Haiku 5.5 in Cursor with Sume MCP: a 150k request costs 8x a 90k one
Cursor adds Claude Haiku 5.5 from Settings > Models. Its price steps up above 100k input tokens: 90k costs $0.009 and 150k costs $0.075 before output.
Integrations
Calling Sume from automation platforms, serverless functions, agent frameworks, and MCP clients. Each uses plain HTTPS or remote MCP, not a connector.
Can an MCP OAuth token double as a Sume API key? No
Sume says hosted MCP takes an OAuth token or an API key, never one for the other. Do not paste a token into x-api-key or mint a key as a workaround.
One Sume MCP URL in Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code: keys compared
One https://mcp.sume.com/mcp URL, three shapes: claude mcp add --transport http, Cursor's mcpServers url, and VS Code's servers with type http.
VS Code mcp.json: put the Sume API key in a password input
In VS Code, declare a promptString input with password true and reference it as ${input:id} in the x-api-key header, so the Sume key never lands in mcp.json.
VS Code mcp.json for Sume: set type http, not sse
VS Code accepts type http or sse for a remote MCP server. Sume documents a streamable HTTP endpoint at https://mcp.sume.com/mcp, so use type http and a url.
Unattended agent on Sume MCP: API key or OAuth consent?
A cron or CI agent cannot click a consent page. Sume's docs give OAuth to interactive clients and API-key remote MCP to automation, with caps set per call.
Sume MCP with Write off: what an OAuth agent can still do
With OAuth read-only (mcp:read), an agent on Sume's hosted MCP can still read jobs, assets and the catalog and scrape pages. Writes and paid tools fail.
Codex bearer_token_env_var for Sume MCP: keep the key out of config
Codex can read a bearer token from an environment variable, so your Sume API key never lands in config.toml. Setup, the OAuth alternative, and what to check.
Codex tool_timeout_sec is 60: size Sume jobs_wait to fit under it
Codex stops a tool call after 60 seconds by default. Sume jobs_wait holds at most 55 seconds, so one slice fits. Here is the loop and the config.

n8n's MCP Client Tool offers Bearer, header and OAuth2 auth and a Selected tools mode. Set it up against Sume's mcp.sume.com/mcp, and know the endpoint caveat.
Sume MCP idempotency_key: retry a timed-out paid call safely
Reuse the same idempotency_key to retry a paid Sume MCP call that timed out. A new key makes a new job. A reused key with a different payload returns 409.
Image 1.0 and Video 1.0 are not on Sume's hosted MCP: what to call
images_create and videos_create are REST-only. On hosted MCP the router tools generate_image and generate_video cover stills and clips. Fallback and checks.
Sume MCP jobs_wait returns 524: it is not a failed job
A 524, 522, 523 or 525 on Sume jobs_wait is a transport failure, not a job result. Wait again on the same ids and never resubmit the paid create.
Zapier MCP costs two tasks a call: batch Sume jobs_wait first
Each Zapier MCP tool call uses two tasks. When an agent uses Sume and Zapier together, wait on all jobs in one jobs_wait, then make one Zapier call.
Claude Code headersHelper for a Sume API key: rotate with no edits
Claude Code can run a script for MCP headers on every connection. Use it to feed a Sume API key from a secrets store, so rotation needs no config edit.
Claude Code 25,000-token MCP output cap and Sume batch jobs_result
Claude Code truncates MCP output past 25,000 tokens by default. Sume include_results and batch jobs_result keep wave answers small. Settings and loop.
Claude Code MCP_TOOL_TIMEOUT and the timeout field for Sume jobs_wait
Claude Code has no short default tool timeout, so a stalled Sume jobs_wait can hang. Set a per-server timeout in .mcp.json and let the agent retry slices.
Gemini CLI httpUrl or url for Sume MCP: which key to use
In Gemini CLI settings, url is the SSE endpoint and httpUrl is HTTP streaming. Sume's endpoint is streamable HTTP, so use httpUrl. Config and checks inside.
Gemini CLI includeTools for Sume MCP: expose reads, keep trust false
Gemini CLI can allowlist MCP tools with includeTools, and trust defaults to false. Use both to give an agent Sume reads without paid generation.
Gemini CLI MCP timeout is 600000 ms; Sume jobs_wait caps at 55 s
Gemini CLI waits up to 10 minutes per MCP request, but Sume cuts jobs_wait at 55 seconds. Set the client timeout low and loop on wait_slice_expired.
Roo Code alwaysAllow for Sume MCP: which tools to auto-approve
Roo Code alwaysAllow skips the approval click. Auto-approve Sume read tools only, and keep paid ones manual or behind dry_run and a spend cap.
Roo Code MCP timeout 60 s default: add Sume as streamable-http
Roo Code defaults MCP requests to 60 seconds and allows 1 to 3600. Here is the streamable-http entry for Sume with a timeout that fits jobs_wait.
Sume MCP insufficient_scope: why it happens and the two ways to fix it
A Sume MCP tool returns insufficient_scope when an OAuth session has mcp:read only. Fix it by re-consenting with Write on, or by using an API key.
Sume MCP jobs_wait with 20 job_ids: wait_for any versus all
jobs_wait takes up to 20 job_ids and wait_for any or all. All is the default. Any returns early, but the other jobs keep running and billing. Examples inside.
Sume 429 queue_full from an MCP agent: wave sizes for Free to Scale
An agent that submits too many paid jobs hits 429 queue_full. Accepted capacity is 6 on Free, 24 on Pro, 48 on Startup, 120 on Scale. Wave sizes inside.
Sume MCP script_run: fan out 3+ calls in one turn, 55 s limit
script_run runs a short JavaScript program on Sume that calls tools in a loop or in parallel. timeout_seconds is 5 to 55. Use it for 3+ similar calls.
Cut out 25 product photos from an agent: rmbg_create and jobs_wait
An MCP agent submits 25 rmbg_create calls, waits with jobs_wait in two slices (20 ids, then 5), and pays 25 x $0.0225 = $0.5625. Idempotency keys inside.
Photo dance via hosted MCP: kling-motion-control_create needs a key
The hosted MCP exposes kling-motion-control_create as a paid tool that requires an idempotency_key. 8 s of motion control costs 8 x $0.1575 = $1.26.
Let an agent pick talking video, Fabric or H3 Max over MCP
Rules for an agent on hosted MCP: avatar-videos_create for scripts, avatar-image-to-video_create for audio, and dry_run plus max_spend_usd before any paid call.
