Reelbird MCP server: setup for Claude Code and Cursor

Add the Reelbird MCP server to Claude Code, Codex or Cursor and let agents list screens, record, export and share.

reelbird mcp runs an MCP server over stdio. Agents get tools to list sources, start and stop recordings, list and inspect projects, edit (including crop), export, caption, enhance the voice, find silences, suggest chapters, and share or unshare.

Claude Code

claude mcp add reelbird -- /Applications/Reelbird.app/Contents/Helpers/reelbird mcp

Codex

codex mcp add reelbird -- /Applications/Reelbird.app/Contents/Helpers/reelbird mcp

or in ~/.codex/config.toml:

[mcp_servers.reelbird]
command = "/Applications/Reelbird.app/Contents/Helpers/reelbird"
args = ["mcp"]

Cursor (~/.cursor/mcp.json, or .cursor/mcp.json in a project)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "reelbird": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "/Applications/Reelbird.app/Contents/Helpers/reelbird",
      "args": ["mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Then ask: “Record a 20-second demo of the settings page you just changed and give me the share link.”

Recording through an agent needs Screen Recording permission for the app that runs the agent (your terminal or editor).
