Guides
Plain-English playbooks for making and finishing media with the Livepeer Agent — in Claude Cowork, Code, or Cursor. You describe the outcome; the agent picks and runs the tools. Start with whichever matches your job.
Try it with no API key
Paste one URL into Claude or Codex and start generating images and video. No account, no key, no credit card — about $10 of demo credit at each model's real price, with every model and tool unlocked. Verify your email to raise the balance; add a key when you outgrow it.
Connect Livepeer Agent to your AI client (MCP)
Five-minute setup: paste one endpoint into Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, or Codex and get the whole Livepeer creative network as callable tools. Includes the two footguns that cause silent auth failures.
Sign in with email — no API key
Connect once and log in with your email instead of pasting a key. After sign-in, every image and video you make runs on your own account. Step-by-step for Claude Desktop, Claude Code, and Codex, with what to check at each step.
What did I spend, and on what?
Read your own usage and cost report in plain English — what every line means, exactly how a render’s price is worked out (unit price × quantity, nothing else), and four ways to spend less.
Innovative playbooks — Wave 1–3 catalog
25 gated recipes for marketers and creators — product boards, kinetic type, restyle, silent demos, and more. Typical runs cost cents to low dollars, each with a live showcase you can remix.
From MeiGen prompts to Livepeer Agent playbooks
If you love MeiGen’s prompt gallery, here’s what Livepeer Agent adds: gated Wave 1 playbooks, finishing tools, video (i2v / t2v), and real showcases you can remix — not just a trending still.
Long video → social clips
Turn a 15-minute recording (talk, podcast, webinar, YouTube upload) into captioned, vertical, social-ready clips just by chatting. Find highlights, reframe, caption, clean up, export.
Video editing in Claude Cowork — the playbook
The full plain-English editing reference: reframe to any aspect, burn captions, cut fillers and dead air, add logos/lower-thirds, stitch, and auto-clip. No timeline, no menus.
Product shot → video
Turn one product photo into on-brand video, keeping the product identical across every scene. Covers locked logos/text, place-into-scenes, and the shot-to-video pipeline.
Train a LoRA (brand / character / product)
Teach the agent your product, character, or brand aesthetic so it stays consistent everywhere. What it is, whether it's worth it, what you need, and how to train one.
Exact fonts & logos
Lock pixel-perfect headlines, prices, legal copy, and brand marks onto generated visuals — text that never drifts, logos placed and never redrawn.
Keep characters & objects consistent
A chat how-to for holding a character's face or a product's identity steady across many shots and scenes.
Onboard a community capability (admin)
Bring a community orchestrator's self-verified capability onto the agent with one message in Claude Desktop — the admin MCP probes, classifies, and registers it. No VM edits, no JSON.
Discord onboarding bot — setup (Discord admin)
The ~8 minutes of Discord-portal clicks to stand up the /announce onboarding bot: create the app + bot, invite it, and hand off four values. For whoever owns the Discord server.
Discord onboarding bot — go-live (operator)
The operator's side after Discord config: env vars, deploy, register the command, flip the feature flag, and test the /announce loop. Includes the trust model and a one-flag rollback.
Register a capability — the admin runbook
Step by step, in verbs: nothing → agent-ready, for a provider model or a community orchestrator. Only step 1 differs by source. Includes the step people skip — registering an orchestrator does NOT make its capabilities reachable by name, and an audit found 8 of 9 silently running a different model.
Onboard a capability — the six stages (admin)
One process for adding a capability, whether it comes from a provider like fal or from a community orchestrator. Start with cap_status, which audits all six stages and names the next action for each gap. Includes which verb does what, and the failures each stage exists to prevent.
