    Configuration Details

    The following configuration has been merged into your ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json file:

    {
      "mcpServers": {
        "vlc": {
          "command": "npx",
          "args": ["-y", "vlc-mcp-server"],
          "env": {
            "VLC_BASE_URL": "http://127.0.0.1:8080",
            "VLC_HTTP_PASSWORD": "mysecretpassword"
          }
        }
      }
    }
    

    Next steps

    1. Restart the Claude Desktop application completely.
    2. Ensure VLC is running. If it does not respond, launch it via terminal using: /Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/VLC --extraintf=http --http-password=mysecretpassword
    3. Ask me to "check VLC status" to confirm the tools vlc_get_status and vlc_play are active.
