1
Add Tella and sign in
The second command opens Tella in your browser to sign in.
Terminal
```
opencode mcp add tella --url https://api.tella.com/mcp
opencode mcp auth tella
```
2
Add Tella's editing skills (optional)
The skills teach your agent to read a video before editing it, pick the right tool, and check the result. They add workflows like removing mistakes, auto layouts and short clips.
Terminal
```
npx skills add tellahq/skills -g -a opencode

Ask OpenCode to…

OpenCode reads the transcript and timeline, makes the edits with Tella's tools, and sends you a link.

Remove the filler words and long pauses from my latest Tella video, then add zooms wherever I click.

tellalist_videos
tellaget_transcript
tellaremove_fillers
tellaremove_silences
tellagenerate_auto_zooms

Done. The filler words and long pauses are gone, and each click now zooms in. Here's the link to watch it.

Frequently asked questions

Yes, once you connect Tella. OpenCode 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.

Run opencode mcp add tella --url https://api.tella.com/mcp, then opencode mcp auth tella to sign in to Tella in your browser. opencode mcp list then shows tella as connected.

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.

OpenCode 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.

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.
