    "prompt": "A butterfly flying through a garden of flowers",
    "durationSeconds": 8,
    "aspectRatio": "16:9",
    "resolution": "1080p"

**Example — image reference:**

```json
{
  "name": "generate-video",
  "arguments": {
    "prompt": "The product spinning on a white background",
    "referenceImages": [
      {
        "image": "/path/to/product.png",

## Connecting to MCP Clients

### Claude Desktop

  "mcpServers": {
    "google-vertex": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["mcp-remote", "http://localhost:3005/mcp"]
    }
  }
}
```

### VS Code

Add to your `.vscode/mcp.json`:

```json
{
  "servers": {
    "google-vertex": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "http://localhost:3005/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

### MCP Inspector

Test your server with the MCP Inspector:

```bash
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector
```

Then connect to: `http://localhost:3005/mcp`

## Architecture

The server follows clean architecture principles with separation of concerns:

- **Config Layer**: Environment variable management and validation
- **Service Layer**: Vertex AI integration and storage management
- **Tools Layer**: Shared utilities (e.g. reference image resolution)
- **Server Layer**: MCP protocol implementation and Express server setup

## Error Handling

The server includes comprehensive error handling:

- Graceful error responses for tool invocations
- Detailed error messages for troubleshooting
- Proper HTTP status codes

## Performance Tips

- Use appropriate aspect ratios and resolutions for your use case
- Monitor Vertex AI quotas and billing
- Consider implementing request queuing for high-traffic scenarios
