Heads up — the best practice changed since the video

The video sets this up with Playwright browser automation + cloned skills. Skip that — Higgsfield now ships an official MCP that gives Claude native Seedance 2.0. Cleaner, faster, nothing to wrangle. The steps below use the MCP instead.

SETUP

Six steps. ~5 minutes.

Claude Code + the Higgsfield MCP → Seedance 2.0.

Work with meBuilt for your business, or coached to build it yourself

Install Claude Code

If you don't have it yet. Node runs the installer.

# macOS — Node (for npm)
brew install node

# Claude Code
npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code
claude login

Set up the Higgsfield MCP

The new way. No Playwright, no browser automation, no cloning skill folders. Higgsfield now ships an official MCP that plugs Seedance 2.0 — and every other Higgsfield model — straight into Claude. Grab the setup link below.

Unlock the MCP setup link

Drop your email to reveal the official Higgsfield MCP setup link. That link is what you paste into Claude in step 05.

Get the MCP setup link

Drop your email — you get the official Higgsfield MCP setup link + the install command. No spam.

Sign up for Higgsfield

Higgsfield runs the generations — Claude just orchestrates them. Free credits on signup. Use my link, it tracks back to me. Same pricing whether you use it or not.

Once signed up, you'll finish a quick OAuth step when you connect the MCP in step 05.

Add the MCP to Claude Code

Paste the setup link from step 03 in place of <link>, then authenticate once. Claude picks up every Higgsfield tool for good.

# paste the link from step 03 in place of <link>
claude mcp add --transport http higgsfield <link>

# then, in any Claude Code session:
> /mcp
# pick "higgsfield" → authenticate → OAuth opens in browser

Done. Tools live as mcp__higgsfield__* in every session. Now just talk to Claude — step 06 has prompts to steal.

Prompt Claude — a few to steal

No commands to memorize. Describe the shot in plain English and Claude picks Seedance 2.0, writes the prompt, and generates it into your working directory. Steal these:

> make a cinematic Seedance 2.0 clip — slow dolly through neon
  Tokyo rain at night, anamorphic lens flares, shallow depth

> generate a product ad: my pink mic on a black backdrop, soft
  rim light, slow 360 turntable, 5 seconds

> UGC talking-head, bedroom setup, direct to camera:
  "this AI tool just changed how I make content"

> take this photo [drop an image] and animate it — subtle
  parallax push-in, hair and fabric moving in the wind

> anime fight scene, two swordsmen on a rooftop at dusk,
  fast camera whip-pans, speed lines, sakura petals

Ask for changes the same way — "make it slower", "warmer grade", "9:16 for reels" — Claude re-runs it. No UI, no timeline.

Two ways in: I build it for your business, or I teach you to build it yourself. Owners, operators and learners all welcome. Start here.
