For your AI
Let your AI build on Renderball
Your Claude Code, Codex or Cursor writes the deck. Renderball reads your brand, checks the deck, renders it with motion, and opens it in an editor where you finish it and share it. Nothing to copy or paste.
No setup at all: one link
Any AI that can open a link, or just write one, can have Renderball build a deck. Tell yours “build a deck on renderball.com” and it will find the recipe at renderball.com/for-ai. An AI that can make web requests or open links tells us the brand it knows, writes the deck itself and sends us the file, with no setup at all. An AI that can only write text puts your brief into a link like this one, and Renderball writes the deck. Either way you get one link, and sign in only when you want to edit.

Point your AI at Renderball with no key at all. It makes the deck and hands you one link: it shows the deck, and its Edit button signs you in and makes the deck yours. Decks made this way are limited to a few per day and disappear after 7 days unless you claim them.
Claude Code:
claude mcp add --transport http renderball https://renderball.com/api/mcpCodex:
codex mcp add renderball --url https://renderball.com/api/mcpCursor: Add to Cursor (or the JSON below in any client that takes one)
{ "mcpServers": { "renderball": { "url": "https://renderball.com/api/mcp" } } }Coding agents that use skills: npx skills add agarces1999/renderball-skills installs the Renderball skill (works in Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI and more). Claude Code and Cowork: /plugin marketplace add agarces1999/renderball-skills then /plugin install renderball@renderball.
With a key (below) there are no limits, your AI can list and revisit your decks, and everything it makes lands in your account straight away.
1 · Create a key
On your account page, create a key. The page then shows the setup for each tool with the key already inside — one Copy button each. The key is shown once; it acts as you, so keep it private and revoke it when you stop using it.
2 · Connect your AI
Claude Code:
claude mcp add --transport http renderball https://renderball.com/api/mcp \
--header "Authorization: Bearer rb_live_…"Codex:
export RENDERBALL_API_KEY=rb_live_…
codex mcp add renderball --url https://renderball.com/api/mcp --bearer-token-env-var RENDERBALL_API_KEYCursor, or any client that takes a JSON config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"renderball": {
"url": "https://renderball.com/api/mcp",
"headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer rb_live_…" }
}
}
}3 · Ask for a deck
Something like:
Use Renderball to make a 5-page deck for yourcompany.com introducing our product to a new customer:
the problem, how we solve it, what it looks like in practice, why it's different, the next step.
Write the outline and the deck yourself, submit it, and give me the editor link.Your AI creates the deck, hands Renderball its outline, gets back the writing brief (our format, your brand, the rules), writes the file, submits it, and returns the editor link. The whole thing usually takes a few minutes of your AI's time and about half a minute of ours.
What your AI can do
- create_deck — a new document from the brief, the brand and your outline; returns the writing brief. Two calls for a whole deck: this and submit_deck.
- write_outline — change the page-by-page plan of an existing deck; returns the writing brief.
- submit_deck · deck_status — the file it wrote; ready with an editor link, or the reason it failed.
- share_deck · list_decks · get_brief
Good to know
- Your AI writes on its own plan; Renderball spends a few cents checking and rendering. Editing is free.
- Numbers are checked: anything not in your brief is flagged, never invented for you.
- The claude.ai website’s connector menu and the ChatGPT apps menu take the sign-in address https://renderball.com/api/mcp/account: you sign in with Renderball once and every deck lands in your account.
