MCP Server Guide

Use Kling 3.0 4K from Claude Code

Kling 3.0 4K is the only native-4K video generation model on AetherWave. 94 cr/s is expensive but justified when 4K is the actual requirement (not upscaled from 1080p). Audio is included free at the 4K tier.

If you use Claude Code and you want Kling 3.0 4K available as a native tool that the agent can call directly, the AetherWave MCP server wires it up in one command. No SDK to learn, no separate API key per provider, no polling loop to write.

Install in 30 seconds

Run this from your terminal:

Generate true native 4k video production

Claude Code calls aetherwave_generate_video with model: "kling-3.0-4k-t2v" and returns the finished asset URL. The result auto-saves to your AetherWave gallery (Cloudflare R2 hosted, no URL expiration).
