Script and generate a 24-second neighborhood lifestyle video in Claude with the OpenArt connector

In Agent Intelligence issue #73, Matt Spangler adds OpenArt as a custom connector in the Claude app (Customize > Connectors, https://mcp.openart.ai/mcp), so Claude can generate video clips inside a normal chat and the agent pays per clip. Claude first lists the neighborhood questions buyers ask most, either from the agent's last 50 buyer and client emails or from a general prompt about the city. The agent picks one question, and Claude writes a three-shot, 24-second lifestyle video that answers the question for a named buyer type with no shots of a specific house, then generates each 8-second vertical clip through OpenArt. The agent assembles the clips in the phone's photos app, Instagram, or Google Vids, titles the post with the buyer's exact question, and adds a written description so AI assistants can read the answer.

First step
In the Claude app, open Customize > Connectors, add a custom connector with the URL https://mcp.openart.ai/mcp, and sign in to create an OpenArt account.

Compliance note: The clips are AI-generated scenes, not footage of the real neighborhood, so label the video as AI-generated where your platform or state requires a label, never present a generated clip as a specific property, and keep listing photos real. Avoid describing who lives in or should move to a neighborhood in ways that raise fair housing issues.

Suggested prompt

Written by this directory, inspired by the source. Replace the [bracketed] parts.

Look through my last 50 buyer and client emails and list the questions people ask most about specific neighborhoods, in their own words.
Then: Use OpenArt to build me a video. I sell homes in [neighborhood, city], and the question I want this video to answer is: [paste the buyer question]. Write me a 24-second lifestyle video, three shots of 8 seconds each, that answers it by showing the FEEL of living here to a [buyer type, e.g. young family / downsizing couple]. No shots of any specific house. For each shot, write one clean generation prompt: camera move, time of day, mood, and what is in frame. Keep it calm and cinematic, not flashy.
Then: Using OpenArt, generate the first shot from my list as an 8-second vertical clip.
