> **Building with AI coding agents?** Install the authstack plugin with one command. This equips your agent with accurate Scalekit implementation patterns.
>
> **Recommended** (the `-y` flags skip prompts, so the command runs without an interactive terminal):
> ```bash
> npx -y @scalekit-inc/cli setup -y
> ```
>
> Global:
> ```bash
> npm install -g @scalekit-inc/cli
> scalekit setup -y
> ```
>
> Supports Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Codex + skills for other Agent Skills-compatible agents in `~/.agents/skills`.
> Skills: integrate-agentkit, implement-saaskit, add-mcp-oauth, implement-sso, implement-scim.

# Connect AI agents to the Mux MCP server

The Mux MCP connector routes your AI agent's tool calls to Mux's own MCP server through Scalekit. Each user signs in to Mux once, and Scalekit stores and refreshes their tokens, so your agent never handles credentials. It comes with 2 tools.

**Authentication:** OAuth2.1/DCR
**Categories:** Media, Developer Tools
**Tools:** 2: 1 read, 1 write, 0 destructive
**Users sign in with:** OAuth
**OAuth app:** Scalekit's or your own
**Built by:** Vendor MCP
**Try it:** [Playground in the Scalekit dashboard](https://app.scalekit.com/ws/signup?sk_intent=playground&provider=MUXMCP)

## Setup

1. ### Install the SDK

   **Node.js**

   ```bash
   npm install @scalekit-sdk/node dotenv
   ```

   **Python**

   ```bash
   pip install scalekit-sdk-python python-dotenv
   ```

2. ### Set your credentials

   Add your Scalekit credentials to your `.env` file. Find values in **[app.scalekit.com](https://app.scalekit.com)** > **Developers** > **API Credentials**.

   ```sh title=".env"
   SCALEKIT_ENVIRONMENT_URL=<your-environment-url>
   SCALEKIT_CLIENT_ID=<your-client-id>
   SCALEKIT_CLIENT_SECRET=<your-client-secret>
   ```

3. ### Create the Mux MCP connection

   In **AgentKit > Connections**, create a Mux MCP connection. The name you give it is the `connection_name` your code passes. See [Configure connections](/agentkit/connections/).

   Scalekit credentials are available for Mux MCP server, so you don't need to register an OAuth app.

4. ### Authorize a user and make your first call

   **Node.js** (`quickstart.mts`)

   ```typescript
   import { ScalekitClient } from '@scalekit-sdk/node'
   import 'dotenv/config'
   import { createInterface } from 'node:readline/promises'

   const scalekit = new ScalekitClient(
     process.env.SCALEKIT_ENVIRONMENT_URL,
     process.env.SCALEKIT_CLIENT_ID,
     process.env.SCALEKIT_CLIENT_SECRET,
   )
   const actions = scalekit.actions

   const connector = 'muxmcp'
   const identifier = 'user_123'

   // Generate an authorization link for the user
   const { link } = await actions.getAuthorizationLink({ connectionName: connector, identifier })
   console.log('Authorize Mux MCP:', link)
   const rl = createInterface({ input: process.stdin, output: process.stdout })
   await rl.question('Press Enter after authorizing...')
   rl.close()

   // Make your first call
   const result = await actions.executeTool({
     connector,
     identifier,
     toolName: 'muxmcp_search_docs',
     toolInput: { query: 'YOUR_QUERY', language: 'http' },
   })
   console.log(result)
   ```

   ```bash
   npx tsx quickstart.mts
   ```

   **Python** (`quickstart.py`)

   ```python
   import os
   from scalekit import ScalekitClient
   from dotenv import load_dotenv
   load_dotenv()

   scalekit_client = ScalekitClient(
       env_url=os.getenv("SCALEKIT_ENVIRONMENT_URL"),
       client_id=os.getenv("SCALEKIT_CLIENT_ID"),
       client_secret=os.getenv("SCALEKIT_CLIENT_SECRET"),
   )
   actions = scalekit_client.actions

   connection_name = "muxmcp"
   identifier = "user_123"

   # Generate an authorization link for the user
   link_response = actions.get_authorization_link(
       connection_name=connection_name,
       identifier=identifier,
   )
   print("Authorize Mux MCP:", link_response.link)
   input("Press Enter after authorizing...")

   # Make your first call
   result = actions.execute_tool(
       tool_input={"query":"YOUR_QUERY","language":"http"},
       tool_name="muxmcp_search_docs",
       connection_name=connection_name,
       identifier=identifier,
   )
   print(result)
   ```

   ```bash
   python quickstart.py
   ```

   Each user signs in once. See [Authorize a user](/agentkit/tools/authorize/) for the full flow and statuses.

## Tools

Pass the exact name to `execute_tool`, with an input like each tool's example. To ask for a tool that's missing, use the [request form](https://scalekitsupport.portal.usepylon.com/forms/request-a-connector-tool).

**Node.js**

```typescript
const result = await actions.executeTool({
  toolName: 'muxmcp_search_docs',
  toolInput: {
    language: 'http',
    query: '<query>',
  },
  connector: 'muxmcp',
  identifier: 'user_123',
})
```

**Python**

```python
result = actions.execute_tool(
    tool_name="muxmcp_search_docs",
    tool_input={
        "language": "http",
        "query": "<query>",
    },
    connection_name="muxmcp",
    identifier="user_123",
)
```

`result.data` is the app's response as JSON, and `result.execution_id` (`executionId` in Node.js) is the ID of the call.

### `muxmcp_search_docs`

Search Docs · Read-only

Search SDK documentation to find methods, parameters, and usage examples for interacting with the API. Use this before writing code when you need to discover the right approach.

Read only: yes. Destructive: no. Idempotent (safe to retry): yes.

Inputs:

- `language` (`string`, required): The language for the SDK to search for. One of: `http`, `python`, `go`, `typescript`, `javascript`, `terraform`, `ruby`, `java`, `kotlin`.
- `query` (`string`, required): The query to search for.
- `detail` (`string`, optional): The amount of detail to return. One of: `default`, `verbose`.

Example input: `{"language":"http","query":"<query>"}`

### `muxmcp_execute`

Execute · Write

Runs JavaScript code to interact with the Mux API. Define an async function named "run" that takes a single parameter of an initialized SDK client. Returns anything the function returns plus console.log output. Code runs in a sandboxed container with no external network access beyond the Mux SDK client.

Read only: no. Destructive: no. Idempotent (safe to retry): no.

Inputs:

- `code` (`string`, required): Code to execute.
- `intent` (`string`, optional): Task you are trying to perform. Used for improving the service.

Example input: `{"code":"<code>"}`
