Integration

CloudConvert integration

CloudConvert file conversion API: assemble jobs that chain import, convert and export tasks across more than two hundred file formats, follow the progress of every task, and read the temporary download URL of each produced file. Work is asynchronous, so a job is accepted immediately and its tasks move through waiting and processing before they finish. This integration covers jobs, tasks, the standalone import, convert and export task endpoints, the blocking wait endpoints and the account credit balance.

Say what should happen.
The workflow builds itself.

When this happens, do that in CloudConvert.Built from the 16 CloudConvert tools below, on the connection you add once.

Common CloudConvert use cases

inspecting each step of a job
getting an export URL in one step
converting a small file in one step
converting an imported document to PDF
converting an uploaded document to PDF
finding a recent conversion by its tag
waiting for an individual conversion step
retrieving the PDF produced by a conversion
recovering from a transient conversion failure
stopping a conversion that is no longer needed

What you can do with CloudConvert

Each of these is one operation on one endpoint, available both as a workflow step and as a tool an AI agent can call on its own. Nothing bundles several operations into one action, so what a run did stays readable afterwards.

Most endpoints run on the free plan. A few, mainly the ones that publish on your behalf, need a paid plan.

Use CloudConvert from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex

Connect CloudConvert in LiveContext, create an API key in Settings, then add the LiveContext MCP server to your client. Its CloudConvert operations become tools the client can call, next to every other integration you connected.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http livecontext https://livecontext.ai/mcp --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Codex (~/.codex/config.toml)

[mcp_servers.livecontext]
url = "https://livecontext.ai/mcp"

[mcp_servers.livecontext.http_headers]
"X-API-Key" = "YOUR_API_KEY"

Cursor, Claude Desktop and other JSON configs

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "livecontext": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://livecontext.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}
