Get an API key

Copy and send this to your agent

Paste it into Claude Code, Codex or Cursor. It asks for your key, sets everything up and runs a check.

Install the Tapra MCP server (@tapra/mcp) for me.
1. Ask me for my Tapra API key (it starts with tapra_sk_live_; I get it at https://tapra.tn/dashboard/api-keys).
2. Add a local stdio MCP server named "tapra" that runs: npx -y @tapra/mcp
   with env TAPRA_API_KEY=<my key> and TAPRA_OUTPUT_DIR=~/Tapra.
3. Check that ffmpeg is installed; if not, tell me how to install it for my OS
   (it is needed for video, long files and mp3/opus output).
4. Restart or reload MCP servers, then call the tapra_status tool and show me the result.
