Getting Started with Eranol Connector

This guide walks you through connecting the Eranol Connector to Claude and using it to edit video/audio, generate images, and publish to social media — all from a normal chat with Claude, with no coding required.

What this is

Eranol Connector links Claude to eranol.com's video/audio editing, AI image generation, and social publishing tools. Once connected, you can ask Claude in plain language to do things like "trim this video to the first 30 seconds" or "add captions to this clip" or "generate an image of a sunset and post it to X" — Claude handles the API calls for you.

Every action costs eranol.com credits from your own account (the same as if you called their API directly). This connector doesn't add any markup or fees of its own — it's just the bridge that lets Claude use your eranol.com account on your behalf.

Step 1 — Get your eranol.com API key

  1. Go to eranol.com and sign in (or create an account).
  2. Open your dashboard.
  3. Find the API Keys section and generate a new key.
  4. Copy the key somewhere safe. Treat it like a password — anyone who has it can spend your eranol.com credits.

If you don't already have eranol.com credits, top up your balance before continuing, or the tools will fail with an "insufficient credits" error the first time you use them.

Step 2 — Add the connector in Claude

The steps differ slightly depending on how you use Claude.

Option A: claude.ai (web or desktop app)

  1. Click your account, then go to Settings → Connectors. (On some plans this is under Customize → Connectors instead.)
  2. Click Add custom connector.
  3. In the Server URL field, paste:
    https://eranol-connector-production.up.railway.app/mcp
    
  4. Look for a Request headers section in the same dialog.
    • Click to add a header.
    • Name: x-api-key
    • Value: paste your eranol.com API key from Step 1.
    • Mark it Required.
  5. Click Add (or Save).

If you don't see "Request headers" in the dialog: this feature is still rolling out to accounts gradually. If it's missing for you, use Option B (Claude Desktop or Claude Code) instead, which supports this today, or check back later on claude.ai.

Option B: Claude Desktop or Claude Code

Open your MCP configuration file and add this entry (merge it into your existing config if you already have other connectors set up):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "eranol": {
      "url": "https://eranol-connector-production.up.railway.app/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "x-api-key": "YOUR_ERANOL_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace YOUR_ERANOL_API_KEY with the key from Step 1. Save the file and restart Claude Desktop/Code for it to pick up the change.

Step 3 — Turn the connector on in a chat

  1. Start a new chat with Claude.
  2. Click the + button near the message box.
  3. Select Connectors.
  4. Toggle Eranol Connector on.

The connector needs to be enabled per-chat — it won't automatically apply to conversations where you haven't turned it on.

Step 4 — Check it's working

Ask Claude:

"Verify my eranol.com API key is working"

Claude will call the connector's verify tool and tell you whether the key is valid. If it says invalid or missing, double check the x-api-key header value you entered in Step 2 — a common mistake is pasting extra whitespace around the key.

What you can ask Claude to do

Once connected, just describe what you want in plain language. Some examples:

Video editing

  • "Trim this video (paste URL) to just the first 15 seconds"
  • "Add burned-in captions to this video"
  • "Add a watermark logo to the top-right corner of this video"
  • "Concatenate these three video clips in order, with a fade transition between them"
  • "Extract the audio from this video as a WAV file"
  • "Generate a GIF from this video, seconds 10 to 20"
  • "Reframe this video to a 9:16 vertical aspect ratio for TikTok"

Audio editing

  • "Remove the background noise from this audio file"
  • "Enhance this voice recording and normalize the loudness for Spotify"
  • "Trim the silent gaps out of this podcast recording"
  • "Find the 5 most exciting highlight moments in this recording"

Image generation

  • "Generate an image of a mountain landscape at sunset"

Format conversion

  • "Convert this WebM video to MP4"
  • "Convert this PNG to WebP"

Social publishing

  • "Post this to X: 'New feature just shipped!' with this image attached"
  • "Publish this video to TikTok with the caption 'Check this out!'"

Combining steps Claude can chain multiple tools together in one request, for example:

"Take this raw video, remove the background noise from the audio, add auto-generated captions, put a watermark in the corner, and then post the result to X with the caption 'New tutorial is live!'"

Claude will run each step, wait for processing to finish where needed, and report back the final result.

Good to know

  • Processing takes time. Video/audio/image jobs run in the background on eranol.com's servers. Claude will automatically wait and check progress — for longer videos, this can take anywhere from a few seconds to a couple of minutes. You don't need to do anything during this wait; Claude handles the polling.
  • Files must already be online. Any video, audio, or image you want processed needs to be at a public URL Claude can pass along (e.g. a link you already have, or a file eranol.com is already hosting from a previous step in the same conversation) — you can't upload a file straight from your computer through this connector.
  • X/Twitter posting costs more than other actions (20 credits per post) and there's no "undo" once it's posted — Claude is instructed to use it deliberately, not for testing.
  • Files expire after 24 hours. Eranol.com automatically deletes hosted files a day after they're created, so download or repost anything you want to keep before then.
  • Errors are shown, not hidden. If something fails — invalid input, low credits, an eranol.com outage — Claude will show you the actual error message rather than pretending it worked, so you always know what to fix.

Troubleshooting

"API key is missing or invalid"Wrong or missing x-api-key headerRe-check Step 2, re-paste the key carefully

Questions or issues

This connector is a thin bridge to eranol.com's own API — all processing, billing, and account management happens on eranol.com's side. For billing questions or API key issues, contact eranol.com support. For issues with the connector itself (connection errors, missing tools), reach out to whoever shared this connector with you.
