Local-first FFmpeg tools, Video Receipts, quality gates, Hyperframes, and Shorts/Reels repurposing — for Claude Code, Cursor, and any MCP client.
MCP Video MCP server exists for a simple reason — assistants are far more useful when they can act on MCP Video directly instead of describing what you should do. Local-first FFmpeg tools, Video Receipts, quality gates, Hyperframes, and Shorts/Reels repurposing — for Claude Code, Cursor, and any MCP client. Free, Apache-2.0. Formerly mcp-video.
Being a remote server, there is no local install. You register the endpoint with your client, authorise it once, and the tools appear.
Once MCP Video is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:
Agent — driven media in CI** — repeatable edits from Claude Code, Cursor, Codex-style clients, or scriptsSurface — TipYou will need one environment variable: GOLDEN_PATH. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.
Among the developer tooling options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. MCP Video's toolset — Agent, Surface — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by kyanitelabs; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.
