What is the Distribea MCP server?

Distribea MCP server is a hosted integration for AI assistants that speak the Model Context Protocol. On-brand, style-locked website imagery from the hosted Distribea engine (subscription key).

What you get

distribea image "founder portrait, soft daylight" --portrait distribea video "slow waves rolling at golden hour" --landscape distribea music "warm lo-fi beat, mellow, 90 bpm" distribea voice "Welcome to our store." --lang en ```

Most AI media tools hand you a raw model and a blank prompt box, in a browser tab, one image at a time. Distribea is the layer above that — and it lives where you build.

What the assistant can call

Once Distribea is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:

  • bring_alive — Make an existing site feel alive: add images where sections have none and replace stock/old pictures on-brand (free proposal first, reversible)
  • generate_image — One on-brand image (auto-switches to UGC selfie mode for review avatars)
  • generate_with_model — Standalone image with a chosen model + settings, downloaded as a native png/jpg
  • generate_video — Standalone video with a chosen model, downloaded as a native mp4
  • generate_music — Standalone music track, downloaded as mp3
  • generate_voice — Standalone voice-over (text-to-speech), downloaded as mp3
  • edit_image — Retouch, redo, remove background, upscale ×4, extend
  • blog_cover — Generate an on-brand cover image for a blog article
  • site_style — Lock, refine or anchor the site's visual identity
  • brand_pack — Logo, favicon pack and og:image in one call
  • create_reference — Lock a recurring character (real photo supported) or product
  • finish_images — Fix missing ALT texts and convert heavy images to WebP (free)

Configuration and credentials

You will need one environment variable: DISTRIBEA_MCP_KEY. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.

Setting it up

Being a remote server, there is no local install. You register the endpoint with your client, authorise it once, and the tools appear.

Choosing this one

This sits in the payments and commerce group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. Distribea's toolset — bring_alive, generate_image, generate_with_model and 10 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by Distribea; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

This entry was verified against Distribea's own documentation before publication; SyncDev keeps the directory reviewed rather than auto-generated.

Before you rely on it

  • Your data travels to the provider's service, so the usual questions apply about what you send and what they retain.
  • With 13 tools registered it takes up a noticeable share of the context window; turn it off in projects that never touch Distribea.
  • Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients — if no tools show up, check the environment block first.
  • MCP clients confirm each tool call by default. Leave that on until you have watched what the distribea mcp server does with a few real requests.

Frequently asked questions

It connects Distribea to MCP-compatible AI assistants such as Claude and Cursor, exposing 13 tools (bring_alive, generate_image, generate_with_model, and more) that the assistant can call on your behalf. Instead of copying data back and forth by hand, the assistant works with Distribea directly.
