Connect Popcorn to your AI agent

Popcorn lets your AI agent create videos for you. Connect it once, then ask Claude, Cursor, Tasklet, or another MCP-compatible agent to make a movie. Popcorn handles the work in the background.

Server URL:

https://api.popcorn.co/mcp

Transport: Streamable HTTP

Quick start

1. Describe the video

Give your agent a brief, a style, or a tiny spark of an idea.

2. Let Popcorn work

Your agent starts the movie and checks progress for you.

3. Get the movie

When it’s ready, your agent brings the finished video link back to chat.

Start here: copy this to your agent

In many agents, this prompt is all you need. Paste it in and the agent will guide the setup. If it supports OAuth, it should choose that first.

Please connect to the Popcorn MCP server.

MCP URL:
https://api.popcorn.co/mcp

If you support OAuth, use one-click connect.
If you do not support OAuth, ask me for a Popcorn security token and help me add it safely.

Once connected, tell me what I can do with Popcorn.

Two ways to connect

One-click connect (OAuth) Recommended. Paste the URL into your agent, sign in, approve. No keys to copy.

Security token Fallback for clients that need a bearer header. Generate a pk_live_… token in your profile.

Make your agent smarter with the Popcorn skill

Drop the Popcorn skill into Claude, Tasklet, or any agent that supports external skills. It teaches the agent how to use the Popcorn MCP tools, how to keep polling until a movie is done, and how to hand back both the video URL and a studio link.

Each guide is the shortest possible setup for that client.

What your agent gets

Once connected, your agent has four tools:

Tool	What it does
create_movie	Kicks off a new movie from a natural-language brief. Returns immediately with a movie id.
get_movie	Polls the status of a movie. When complete, returns the video URL.
send_movie_message	Sends a follow-up chat message to an existing movie — same as typing in the studio chat.
get_movie_messages	Reads the recent chat transcript so the agent can see Popp’s reply.

See the full Tools reference.

Try it

Open a new chat in your connected agent and try a prompt like:

Use Popcorn to make me a 10-second cinematic shot of a fox running through a misty forest at sunrise. When it’s done, send me the link.

Your agent will start the movie and poll until it’s ready. Movies typically take 2–10 minutes depending on length and complexity.
