Connect Claude or ChatGPT

Connect your AI assistant to Lumenia once, then ask it to find titles in your playlists, pick what to watch, fill your TVs' Home with rows, or play something on a TV. Free plans work too.

The address to add in the assistant:

What you allow

You approve the connection on Lumenia, from a profile that manages it. You choose whose data the assistant uses (which profile) and what it may do:

• browse your playlists: titles, years and categories, never your playlist logins;
• see what you watched;
• set the picks rows on your TVs' Home, your favourites, and titles you've already seen;
• ask a TV to play something: the TV always asks you to confirm first.

You can disconnect an assistant at any time, from TVs, then AI assistants, on your portal.

Claude

Works on the free plan (one custom connector) and on paid plans.

1. In Claude (claude.ai or the desktop app), go to Customize, then Connectors.
2. Click + Add, then Add custom connector.
3. Name: Lumenia. Remote MCP server URL: https://lumenia.tv/mcp. Click Continue.
4. Keep the sign-in settings Claude detects and click Add.
5. Click Connect: Lumenia opens. Sign in, choose the profile and what Claude may do, then Allow.
6. In a chat, click +, then Connectors, and make sure Lumenia is on.

On Team and Enterprise plans, an owner adds it first under Organization settings, then Connectors; members then click Connect.

ChatGPT

Works on the free plan too.

1. In ChatGPT, open Plugins, click Add, then Add custom MCP server.
2. Name: Lumenia. URL: https://lumenia.tv/mcp. Create it as a plugin.
3. Lumenia opens: sign in, choose the profile and what ChatGPT may do, then Allow.
4. In a chat, make sure the Lumenia plugin is on.

Claude and ChatGPT move their menus from time to time: if a name differs, look for Connectors, Plugins, or Apps.

Things to ask

The titles and channels below are examples: use the ones in your own playlist.

Find something

• “Is there a French version of Medina Lights in my playlist?”
• “Which comedies from the last five years do I have?”
• “What's on City Sport 1 right now, and what's next?”

Decide what to watch

• “We liked the last two series we watched. What should we start tonight?”
• “Something under 100 minutes, funny, that we haven't seen yet.”
• “Where did I stop in Northreach?”

Fill your TVs' Home

• “Make a Friday movie night row with ten feel-good films, and a row for the kids.”
• “Pick ten comedies for Sara's Home.”
• “We've already seen those three: take them out of the picks.”

Use your TVs

• “Play the next episode of The Quiet Harbour in the living room.”
• “Pause the bedroom TV.” or “Go back 30 seconds on the living room TV.”
• “What's playing on the TVs right now?”
• “Add this channel to our favourites.”

Nothing plays without someone pressing OK on the TV, and a profile with a PIN asks for it before switching.

Lumenia is only a player: assistants search the playlists and addons you added yourself, and only content you have the right to watch.
