Getting Started
01

Make the Connection

Connect Higgsfield to Claude using MCP — the bridge that lets them talk to each other. This is the foundation everything else depends on.

Higgsfield
The platform. Holds all AI image and video models in one place. You pay with credits.
Production Studio
Claude
The intelligence. Thinks, plans, writes prompts, and controls Higgsfield. Your Creative Director.
Creative Director
MCP

About 10 minutes
📌 In Higgsfield
1.Click "MCP and CLI" in the top menu
2.Make sure Claude is selected
3.Copy the link shown on that page
📌 In Claude
1.Top left Sidebar → "Customize" → "Connectors"
2.Click "+""Add Custom Connector"
3.Name it: Higgsfield
4.Paste the copied link → Click "Add"
5.A login window opens → Sign in with your Higgsfield account
6.✓ Done. Higgsfield now appears in your connector list.

Right after connecting, you'll see a permissions list. These decide what Claude can do on its own.

What Claude Can DoSettingWhy
View generations✅ Always AllowSafe — read-only
Explore models✅ Always AllowSafe — read-only
Generate images⚠️ Ask PermissionCosts credits
Generate videos⚠️ Ask PermissionCosts more credits
⚠ Why this matters: There's no credit counter visible inside Claude. If Claude has full permission, it can fire off dozens of expensive generations in one chat — and you won't notice until credits are gone. This is a real, documented mistake.

Rule: Read-only = Always Allow  ·  Generating = Always Ask.
Knowledge Files
02

Install Skills

A skill is a knowledge file Claude reads before a task. Think of it as handing Claude a professional textbook — the prompts it writes afterwards are dramatically better.

✗ Without Skill

Claude writes generic, short prompts → average, forgettable videos with no cinematic quality.

✓ With Skill

Claude writes detailed, professional prompts with cinematic terminology, timing, and lighting → significantly better results.

📌 Always the Same Steps
1.Download the skill file (.md or .txt)
2.In Claude: Customize → Skills → + → Create Skill → Upload a Skill
3.Select the file → Open
4.✓ Skill appears in your skill list
Confirmation: When Claude uses a skill, you'll see in its response: "Reading the [Skill Name] skill."

Model Selection
03

Know the Models

Higgsfield has different models for different tasks. Always tell Claude explicitly which model to use — never let it decide on its own.

Nano Banana Pro
Product photos, studio shots, character reference sheets.
Images
GPT Image 2
Ad creatives, mockups, images with text overlays.
Ad Creatives
Cinema Studio 2.5
Storyboard images, cinematic scenes, film-style shots.
Cinematic
Seedance 2.0
All videos — product, animations, VFX effects.
Video
Marketing Studio
UGC formats: interview, unboxing, review, ASMR.
UGC
✗ Wrong

"Create a product photo."

Claude decides on its own — often picks the wrong model.

✓ Correct

"Use Nano Banana Pro for the product photo."

Claude uses the right model every time.

First Generation
04

Your First Project

The fastest way to see what the system can do. One prompt builds an entire brand from scratch — research, branding, products, and all visual assets.

Paste this into Claude
Build me a [product category] brand from scratch.

1. Do market research
2. Create the branding (name, positioning, target audience, visual identity)
3. Build a product catalog with 3 products
4. For each product, generate via Higgsfield:
   - A product photo (use Nano Banana Pro)
   - An Instagram ad (use GPT Image 2)
   - A UGC video (use Higgsfield Marketing Studio)
What happens: Claude researches, develops the brand, selects the right models, and generates all assets — you approve each generation individually.

Real example: For a headphone brand, one chat produced full branding, 3 products, and 9 assets (photo + ad + video per product).
✗ Without Reference

Claude only has text → Higgsfield generates a random product that barely resembles yours. Different color, wrong shape, wrong label every time.

✓ With Reference

Exact product appearing consistently across all videos — same color, text, and shape every time. Proven in practice.

Upload a product photo and send this
This is the reference image for our product.
For ALL future generations: the product must look EXACTLY like this.
Same color, same label, same shape. Do not change anything.
Video Production
05

Create Videos Properly

Seedance 2.0 is the most powerful video model in Higgsfield. How you use it is the difference between mediocre and professional results.

15s
Max per generation
1080p
Max resolution
3000
Max prompt chars
Seedance can create multiple camera angles and cuts from a single prompt, combine real footage with AI animations, and generate transitions between two exact images.
✗ Short Prompt

"A headphone floating in a room."

→ Lifeless, mediocre result. No movement, no atmosphere.

✓ Detailed Prompt

"0–3s: Camera slowly pushes in, soft bokeh, warm studio light. 3–6s: Slow 360° rotation, metal reflections visible..."

→ Professional result.

Solution: Always let Claude write the prompts using the Seedance Skill. Never write Seedance prompts yourself.
Step 1 — Ask Claude to write the prompt
Write me a Seedance 2.0 video prompt.
[Describe what should happen]
Duration: [e.g. 10 seconds]
Include detailed camera movements, lighting, and atmosphere.
Step 2 — If Claude says the prompt is too long
Make this prompt under 3000 characters, keep all key details.
📌 Steps 3–4: In Higgsfield
3.Copy everything starting from "Shot 1:" — skip Master Effects and Effects Density sections
4.Navigate to Seedance 2.0 → upload start frame (optional) → paste prompt → set duration → Generate
✗ Single-Shot

Generate each 2-second scene individually → inconsistent results, much more effort, worse quality.

✓ Multi-Shot

Claude writes one 15-second prompt with multiple scenes → Seedance handles cuts and transitions automatically.

Multi-shot template
Write a Seedance prompt for a 15-second video with 3–4 different shots/cuts.
Seedance should handle the transitions. [Describe the content]

Film yourself → AI picks up exactly where you left off → seamless transition. Works for portals, explosions, transformations, VFX overlays.

📌 Workflow
1.Record your video on your phone
2.Export the exact frame where the AI effect begins as a still image
3.Upload the still to Claude with the prompt below
4.Upload the still as Start Frame in Seedance → paste prompt → Generate
5.Place the AI video directly after your real footage in your editor
Prompt for real footage transition
Write a Seedance prompt where [DESCRIBE EFFECT] happens.
Make sure the start frame is IDENTICAL to the reference image provided.
Same lighting, same character position, same environment.
⚠ Problem: Seedance automatically adds music. With multiple scenes, the music won't be consistent between them.

Solution: Always specify "No music in the video. Sound design and ambient sounds only." — add music separately in CapCut or DaVinci Resolve.
Troubleshooting
06

Handle Errors

Content blocks and style drift are the two most common problems. Neither is permanent — here's exactly how to fix each one.

Sometimes Higgsfield rejects a generation. For images, credits are refunded. For videos, you may see "Rights Verification Required."

📌 Fix: Rights Verification Required
1.Open higgsfield.ai directly (not Claude)
2.Go to Video Generations
3.Find the entry with that status → click through and confirm
4.Back to Claude → reload the conversation → video now appears
Fix: Rejected Prompt
This generation was blocked. Please analyze the prompt, identify
which words or phrases likely caused the issue, rewrite the prompt
without those elements and try again.
Problem: After 3–4 scenes, images suddenly look different from the first ones.
Cause: Claude continued without an explicit style reference.
Fix: Restore Style Consistency
The style changed. Use image 2 as the visual style reference
for all remaining generations. Regenerate the ones that don't match.

The Marketing System

The complete 5-stage content factory. The Higgsfield Content Factory Skill controls everything from research to publishing — this is where real scale happens.

01
Research
Claude pulls live data from TikTok, Instagram, YouTube. Output: trend table, competitor analysis, hook patterns, 20 ready-made video ideas with full parameters.
02
Content Plan
Claude auto-creates a production calendar. For 100 videos: 100 rows, split across 5 formats, with date, format, and all parameters pre-filled. Zero clicks from you.
03
Generation
Claude generates in batches. Before each batch: "May I generate the next 20 videos?" — you stay in full control of your credits at all times.
04
Publishing
The skill connects to the Meta MCP. Videos get uploaded directly into your ad campaigns — no manual downloading or uploading.
05
Cost Analysis
Full credit breakdown. Calculate what the same scope would have cost traditionally and document your savings.

Build Your Own Skills

When you've produced a result you want to reproduce consistently — turn it into a skill. A skill is the recipe for Claude: without it, results vary every time.

📌 How to Build a Skill
1.Find your best result — look through all generated assets and pick your favorite
2.Copy the exact prompt from your tracking sheet
3.Let Claude write the skill — use the prompt below
4.Test it — open a new chat, call the skill, generate an asset, verify the style matches
5.Improve it — give Claude feedback on what you liked and didn't like
Step 3 — Create the Skill
This prompt above is my best result from Higgsfield Marketing Studio.
It was a Hypermotion-style product video – fast cuts, professional details.

Turn this into a skill and save it under .claude/skills/hypermotion-video.md

The skill should:
- Always reproduce this style
- Ask 1–2 clarifying questions before starting (model in video? UGC or product-only?)
- Avoid phrases that have caused content blocks in the past
Step 5 — Improve the Skill
You just generated 5 ads with this skill.
I like A, B, C. I don't like D, E.
Update the skill so future generations are more like A, B, C.
Note: After creating a skill, you may need to restart the app for it to appear in the slash-command menu.

Build a Tracking System

Without tracking you don't know which prompts worked, which videos were already generated, or what separates your best ads from your worst. The Status column is everything.

Send this to Claude
Look at all the assets we've generated in Higgsfield.
Create a Google Sheet using the GWS CLI with these tabs:

Tab 1 "Generations": Job ID, Product, Format, Type (image/video),
Model, Prompt, Result URL, Status, Date

Tab 2 "By Product": Overview per product

Tab 3 "Planning": Upcoming generations with Priority column
and Status column (Planned / In Progress / Done / Review)

Tab 4 "Performance": Space for Meta/TikTok data
⚠ Without this, automation generates things twice. The Status column is the only thing that tells automation what has already been done.

Set Up Automation

Routines are scheduled prompts. Claude executes them automatically — without you being present. Set them up once and your pipeline runs itself every week.

Sunday 8 PM — Planning Routine (Set Up Once)
Every Sunday at 8 PM:
1. Open the Google Sheet and analyze all past generations
2. Read the advertising knowledge file
3. Create 50 new generation ideas for the week
4. Add them to the sheet with Status "Planned"
Monday 6 AM — Production Routine (Set Up Once)
Every Monday at 6 AM:
1. Open the Google Sheet
2. Select 30 entries with Status "Planned" (highest priority first)
3. Build the prompts using the skill files
4. Generate all 30 via Higgsfield
5. Mark each as "Done" when the URL is returned
6. Save all Job IDs and result URLs in the sheet

Critical Mistakes
11

What NOT To Do

These mistakes come directly from documented real-world practice. Every single one has cost someone real money or real time.

01
Set All Permissions to "Always Allow"
Credits disappear without you noticing. Fix: Keep generation permissions on "Ask Permission" always.
02
Not Providing a Reference Image
Your product looks different in every video. Fix: Always include the reference image for every project.
03
Writing Short Prompts for Seedance
Lifeless, generic videos every time. Fix: Always let Claude write the prompts using the Seedance Skill.
04
Single-Shots Instead of Multi-Shot
More work, worse results, inconsistent style. Fix: Write one 15-second multi-shot prompt instead.
05
Leaving Music On in Multi-Scene Videos
Music is inconsistent between scenes. Fix: Always specify "no music," add it separately in post.
06
No Tracking System
Duplicate generations waste credits. Fix: Always maintain the Status column in your tracking sheet.
07
Never Using Higgsfield Directly First
You don't understand credit costs and make expensive mistakes. Fix: Spend 1–2 weeks in Higgsfield directly before adding Claude.
