Quickstart: connect an AI client
Connect Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Lovable, or any MCP client to the Vidext Operator MCP server.
One URL serves every client:
https://app.vidext.com/api/mcp/operatorThere is no API key to create. The client's first request is refused with an OAuth challenge, and the client opens your browser to authorize. The same instructions, with a copy button, are in the app at Settings → MCP.
Before you start
- You need an admin or member role in the organization. Learners and people whose access request is still pending cannot connect.
- Your client must speak MCP protocol
2026-07-28over streamable HTTP with OAuth. Older clients are refused with JSON-RPC error-32022; update the client if you see it.
Add the server
claude mcp add --transport http vidext-operator https://app.vidext.com/api/mcp/operatorThen run /mcp in Claude Code to complete the browser authorization. A server listed as needing authentication is healthy; it has not been authorized yet.
Keep the server name vidext-operator. It is the name the server reports and the one the setup page uses.
Authorize
On first use, your browser opens Vidext's sign-in and a consent screen. If you are an admin or member in more than one organization, you choose one; with only one, it is picked for you. The connection stays bound to that organization, even if you later switch workspace in the app. To work in another organization, authorize again. See Authentication.
Verify it works
Ask your client:
List my Vidext modules.A list_modules call that returns your modules, or an empty list, means you are connected.
Add the docs server too
The public Docs MCP server needs no authorization and lets the same client answer questions about Vidext from these pages:
claude mcp add --transport http vidext-docs https://app.vidext.com/api/mcp/docsSee Docs MCP server.
