ViralNebula Cloud Connector for Claude

The Cloud Connector turns ViralNebula into a set of tools your AI assistant can call on its own. Instead of switching to a browser tab, picking a tool and filling in a form, you describe what you want in the conversation you are already having — “find me ten video ideas about index funds, then write the script for the strongest one” — and the assistant runs the real tools on your account, with your credits, and hands the output straight back into the chat.

One link, generated once

Signing in and pressing generate mints a personal connector link. The link carries a private key, which is why it is shown to you exactly once — ViralNebula keeps only a SHA-256 hash of it, so the raw value cannot be recovered or re-displayed later. Paste it into Claude under Settings, Connectors, Add custom connector. There is no second login step and no OAuth dance: the link is the credential.

Revocable at any time

Because the link is a credential, treat it like a password — anyone holding it can spend your credits. If you paste it into the wrong window, or you simply lose it, hit disconnect on this page. The key is revoked immediately and you can mint a fresh one. Each connection also shows when it was created and when it was last used, so an unfamiliar timestamp is easy to spot.

The same tools, the same limits

The connector is not a stripped-down API. It exposes the working suite: the Idea Generator, the Script Writer, the Thumbnail Generator and Thumbnail Analyzer, the Video SEO Optimizer, the Hook Optimizer, the Script Safety Check and the research tools that read YouTube's official public Data API — Viral Hunter, Competitor Spy, Keyword Research and Channel Audit.

Credits behave identically

A run costs what it costs on the website: 5 credits for a batch of ideas, 50 for a full script, 30 for a thumbnail, 10 for a growth tool. Credits are reserved before the request executes and refunded automatically when a generation fails, so an error never leaves you out of pocket. Growth tools draw on the paid-only growth bucket, so a free account will be told to upgrade rather than silently returning nothing. See the pricing page for the plan detail.

Why run the tools from an assistant at all?

Content work is a chain, not a single task: a topic becomes a title, a title becomes a script, a script becomes a hook, a thumbnail and a description. Doing that in a browser means copying each output into the next form by hand. Inside an assistant the chain stays in one thread — the assistant already holds the topic, the angle and the channel context, so it can pass them from step to step without you restating anything. It is also the fastest way to work conversationally: ask for five hook variants, reject four, and go straight to the script.

New to the suite? The how-to-use guide walks through the browser workflow first, which makes the connector easier to reason about. The AI YouTube automation guide covers where automation genuinely helps and where it does not, and our comparisons put the suite next to the extensions and dashboards you may already be paying for.

Cloud Connector questions

What is the ViralNebula Cloud Connector?

It is a custom connector that lets an AI assistant call ViralNebula's YouTube tools directly. You generate one personal connector link on this page, add it to Claude as a custom connector, and then ask for ideas, scripts, thumbnails, SEO packages or channel research in plain language instead of opening the website.

Do I need a separate subscription to use the connector?

No. The connector runs on your existing ViralNebula account and spends the same credits. Free-tier limits and paid-plan limits apply exactly as they do on the website, and growth tools such as Competitor Spy, Keyword Research and Viral Hunter still require a paid plan.

Is my connector link safe to share?

No — treat it like a password. The link contains a private key, so anyone who has it can run tools and spend your credits. ViralNebula stores only a SHA-256 hash of the key, which is why the full link is displayed exactly once at creation time.

What happens if I lose my connector link?

Disconnect the existing connection from this page and generate a new link. Revoking a key takes effect immediately, so an old link stops working as soon as you disconnect it.

Which tools can the connector run?

Idea generation, script writing, thumbnail generation, video SEO packages, thumbnail analysis, hook optimisation, script safety checks, audience comment analysis, video diagnosis, and the YouTube research tools — viral topics, competitor breakdowns, keyword research and channel audits. It can also report your current plan and credit balance and pull up your recent work.

Do failed runs still cost credits?

No. Credits are reserved before a tool runs and refunded automatically if the generation fails, whether the request came from the website or from the connector.
