MCP server for Wan AI video generation
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for AI video generation using Wan through the AceDataCloud API.
Generate AI videos from text or images directly from Claude, VS Code, or any MCP-compatible client.
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
wan_generate_video | Generate AI video from a text prompt using Wan. |
wan_generate_video_from_image | Generate AI video using a reference image as the starting frame. |
wan_get_task | Query the status and result of a video generation task. |
wan_get_tasks_batch | Query multiple video generation tasks at once. |
wan_list_models | List all available Wan models for video generation. |
wan_list_resolutions | List all available resolution options. |
wan_list_actions | List all available Wan API actions and corresponding tools. |
AceDataCloud hosts a managed MCP server — no local installation required.
Endpoint: https://wan.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp
All requests require a Bearer token. Use the API token from Step 1.
Connect directly on Claude.ai with OAuth — no API token needed:
https://wan.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcpAdd to your config (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS):
{
"mcpServers": {
"wan": {
"type": "streamable-http",
"url": "https://wan.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN"
}
}
}
}
Add to your MCP config (.cursor/mcp.json or .windsurf/mcp.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"wan": {
"type": "streamable-http",
"url": "https://wan.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN"
}
}
}
}
Add to your VS Code MCP config (.vscode/mcp.json):
{
"servers": {
"wan": {
"type": "streamable-http",
"url": "https://wan.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN"
}
}
}
}
Or install the Ace Data Cloud MCP extension for VS Code, which registers the hosted MCP servers with one-click setup.
{
"mcpServers": {
"wan": {
"url": "https://wan.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN"
}
}
}
}
Claude Code supports MCP servers natively:
claude mcp add wan --transport http https://wan.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp \
-h "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN"
Or add to your project's .mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"wan": {
"type": "streamable-http",
"url": "https://wan.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN"
}
}
}
}
Add to Cline's MCP settings (.cline/mcp_settings.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"wan": {
"type": "streamable-http",
"url": "https://wan.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN"
}
}
}
}
Add to your MCP configuration:
{
"mcpServers": {
"wan": {
"type": "streamable-http",
"url": "https://wan.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN"
}
}
}
}
Add to Roo Code MCP settings:
{
"mcpServers": {
"wan": {
"type": "streamable-http",
"url": "https://wan.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN"
}
}
}
}
Add to .continue/config.yaml:
mcpServers:
- name: wan
type: streamable-http
url: https://wan.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp
headers:
Authorization: "Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN"
Add to Zed's settings (~/.config/zed/settings.json):
{
"language_models": {
"mcp_servers": {
"wan": {
"url": "https://wan.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN"
}
}
}
}
}
# Health check (no auth required)
curl https://wan.mcp.acedata.cloud/health
# MCP initialize
curl -X POST https://wan.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Accept: application/json" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN" \
-d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"initialize","params":{"protocolVersion":"2025-03-26","capabilities":{},"clientInfo":{"name":"test","version":"1.0"}}}'
If you prefer to run the server on your own machine:
# Install from PyPI
pip install mcp-wan
# or
uvx mcp-wan
# Set your API token
export ACEDATACLOUD_API_TOKEN="your_token_here"
# Run (stdio mode for Claude Desktop / local clients)
mcp-wan
# Run (HTTP mode for remote access)
mcp-wan --transport http --port 8000
{
"mcpServers": {
"wan": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["mcp-wan"],
"env": {
"ACEDATACLOUD_API_TOKEN": "your_token_here"
}
}
}
}
docker pull ghcr.io/acedatacloud/mcp-wan:latest
docker run -p 8000:8000 ghcr.io/acedatacloud/mcp-wan:latest
Clients connect with their own Bearer token — the server extracts the token from each request's Authorization header.

}Restart Claude Desktop completely for changes to take effect. Confirm the server appears connected in the client’s tool list, then try a read-only example from its documentation.
Claude Desktop setup referencemcp-wanpypiio.github.AceDataCloud/mcp-wan works with any MCP-compatible client. Copy the config snippet from the Configuration section above and add it to the file shown for your client, then restart the application.
