Runway for AI agents

Runway is a generative AI platform that creates and edits video, images, and audio from text or image prompts, used by video editors, marketers, and creative teams. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.

01 · USE CASES

What agents do in Runway.

01

Generate a video from an image

Turns a reference image into a short video clip using an image-to-video generation model.

02

Check usage before a big render

Looks up current credit usage so an agent confirms budget before starting a costly generation task.

03

Delete a document only after approval

Removes a generated document from the workspace only once the requester confirms it is no longer needed.

02 · ACTIONS

22 Runway actions, graded by risk.

Every Runway action is tagged read, write or destructive, so one policy covers the whole app and new actions inherit the right default.

  2. 02You set the rulesReads run, writes like “create Document” can wait for the user, and “delete Document” can be denied outright.
  3. 03Any agent can actYour agent calls Runway through the Arc0 SDK or MCP, and so can Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. Every call lands on the audit log.
POLICY.TS
await arc0.policies.set('runway', {
  read: 'allow',
  write: 'ask',        // create_document
  destructive: 'deny',  // delete_document

04 · AUTH AND DATA

How Runway connects.

Users add their Runway api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.

The same Runway connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →

07 · FAQ

Runway and Arc0, answered.

Q01

Can I use Runway with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect Runway to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Runway actions you allow.

Q02

How do users connect Runway?

Users add their Runway api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.

Q03

Which Runway actions can my agent take?

22 in total: 8 read, 12 write and 2 destructive, such as “create Document”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.

Q04

Can I stop my agent from deleting things in Runway?

Yes. Actions like “delete Document” are graded destructive. Set destructive actions to deny, or to ask so the user approves each one, and blocked calls still show up on the audit log.

Q05

Can my own backend call Runway too?

Yes. The same Runway connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
