Plug Venice's chat, image, video, audio, music, and character models into any agent in 30 seconds. **31 tools across all modalities, one config block.**

Quick start

1. Get a key from [venice.ai](https://venice.ai)

See the [API key guide](https://docs.venice.ai/guides/getting-started/generating-api-key) for step-by-step instructions.

2. Add this to your MCP host config

**Claude Desktop** (`~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` on macOS, `%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json` on Windows), **Cursor** (`~/.cursor/mcp.json`), **LM Studio**, etc:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "venice": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@veniceai/mcp-server@0.2.0"],
      "env": { "VENICE_API_KEY": "" }
    }
  }
}

3. Restart your MCP host

That's it. Type a prompt — your agent now has chat, image, video, music, TTS, ASR, and 25 more Venice tools.

What you get

**31 tools** spanning every Venice modality, **3 resources** (`venice://models`, `venice://styles`, `venice://voices`) and **3 prompt templates** (uncensored research, NSFW creative writing, image style explorer).
