Transloadit Media Processing

A solid integration for Transloadit's media processing API that handles the tedious parts of video encoding, image resizing, and document OCR. Sets up the MCP server connection or CLI properly, gives you working JSON templates for common tasks like HLS encoding and thumbnail generation, and chains multiple processing steps without you having to manage intermediate files. The step definitions are clean and the examples actually work. Most useful when you're building media pipelines and don't want to deal with FFmpeg complexity or spinning up your own processing infrastructure.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when you need to:

Encode video to HLS, MP4, WebM, or other formats
Generate thumbnails or animated GIFs from video
Resize, crop, watermark, or optimize images
Convert between image formats (JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, HEIF)
Extract or transcode audio (MP3, AAC, FLAC, WAV)
Concatenate video or audio clips
Add subtitles or overlay text on video
OCR documents (PDF, scanned images)
Run speech-to-text or text-to-speech
Apply AI-based content moderation or object detection
Build multi-step media pipelines that chain operations together

Setup

Option A: MCP Server (recommended for Copilot)

Add the Transloadit MCP server to your IDE config. This gives the agent direct access to Transloadit tools (create_template, create_assembly, list_assembly_notifications, etc.).

VS Code / GitHub Copilot (.vscode/mcp.json or user settings):
