Claude-specific workflow

Run Adjust Video Volume as a Claude MCP workflow

Keep the goal, source assets, and constraints together in the conversation. Ask Claude to restate the source video and exact volume setting before proposing medux_adjust_video_volume. 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 adjust the audio volume of a video with Medux MCP.
Restate which input fulfills each role: the source video and exact volume setting.
Propose the medux_adjust_video_volume call and summarize its arguments before asking for approval.
When it finishes, return the volume-adjusted video with a checklist confirming that the volume changed as requested and the full video still plays correctly.

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 volume-adjusted video plus a concise validation checklist confirming that the volume changed as requested and the full video still plays correctly.

What this tutorial does

Medux operation

Adjust the audio volume of a video.

Agent workflow

Before you start

Authentication

Authentication is required via Authorization header.

Preconditions

Upload the source file and create a file reference before calling this endpoint.

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.

Adjust the audio volume of a video.

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.
`volume`	string	Required	ffmpeg volume expression e.g. 1.5, 0.8, 2dB.
`model_id`	string	Optional	Model Default: adjust-video-volume-default.
`title`	string	Optional	Optional task title.

Step-by-step workflow

Connect Medux MCP to Claude

Add the Medux remote MCP endpoint to Claude, provide an authorized credential, and confirm that the medux_adjust_video_volume tool is available.

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.

Ask Claude to run Adjust Video Volume

Use one direct instruction with the intended values. Claude should select the Medux tool and show the proposed arguments before execution.

Review and approve the tool call

Check that the tool is medux_adjust_video_volume and that each file ID, task ID, option, and output setting matches your request before approving it.

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.
