Use Kling Avatar Pro from Claude Code

Kling Avatar Pro is Kuaishou's premium talking-head video model. Pair a source portrait with an audio file and Kling generates lip-synced video of that character speaking. Best in class for AI presenter, avatar, or virtual host work.

If you use Claude Code and you want Kling Avatar Pro 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.
