Trint MCP Server

The Trint MCP (Model Context Protocol) server lets MCP-compatible AI assistants —
such as Claude Desktop, the Claude web app, and ChatGPT — work directly with the
content in your Trint account. Once connected, the assistant can search your
files, read transcripts, browse workspaces, resolve quote timecodes, and play
your media inline.

All requests run against your own Trint account, authenticated as you, and
respect the permissions already set on your files and workspaces. The server is
read-only apart from a single in-app AI Live suggestions action.

Connecting

The server speaks the MCP Streamable HTTP transport and authenticates with
OAuth 2.0. It advertises authorization-server discovery per
RFC 9728, so most MCP clients
can complete the sign-in flow automatically once you add the server URL.

Region	Server URL
Production (US)	`https://mcp.trint.com/mcp`
Production (EU)	`https://mcp.eu.trint.com/mcp`

In Claude: add a custom connector, paste the server URL for your region, and
complete the Trint sign-in when prompted. Your assistant will then list the
Trint tools below.

How authentication works

Unauthenticated requests receive 401 Unauthorized with a
WWW-Authenticate: Bearer header pointing at the protected-resource metadata
endpoint (/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource).
The client discovers the Trint authorization server from that metadata and
runs a standard OAuth flow.
The resulting access token is sent on each request and forwarded to Trint's
API. The server never stores your credentials.

Available tools

Reading content

Tool	What it does
`search`	Search your files (transcripts, narratives, captions). Filter by workspace, folder, file type, access role, creator, speaker, transcript ID, and created/updated date ranges; sort and paginate.
`get_file_content`	Return a file's content, optionally scoped to a start/end time range (in seconds).
`get_transcript`	Return a file's transcript, optionally scoped to a start/end time range.
`get_file_metadata`	Fetch metadata for a single file.
`get_folder_metadata`	Fetch metadata for a folder.
`get_workspace_metadata`	Fetch a single workspace by ID.
`list_workspaces`	List the workspaces you can access.
`get_times_from_quotes`	Map an array of quote strings to their positions in a file — each returned with its timecode, speaker, and a deep link into the Trint editor.
`get_suggestions`	Read the current AI suggestion outputs for a content-suggestions record.

Playback (interactive)

These tools return an interactive HTML5 media player, rendered inline by hosts
that support MCP Apps UI (the media streams directly from Trint / S3).

Tool	What it does
`render_file_player`	Play a file's media export (video if present, otherwise audio).
`render_quote_player`	Play a specific quote from a file.

HLS (.m3u8) sources play natively in Safari-based hosts only.

Writing (AI Live only)

Tool	What it does
`save_suggestions`	Persist AI-extracted quote suggestions during an AI Live session. Only used when an AI Live `contentSuggestionsId` is supplied; not used for general lookups.

Permissions and data

The assistant can only see files and workspaces you already have access to.
Read tools do not modify your Trint data. save_suggestions writes only within
an active AI Live session you initiated.
The server does not collect data beyond what each tool needs to answer a
request, and does not access the assistant's memory, chat history, or your
other files.
