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

  1. Open Settings → Connectors and click Add custom connector.
  2. Name it Klingobanana and paste this URL:
Connector URL
https://klingobanana.com/api/mcp
  1. Click Connect, sign in to Klingobanana and click Allow. No key to copy.
  2. 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:

Terminal
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):

.cursor/mcp.json
{
  "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.
