Claude Desktop Integration

Connect JsonCut with Claude Desktop to generate images and videos through natural conversations with Claude.

Prerequisites​

Configuration​

The Claude Desktop configuration file is located at:

macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

Add the JsonCut MCP server to your configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "jsoncut": {
      "url": "https://mcp.jsoncut.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "x-api-key": "your-api-key-here"
      }
    }
  }
}
warning

Replace your-api-key-here with your actual JsonCut API key from app.jsoncut.com → Settings → API Keys.

After saving, restart Claude Desktop completely.

Verification​

To verify the integration is working:

  1. Open a new conversation in Claude Desktop
  2. Ask: "Can you list the available JsonCut tools?"
  3. Claude should respond with a list of JsonCut capabilities
