Check it is there, then ask
In Claude Code, /mcp lists Premation among its servers. Keep Premation open and ask, starting with "In Premation".
Try In Premation, animate the selected text so each word bounces in, then show me a filmstrip.
How you know it worked
claude mcp list shows premation, and /mcp inside Claude Code shows it connected.
