Integrations
Calling Sume from automation platforms, serverless functions, agent frameworks, and MCP clients. Each uses plain HTTPS or remote MCP, not a connector.
n8n Loop Over Items: batch paid API calls under a rate limit
n8n's Loop Over Items node sends items through in batches of Batch Size, then emits all results on done. Pair it with Wait to pace a paid API.
Make.com error handling: retry a paid API call without duplicates
Make.com has five error handlers; Retry stores the failed bundle and reruns it. Send a fixed Idempotency-Key so a rerun can't bill twice.

Workato HTTP connector: call an API with a key and JSON
Workato's HTTP connector calls any HTTP API: a Header auth connection holds the key, and Send request via HTTP POSTs a JSON body and maps the reply.
Salesforce Apex HTTP callout: POST JSON to an external API
An Apex HTTP callout builds an HttpRequest, sends it with Http.send and reads the HttpResponse. From a trigger or after DML, it must run asynchronously.
Tenacity retry in Python: safe settings for a paid API POST
Bare @retry in tenacity retries forever with no wait. For a paid POST, cap attempts, add jittered backoff, retry only transient errors, and reuse one key.

If an n8n agent says it couldn't run your sub-workflow, publish it: the tool returns 'Workflow is not active' outside the test panel. More checks inside.
Can Notion send webhooks? Start an AI video job from a page
Yes: Notion's Send webhook action posts page properties to your URL, and integration webhooks report changes. Call Sume from your own endpoint.
ChatGPT plugins vs MCP server: where does Sume fit?
A plugin is a package that can carry an MCP server. Sume is the server. Here is how the two relate in ChatGPT and Codex, and what a Sume connection still needs.
Claude Code --callback-port: do you need it for Sume MCP?
No. --callback-port is for servers that need a pre-registered redirect URI. Sume registers clients dynamically, so Claude Code's default random port works.
Claude Code headersHelper: read the Sume API key at connect
Claude Code's headersHelper runs a command at connect time and merges its JSON into the request headers. Use it to send a Sume API key from a secret store.
Claude Code /mcp reconnect all: what it does for a Sume MCP server
Claude Code v2.1.284 added /mcp reconnect all. Because Sume's hosted MCP server keeps no session, a reconnect needs no state recovery; job ids carry the work.
Claude Code MCP tool timeout: what to set for slow jobs
Claude Code lets you set a per-server timeout in ms. Sume's jobs_wait returns within 55 seconds, so a slow video job needs no long timeout.
Claude Code plugin .mcp.json: bundle a Sume MCP server
Put Sume's hosted MCP server in a Claude Code plugin's .mcp.json, prompt each teammate for their own API key, and install it from a team marketplace.
claude mcp login over SSH: sign in to Sume with no browser
On a machine with no browser, claude mcp login prints the sign-in URL. Open it on your laptop, then paste the redirect URL back. Sume's MCP works this way.
claude mcp logout: how to sign out of a remote MCP server
Run claude mcp logout <name> or pick Clear authentication in /mcp to remove stored credentials. What that does for Sume's hosted MCP, and the hourly token.
Claude Sonnet 5.5 MCP tools in Claude Code: add Sume video/image tools
Claude Code v2.1.284 made Sonnet 5.5 the default Sonnet. Add Sume's hosted MCP server in two commands and give that model video and image generation tools.
Codex bearer_token_env_var: connect Sume MCP with an API key, no OAuth
Set url and bearer_token_env_var in Codex's config.toml so a Sume API key from the environment authenticates hosted MCP, with enabled_tools to shorten the list.
Codex MCP OAuth client registration: CIMD or DCR for Sume
Codex registers with Sume's hosted MCP server by Dynamic Client Registration, because Sume's metadata advertises no Client ID Metadata Document support.
Codex mcp-server command removed: does Sume still work?
Codex removed `codex mcp-server` on 2026-09-05. Connecting Codex to Sume's hosted MCP server uses `codex mcp`, which the changelog says continues.
CrewAI ToolFailure: report a paid API error
Return a ToolFailure from a CrewAI tool when Sume refuses a job, so the run records a failure instead of a success, and set the policy to raise.
Cursor mcp.json to Claude Code: why a url entry fails
A url entry copied from Cursor's mcp.json fails in Claude Code until it has type http. Here is the claude mcp add-json command for Sume's hosted MCP server.
Cursor MCP OAuth redirect URL: which one to allow
Cursor uses fixed OAuth redirect URLs for MCP servers, one for web and Cursor Agents and one for the desktop app. Here is what each is and how Sume treats them.
Cursor team MCP servers: share Sume's hosted MCP across a team
Cursor's docs describe project, global and team MCP servers. Where Sume's hosted MCP fits in each, how sign-in works per person, and what a shared key changes.
GPT-6 Sol and Luna in Codex: keep your Sume MCP server across models
Codex added GPT-6 Sol and Luna to its model picker in late September. Your Sume MCP server is configured per Codex, not per model, so switching needs no change.
Grok Build: add Sume's hosted MCP server with grok mcp add
Grok Build takes remote MCP servers via grok mcp add --transport http. Add mcp.sume.com, pass an API key header or use OAuth, and check with grok mcp doctor.
Kling motion control MCP: the kling-motion-control_create tool
Sume's hosted MCP has a paid kling-motion-control_create tool: one still plus a driving video up to 30 seconds. Its payload, billing, and when not to use it.
LangChain MCPAdapter: gate paid MCP tools
LangChain's MCPAdapter example gates tools on destructive_hint, but Sume's paid tools report false. Gate on read_only_hint instead, per the snapshot.
LangGraph interrupt before a paid API call
Put LangGraph's interrupt() in its own node ahead of the node that calls a paid video API, because a resume re-runs the whole node from its top.
MCP config API key: use an environment variable, not the file
Cursor, Claude Code, Windsurf and Codex can read an MCP API key from an environment variable. Here is each client's syntax and what an unset variable does.
MCP OAuth rejects a callback with no iss: what to do
Gemini CLI and Codex validate the RFC 9207 iss parameter on the OAuth callback. Which clients reject a missing iss, and what a server without iss can rely on.

Meta's Ads CLI makes a video ad from a local file with meta ads creative create --video. Download the Sume clip first, then upload; ads start paused.
Meta ads MCP server in Claude Code: the add command
Meta's docs add its ads MCP server to Claude Code with one claude mcp add line. The same session can also add Sume's hosted MCP to make the video.
Do I need a Meta developer app for the ads MCP server?
Not always: Meta says owning an app is not a prerequisite. With your own app you choose OAuth or a user access token with seven listed permissions.
Meta ads MCP server rules: cap what an AI agent can do
Meta's ads MCP rules deny an agent action on one ad account or catalog, such as budget increases above 20%. What the rule fields are and where Sume adds a cap.
