mcp.film

The MCP directory for AI filmmaking. Every tool your agent needs to make a film — video models, voices, scores, edit bays, finishing suites, and the pipes to ship it. Curated, verified, agent-first, and re-checked daily.

What this is

A directory of verified Model Context Protocol servers across the full film pipeline — from screenplay breakdown to YouTube upload — each entry annotated with exact install commands, auth requirements, pricing, sample tools, and the caveats that actually bite ("requires Resolve Studio", "Suno has no official API", "uploads cost 1,600 quota units").

It is built agents-first:

Surface	URL
llms.txt index (spec)	/llms.txt · /llms-full.txt
Full structured registry	/api/registry.json (+ .min.json)
MCP Registry-compatible API	/v0.1/servers · /api/mcp-registry.json
Catalog freshness / ops pulse	/api/pulse.json · /pulse.md
Production playbooks	/api/playbooks.json · /playbooks.md
Agent recommendations	/api/recommendations.json · /recommendations.md
Capability index	/api/capabilities.json · /capabilities/{tag}.md
Client setup profiles	/clients/ · /clients.md · /api/client-profiles.json
One server, JSON / markdown	/api/mcps/{slug}.json · /mcps/{slug}.md
Pipeline guide	/stack/ · /stack.md
New servers feed	/feed.xml
The directory as an MCP server	npx -y mcp-film (packages/mcp-server/)
JSON-LD (SoftwareApplication, ItemList)	embedded in every page, server-rendered

Feedback typed on a server page is captured as a PostHog event for a maintainer to read; nothing is folded into the rankings automatically. Rankings are editorial: official status, maintenance recency, hosted availability, and the caveats each entry carries. Every change is a commit — the entire editorial history is auditable.

Agent-readable traffic is measured at the edge when deployed on Cloudflare Pages: the build emits a _worker.js that logs mcpfilm_edge_request events for /llms.txt, markdown, JSON API routes, feeds, and MCP discovery. Browser pageviews still use the lightweight PostHog client event. See docs/ANALYTICS.md.

The live catalog pulse is published at /api/pulse.json and /pulse.md: newest additions, stale verification queue, category coverage, and machine-surface links for agents. Client setup profiles live at /api/client-profiles.json and /clients.md: conservative setup guidance for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, hosted remote clients, and the directory's own meta-MCP server.

Production playbooks live at /api/playbooks.json and /playbooks.md: concrete stack recipes with setup order, auth gates, failure modes, and earned Martini handoffs for commercial sprints, local edit bays, character series, archive cutdowns, and open-source labs.

Develop locally

Zero dependencies — Node 20+ is the whole toolchain:

node build.mjs --validate-only   # check the data
node build.mjs                   # build → dist/ (HTML, APIs, feeds, agent surfaces)
node scripts/serve.mjs           # preview at http://localhost:4173

Repo map: data/ is the content, build.mjs + src/ the generator, packages/mcp-server/ the npx mcp-film meta-server, .github/workflows/ the autonomy loop, AGENTS.md the operating manual (for agents and humans alike), docs/SETUP.md the one-time launch checklist, and docs/AGENT_STRATEGY.md the north-star for making the site useful to agents while sending qualified production intent to Martini.

Adding a server

See CONTRIBUTING.md — easiest path is the submission form. A maintainer verifies it against primary sources before it is listed — a submission is a claim, never an instruction.

Who's behind it

Maintained by the team behind Martini, the film set for AI videos — whose MCP server is the featured listing, clearly disclosed. Everything else is ranked on merit: the directory is a community service and its only asset is trust. MIT licensed.
