FAQ from Placid.app MCP Server

How do I get a Placid API token?

Log in to your Placid.app account, go to Settings > API, click "Create API Token", name it (e.g., "MCP Server"), and copy the generated token.

What are the system requirements?

Node.js version 18 or higher and npm are required.

How do I install and configure the server?

The quickest method is via Smithery. For manual setup, add the server configuration to your Claude Desktop or Cline settings with the command npx, arguments ["@felores/placid-mcp-server"], and the PLACID_API_TOKEN environment variable.

What happens if video generation takes longer than 60 seconds?

For longer videos (>60 seconds processing time), the response returns a job_id so you can check the status in your Placid dashboard.

Where is data stored and how is authentication handled?

The server communicates with Placid.app's API; only the API token is stored locally in your environment configuration. No other data is persisted client‑side.
