Stream Lab MCP Server

The Stream Lab MCP Server enables MCP-compatible AI tools such as Claude to interact with your Stream Lab tests. This allow you to use natural language to explore Stream Lab's test devices, create/run tests and analyse test reports.

🧭 What It Does

The MCP server connects your Bitmovin account to your AI assistant.
Once configured, you can ask the assistant questions like:

“Get the most recent test results from Stream Lab”
“How many test passes and failures do I have on Samsung Tizen and LG WebOS?”

If you're also using the Observability MCP Server, you can ask questions which combine both tools, such as:

“Based on my Bitmovin Observability data from the past week, am I running Stream Lab tests on the devices which have the biggest issues?”
"What percentage of video plays are from devices which I'm currently testing against using Stream Lab?"

Behind the scenes, these questions are translated into API calls to Stream Lab with data returned to the AI tool.
