Generate images and videos from Claude
Connect Klingobanana to your AI assistant. Ask for images, storyboards and Kling, Veo or Seedance videos in plain words: it picks the model, writes the prompt, generates, and gives you the links. Everything lands in your Klingobanana gallery and uses your subscription credits.
claude.ai and Claude Desktop
- Open Settings → Connectors and click Add custom connector.
- Name it Klingobanana and paste this URL:
https://klingobanana.com/api/mcp- Click Connect, sign in to Klingobanana and click Allow. No key to copy.
- In a new chat, enable Klingobanana in the tools menu and ask for an image or a video.
Custom connectors are available on Claude's paid plans; on Team and Enterprise an admin may need to add it first.
Claude Code
Create a key in Account → API, then run:
claude mcp add --transport http klingobanana https://klingobanana.com/api/mcp \
--header "Authorization: Bearer kb_live_..."Check it with /mcp inside Claude Code. You can also skip the key: add the server without the header and Claude Code will open the Klingobanana sign-in page.
Cursor and other MCP clients
Add this to .cursor/mcp.json (or your client's MCP settings):
{
"mcpServers": {
"klingobanana": {
"url": "https://klingobanana.com/api/mcp",
"headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer kb_live_..." }
}
}
}Any client that supports remote MCP servers over Streamable HTTP works, with an API key or with OAuth sign-in.

Things to ask
- “Make 3 images of a woman in a red coat walking in Paris at night, 9:16. Then turn the best one into a 5-second video with a slow push-in.”
- “Write a 4-shot storyboard for a coffee ad, generate one image per shot, and tell me what the videos would cost before making them.”
- “Take my last image in Klingobanana and animate it with Kling 3.0 Pro: she turns to the camera and smiles.”
- “Which video model is the cheapest for a 10-second clip? Generate one with it.”
Your credits stay under control
- Each connection can spend at most 200 credits a day by default. Change it, or disconnect an app, in Account → API.
- Your assistant is told to announce the cost and ask before expensive generations.
- Failed generations are refunded automatically.
- The connection can't see your password, payment details or settings.
Questions
Do I need a subscription? Yes. The MCP uses the credits of your Klingobanana plan, like the studio. See plans.
Where do my creations go? Into your Klingobanana gallery, like anything made in the studio.
Can I use it from my own code? Yes, with the same models and credits: see the API documentation.
