My Painting Club MCP

A remote MCP server that allows AI agents to search transcribed painting lessons from mypaintingclub.com. It answers natural-language questions about painting techniques such as colour mixing, edges, composition, value, brushwork, oils, and acrylics. Results include the answer text, lesson title, sales page URL, and a Vimeo deep link with the exact timestamp.

Search the mypaintingclub.com painting-lesson knowledge base. The knowledge base is built from transcribed Vimeo lessons covering topics such as colour mixing, brushwork, composition, value, edges, and painting techniques for oils and acrylics. Given a natural-language question, the tool returns up to `top_k` relevant answers drawn from real lesson content. Each result includes: - `answer`: the lesson's explanation for that question - `lesson_title`: the name of the lesson - `sales_page_url`: the mypaintingclub.com page where members can watch - `start_time_seconds` / `end_time_seconds`: the exact clip in the video - `vimeo_deep_link`: a direct URL to that moment (e.g. https://vimeo.com/123456789#t=312s) - `score`: cosine distance (lower = more relevant; 0 = identical) Use this tool whenever a member or agent asks a painting technique question that might be answered by a specific lesson.

This server is operated by the named third party. Listing and endpoint checks are not an endorsement or a security audit. Review the operator's permissions, terms, and data handling before connecting. How listings are checked and corrected.

Claude Code

Run this once in a terminal. It registers the remote server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.
Claude Code configuration
claude mcp add --transport http my-painting-club-mcp https://mypaintingclub.com/kb/mcp

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).
Codex configuration
codex mcp add my-painting-club-mcp --url https://mypaintingclub.com/kb/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable my-painting-club-mcp in your MCP settings.
Cursor configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "my-painting-club-mcp": {
      "url": "https://mypaintingclub.com/kb/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cline

Merge this into cline_mcp_settings.json (Cline → MCP Servers → Configure).
Cline configuration

      "disabled": false
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Merge this server into .vscode/mcp.json. Use MCP: List Servers to start my-painting-club-mcp and inspect its tools.
VS Code configuration

  "servers": {
    "my-painting-club-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mypaintingclub.com/kb/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Gemini CLI

Run this once. It writes .gemini/settings.json in the current project; pass --scope user for ~/.gemini/settings.json.
Gemini CLI configuration
gemini mcp add --transport http my-painting-club-mcp https://mypaintingclub.com/kb/mcp

Claude Desktop

Open Claude Settings > Connectors > Add custom connector, enter this server URL and enable it for the conversation. This is a manual remote-connector handoff, not a desktop JSON configuration.
