Make videos in Windsurf

Connect Idea to Motion to Windsurf and you can ask for a video the same way you ask for anything else. Windsurf writes the script, plans each scene and writes the animation code; we synthesize the voiceover, time it to the words, render the animation and hand back an MP4. It speaks Streamable HTTP directly, so connecting is one config entry carrying an API key in an Authorization header.

  1. 1Mint a connection key below.
  2. 2Add the config entry to your client and reload it.
  3. 3Connect a voice key, then ask for a video in chat.

Add it to Windsurf

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ideatomotion": {
      "serverUrl": "https://api.ideatomotion.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer vai_YOUR_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Generate a key above to replace vai_YOUR_KEY.

  • Command Palette → “Windsurf: Configure MCP Servers”, or the hammer icon in Cascade.
  • Cascade caps at 100 active tools; past that, servers silently fail to load.

Connect your voice

Required before a narrated video can render — bring your own TTS key.

Your voice key

Idea to Motion generates the voiceover on your own text-to-speech account. Add an ElevenLabs or Cartesia key — it's stored encrypted and never shown again. Rendering is blocked until a key is connected.
