vidgrid-mcp
MCP server that gives an AI assistant eyes for video. It wraps the vidgrid render API: hand it a local video file and it returns the numbered frame grid as image blocks (the model literally sees the video) plus the transcript.
Install & run
uvx vidgrid-mcp # zero-install (recommended)
# or: pip install vidgrid-mcp
export VIDGRID_API_KEY=vg_live_... # get one at https://vidgrid.site/api
vidgrid-mcp
Add to Claude Code
claude mcp add vidgrid -e VIDGRID_API_KEY=vg_live_... -- uvx vidgrid-mcp
Tools
render_video(file_path, grid?, transcribe?)— upload a local video file (mp4/mov/webm, ≤5 min, ≤200 MB); returns the grid PNG(s) + transcript. Costs 1 credit; failed renders aren't charged. Does not fetch URLs — download a link to a file first.check_balance()— remaining render credits for the configured key.
Env: VIDGRID_API_KEY (required), VIDGRID_API_BASE (default
https://api.vidgrid.site).
