Dub

Full auto-dubbing: transcribe → translate → TTS with cloned speaker voice → dubbed video.

Paste into your MCP config file — .cursor/mcp.json (Cursor), .vscode/mcp.json (VS Code), or claude_desktop_config.json (Claude Desktop).

Available tools

Teach your AI the workflows

Optional but recommended

The MCP tools give your AI assistant capabilities. The NarrateAI Skill teaches it when to use each tool, what to ask you, and the best workflow for your goal — so you get better results without memorizing tool names.

What the skill adds

Picks the right tool for each request automatically
Asks for voice preference (AI preset or clone) before narrating
Handles multi-step flows like translate → re-narrate
Knows batch processing patterns and language requirements

Install by platform

1. Zip the narrateai-video-workflows folder
2. Claude.ai → Settings → Capabilities → Skills
