What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it.

## What do you want Grist and OpusClip to do together?

Give your AI client this address.

`https://mcp.apiant.ai`

One connection does both: ask your client to act in an app once, or have it build an automation that keeps running. Any client that takes a remote MCP server. Nothing to install. Create your free account, then sign in once in your browser.

### Set it up in your client

### Claude Code

Run this in the directory you want to work in.

`claude mcp add --transport http -s project apiant-ai https://mcp.apiant.ai`

Start Claude Code there, approve the server, and sign in in the browser page it opens.

### Any other MCP client

Paste the address where the client asks for a remote MCP server URL, and name the server apiant-ai where it lets you. APIANT's skills reach the client over the same connection.

Grist holds the table where your team tracks videos, and OpusClip does the cutting and captioning. Joining them means a row in Grist can send a video off to OpusClip, pull back the clips, transcripts or captioned file, and write what comes back onto the same row, so the status of every video lives in one table.

Questions

## Grist and OpusClip, answered

###

### Can something in OpusClip start one of these setups?

No. OpusClip is used for actions here, so every setup starts from Grist — a new row or an updated row in one of your tables. From there the agent can clip a video, fetch clips, pull a transcript or create a collection in OpusClip.

###

### How do the clip links get back into my Grist table?

After OpusClip finishes, the agent uses Get Clips to read the clips and their download links, then uses Update Record to write them onto the Grist row that started the run. The agent tests every scenario before it goes live.

###

### What can start an automation from Grist?

Any of Grist's 4 triggers in the catalog, including New or Updated Record, New or Updated Record (Instant), New Record and New Record (Instant). Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.

###

### What can your agent do in OpusClip when something happens in Grist?

Any of OpusClip's 10 actions, including Clip Your Video, Create Collection, Get Transcript of Project and Get Your Video With Captions. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Can it also run from OpusClip to Grist?

OpusClip has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Grist. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads OpusClip's API documentation and adds it.

###

### Do I have to build a connector for Grist or OpusClip?

No. Both are in the catalog with their triggers and actions. You describe the automation; your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running.

###

### Can my AI client use Grist and OpusClip without building an automation?

Yes. With your AI client connected to APIANT, ask it to do something in either app once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. One connection covers both.

###

### What happens when something fails?

Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Is there a free plan?

Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
