npx @smithery/cli mcp add lumiclip/lumiclip
Remote (Streamable HTTP)

For n8n, custom integrations, or any client that supports remote MCP:

  • Endpoint: https://mcp.lumiclip.ai/mcp
  • Auth: Authorization: Bearer sk_live_...
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP (POST)

Tools

ToolWhat it does
generate_clipsStart clip generation from a YouTube URL. Returns a project_id right away.
get_project_statusCheck progress and get clips when ready. Clips are sorted by score (best first).
list_projectsList your projects with status and clip counts.
get_clipGet full details for a single clip.
check_usageSee your plan, remaining credits, and usage.

How It Works

  1. Call generate_clips with a YouTube URL
  2. Get back a project_id immediately
  3. Poll get_project_status every 10–15 seconds (or pass a callback_url for webhook)
  4. When done, clips are sorted by score (best first), each with a download_url
Statuses

Project: pending → processing → completed (or completed_no_clips / failed)

Processing steps: queued → DOWNLOADING_VIDEO → EXTRACTING_AUDIO → TRANSCRIBING → DETECTING_HIGHLIGHTS → CUTTING_CLIPS → EXPORTING_CLIPS → done

Clips: pending → exporting → completed (or failed). The download_url is available when clip_status is completed.

Webhooks

Pass a callback_url when calling generate_clips to receive a POST when all clips are ready.

Completed:

{

"event": "project.completed", "project_id": "43dbe622-...", "status": "completed", "source_url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H51iLa1leOU", "clips": [ { "id": "32538b9c-...", "title": "One Dating Theory Leads to Chaos", "duration": 41.83, "score": 90, "download_url": "https://cdn.lumiclip.ai/exports/premium/.../clip-32538b9c-....mp4", "thumbnail_url": "https://cdn.lumiclip.ai/exports/premium/.../clip-32538b9c-...-thumb.jpg", "quality": "1080p" } ] }

Failed:

{

"event": "project.failed", "project_id": "43dbe622-...", "status": "failed", "error": "YouTube video is unavailable", "clips": [] }

Clips are sorted by score (highest first). We retry up to 3 times if your server doesn't respond.

Signature verification (optional): Each callback includes an X-Lumiclip-Signature header. Compute HMAC-SHA256 of the request body using SHA-256(your_api_key) as the signing key. Compare with the header value (sha256= ).

Using with n8n

Option A — Webhook (recommended):

  1. Create a workflow with a Webhook trigger node. Copy its URL.
  2. Add an HTTP Request node: POST https://api.lumiclip.ai/api/v1/clips/generate with Header Auth (Authorization: Bearer sk_live_...) and body:
   {

"url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=...", "callback_url": "https://your-n8n.com/webhook/abc123" }

3. When clips are ready, the Webhook node receives the payload.
  1. Best clip: {{ $json.clips[0].download_url }}

Option B — Polling loop:

  1. POST to generate clips (same as above, without callback_url).
  2. Wait 15 seconds → GET https://api.lumiclip.ai/api/v1/projects/{{ $json.project_id }} → IF status is not completed, loop back to Wait.
