From the project's README
As published by EmpirioLabs-AI/mcp in README.md.
Remote Model Context Protocol server for EmpirioLabs AI. It lets any MCP client run the whole platform as tools: chat with more than 180 text and multimodal models, generate images, video, music, speech, 3D assets and transcripts, run web search and research with citations, start long-running agent tasks, submit batch jobs, deploy and manage GPU Cloud instances, clusters and volumes, and create hosted agents. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install.
| Server URL | https://mcp.empiriolabs.ai/mcp (Streamable HTTP) |
| Authentication | OAuth 2.1 (sign in with your EmpirioLabs account) or an EmpirioLabs API key as a bearer token |
| Registry name | ai.empiriolabs/mcp in the official MCP Registry |
| Documentation | https://docs.empiriolabs.ai/mcp |
| Support | support@empiriolabs.ai |
Every model and feature EmpirioLabs adds is available here as it launches, at the same final prices and limits as the API. Connections use your prepaid credits, and you can disconnect any app under Settings in the dashboard.
Connect
Claude (web, desktop, mobile)
- Open Settings, then Connectors, and choose Add custom connector.
- Enter
https://mcp.empiriolabs.ai/mcpas the URL. Leave the OAuth client fields empty. - Click Connect, sign in to EmpirioLabs, review the request, and choose Allow access.
Claude Code:
claude mcp add --transport http empiriolabs https://mcp.empiriolabs.ai/mcp
Run /mcp inside Claude Code to complete the sign-in the first time.
ChatGPT
- Open Settings, then Plugins, and turn on Developer mode.
- Choose Create app, enter
https://mcp.empiriolabs.ai/mcpas the server URL with OAuth authentication, and create it. - Finish the sign-in and choose Allow access. The server also provides the
searchandfetchtools ChatGPT uses for connectors, so it works in chat and in deep research.
Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Cline and other editors
Remote servers are configured with a URL. Sign in through OAuth when the editor prompts, or add an API key header:
{
"mcpServers": {
"empiriolabs": {
"url": "https://mcp.empiriolabs.ai/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer sk-empiriolabs-your_key_here"
}
}
}
}
VS Code reads the same shape from .vscode/mcp.json with a servers key and "type": "http". Codex CLI: codex mcp add empiriolabs --url https://mcp.empiriolabs.ai/mcp. Gemini CLI and Windsurf accept the JSON block above in their MCP settings. Cline: see llms-install.md.
Any HTTP client
The server speaks JSON-RPC over POST https://mcp.empiriolabs.ai/mcp. Send Authorization: Bearer <API key or OAuth access token> and Accept: application/json, text/event-stream on every request.
curl "https://mcp.empiriolabs.ai/mcp" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $EMPIRIOLABS_API_KEY" \
-H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"list_models","arguments":{"modality":"image","limit":5}}}'

Profiles
Profiles expose a subset of toolsets at a shorter URL:
| URL | Toolsets |
|---|---|
https://mcp.empiriolabs.ai/mcp | all |
https://mcp.empiriolabs.ai/mcp/inference | models, text, search, jobs, account |
https://mcp.empiriolabs.ai/mcp/media | models, media, jobs, account |
https://mcp.empiriolabs.ai/mcp/cloud | models, account, gpu, hosted_agents |

Combine toolsets with +, for example https://mcp.empiriolabs.ai/mcp/models+text+jobs.
Access and privacy
- Read-only tools (catalog, jobs, usage) use no credits. Tools that run models, searches, agent tasks, batches or infrastructure use the prepaid credits of the connected account.
- OAuth connections are listed under Settings > Connected applications in the dashboard, where Disconnect ends access right away.
- Privacy policy and terms of service.
