# Edit videos with Muse

> Muse has no MCP setting, so you ask it: tell Muse to add Tella as a connector with the MCP server https://api.tella.com/mcp, then open the sign-in link it sends and sign in to Tella. Muse saves a skill so later chats use Tella too.

## Set up Tella in Muse

1. **Ask Muse to add Tella.** Paste this into a new message.

```text
Add Tella as a connector. Its MCP server is https://api.tella.com/mcp, a remote MCP server over streamable HTTP that uses OAuth. Send me the sign-in link and I'll approve it with my Tella account. Save a skill so anything about my Tella videos, playlists, or edits goes through the Tella tools.
```

2. **Approve the sign-in link.** Open the link Muse sends, sign in to Tella, and pick a workspace. Nothing installs on your device: Muse connects from its own cloud.

## Prompts to try in Muse

- **Record a demo:** Record a product demo of https://example.com/pricing with Auto Capture and send me the link when it's ready.

## Questions people ask

### Can Muse edit videos?

Yes, once you connect Tella. Muse can't edit a video file by itself, but with the Tella MCP server it can cut clips by transcript, remove filler words and silences, add zooms, layouts, captions and B-roll, export, and publish to YouTube, LinkedIn, X, Instagram and Facebook.

### How do I connect Muse to Tella?

Muse has no MCP setting, so you ask it: tell Muse to add Tella as a connector with the MCP server https://api.tella.com/mcp, then open the sign-in link it sends and sign in to Tella. Muse saves a skill so later chats use Tella too.

### Do I need an API key?

No. You sign in to Tella in your browser with OAuth and pick a workspace, and the agent never sees your password. Use an API key only for scripts, CI, or a client that can't open a browser.

### Can Muse change videos without asking?

Muse works with your Tella permissions in the workspace you pick, and only edits videos you can edit. Most agents ask before running a tool that changes something, and you can disconnect Tella at any time.

### Is it free?

The Tella MCP server is included on every plan, including the 7-day free trial with no credit card. Pro is $13 a month, billed annually. Auto Capture uses credits for each take.
