Use Kling 3.0 Pro T2V from Claude Code

Kling 3.0 Pro T2V is Kuaishou's premium tier text-to-video model. Known for exceptional camera motion fidelity. Audio is priced as a separate surcharge (+46% over base), unlike Grok/Seedance/VEO which include audio at base.

If you use Claude Code and you want Kling 3.0 Pro T2V 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.

How to use it

Once the MCP is installed, you can ask Claude Code naturally. It'll pick Kling 3.0 Pro T2V from the model-selection rubric in the tool description when your prompt matches its strengths (premium camera motion video).

Example interaction:

You
Generate premium camera motion (tracking, dolly, pan)

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

Sample prompts that work well

Example 1
"Cinematic tracking shot following a runner along a riverside path, 6 seconds, audio"
Example 2
"Slow dolly push-in on a vintage car in a garage, 8 seconds, no audio"
Example 3
"Wide pan across a mountain valley at sunrise, 10 seconds, ambient nature audio"
