SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Setting up a connection between an AI Agent host and the ArcReel video production platform requires manually configuring MCP endpoints, API keys, and workspace settings, which is error-prone and easy to misconfigure.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • MCP Connection Setup: Registers a streamable HTTP MCP service named arcreel in the host with the API key persisted as a Bearer credential.
  • Configuration Reconciliation: Compares the host MCP config with the workspace .arcreel/settings.json, reuses matching values, and asks the user to resolve any conflicts.
  • Connection Verification: Calls list_projects with no arguments to confirm the host and workspace point to the same ArcReel instance.
  • Use Case: A creator self-hosting ArcReel wants their AI assistant to manage video projects; this Skill configures the endpoint, validates the arc- prefixed API key, and confirms access in one guided flow.

Quick Start

Use the setup-arcreel-skills skill to connect my current Agent to my ArcReel service and verify access.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I connect my AI Agent to ArcReel?▼

Run this Skill to register an MCP service named arcreel in your Agent host using a streamable HTTP transport. Provide your MCP endpoint ending in /mcp and an API key starting with arc-, and the Skill persists them and verifies access.

What MCP endpoint and API key format does ArcReel require?▼

The endpoint must use HTTPS and end with /mcp, though loopback addresses may use HTTP. The API key must begin with the arc- prefix and is stored as a Bearer credential for the streamable HTTP connection.

How is the ArcReel connection verified after setup?▼

The Skill loads the configuration and calls list_projects with no arguments. A structured projects list response confirms success, and an empty list is still valid as long as host and workspace configs point to the same instance.

What happens if my host MCP config and workspace settings differ?▼

The Skill compares the host MCP configuration with .arcreel/settings.json in the workspace. If values match it reuses them; if any value conflicts, it asks you to choose and then synchronizes both locations.

Where are ArcReel credentials stored on my workspace?▼

The Skill writes the mcp_url and api_key to .arcreel/settings.json following local workspace conventions. The host also persists the API key as a Bearer credential in its native MCP configuration, in plaintext.
