How to remove an object from a video with Claude MCP and Medux
Use Claude and Medux through MCP to remove a selected object from a video using mask regions. This guide keeps file roles and constraints in context, reviews the proposed call, and validates the returned result.
POST/api/app/v1/process/video/remove_video_object
Remove an object from a video by mask regions.
Open the Remove Video Object API reference →Claude-specific workflow
Run Remove an Object from Video as a Claude MCP workflow
Keep the goal, source assets, and constraints together in the conversation. Ask Claude to restate the source video and precise mask regions for the object to remove before proposing medux_remove_video_object. That context checkpoint makes the file roles and desired outcome easy to correct before any Medux call is approved.
Claude prompt pattern
Using the assets and requirements in this conversation, help me remove an object from a video with Medux MCP.
Restate which input fulfills each role: the source video and precise mask regions for the object to remove.
Propose the medux_remove_video_object call and summarize its arguments before asking for approval.
When it finishes, return the cleaned video with a checklist confirming that the intended object is removed through the required frames without damaging unrelated regions.Context checkpoint
Have Claude summarize the intended transformation, identify every source asset by role, and list the important constraints. Review that summary together with the proposed tool arguments; correct the conversation first if a file, order, time range, or setting is ambiguous.
Result verification
Keep the Medux task ID in the conversation while Claude checks progress. When processing ends, ask for the cleaned video plus a concise validation checklist confirming that the intended object is removed through the required frames without damaging unrelated regions.
What this tutorial does
Medux operation
Remove an object from a video by mask regions.
Agent workflow
Claude selects medux_remove_video_object, presents the arguments for review, calls Medux, and reports the response.
Before you start
Authentication
- Authentication is required via Authorization header.
Preconditions
- Upload the source file and create a file reference before calling this endpoint.
- Successful requests return a Medux task record immediately. Use the task query or sync endpoints to track completion.
- All file inputs must be uploaded and persisted as file references before submission.
Prompt Claude
Start with a clear instruction that names the Medux operation and the intended inputs.
Remove an object from a video by mask regions.Request fields to review
Confirm these values before approving the MCP tool call. The linked API page remains the source of truth for current limits and response semantics.
| Field | Type | Requirement | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
input_file_id | string | Required | Input video file id. |
mask_regions | object | Required | Regions to remove, e.g. [[x, y, width, height]]. |
model_id | string | Optional | Model Default: remove-video-object-default. |
title | string | Optional | Optional task title. |
Step-by-step workflow
02
Prepare the required inputs
Prepare the source files, asset IDs, text, or settings required by the operation. Upload local media first when the tool requests file IDs.
03
Ask Claude to run Remove Video Object
Use one direct instruction with the intended values. Claude should select the Medux tool and show the proposed arguments before execution.
04
Review and approve the tool call
Check that the tool is medux_remove_video_object and that each file ID, task ID, option, and output setting matches your request before approving it.
05
Check the Medux response
If Medux returns an asynchronous task, let the agent monitor it until completion; otherwise review the immediate response and save any result identifiers or output URLs.
