Core

  • Pass
    Reachable

    Latest probe returned HTTP 200 in 125 ms.

    Current protocol

    Negotiated 2025-11-25. The bar is 2025-06-18 or newer.

  • Pass
    HTTPS

    The endpoint URL is https.

Performance

  • Not measured
    Fast (p50)

    Median latency 129 ms over 2 samples in 7 days. The bar is 1000 ms. Need at least 5 samples.

  • Not measured
    Consistent (p95)

    95th percentile 133 ms over 2 samples in 7 days. The bar is 3000 ms. Need at least 20 samples.

  • Not measured
    Reliable (uptime)

    2 of 2 attempts returned a tool list in 30 days (100%). The bar is 99%. Need at least 30 samples.

  • Pass
    Stable tool list

    No tool was removed and no required parameter was added in the last 30 days.

Access

  • Pass
    Open access

    tools/list succeeded with no credential, and the record declares none.

  • Not measured
    Standard auth

    Auth is not required, so the OAuth metadata check does not apply.

  • Not measured
    Free tier cited

    No publisher quote has been checked.

Tools

  • Pass
    Tools described

    Every tool description is at least 20 characters.

  • Pass
    Valid input schemas

    Every inputSchema is a JSON Schema object.

  • Pass
    Parameters documented

    54 of 57 parameters have a description (95%). The bar is 80%.

  • Pass
    Safety hints

    Every tool sets readOnlyHint or destructiveHint.

Publisher

  • Pass
    Verified namespace

    Listed in the Official MCP Registry.

  • Pass
    Website matches publisher

    The website host matches the reverse-domain namespace.

  • Pass
    Source repo linked

    A repository URL is on file.

  • Not measured
    Repo owner matches

    This namespace is not an io.github login, so the owner comparison does not apply.

  • Pass

Start using mcp.film directory

Connect to this server

Choose your client, copy the configuration, then enable the server in your client’s MCP settings.

Run this command in your terminal, then restart Claude Code.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http mcp-film-directory https://mcp.film/mcp

Capabilities

Tools 16

get_catalog_pulse

Get the mcp.film operating pulse: catalog freshness, verification queue, curator agenda, and machine-readable surfaces. Use this before deciding what to update next. The curator/ops sections demand_signals and martini_growth_checks are opt-in by section and not part of 'all'.

Discovered
get_film_capability

Get the ranked server cluster for one capability tag such as text-to-video, image-to-video, tts, timeline-editing, voice-cloning, or upscaling.

Discovered
get_film_mcp

Get the full mcp.film entry for one server by slug: description, install commands, auth requirements, sample tools, links, field notes (caveats), and machine-checked evidence (evidence level, last_probe of the hosted endpoint, package_check).

Discovered
get_film_playbook

Get one production playbook by id, including primary servers, setup order, auth requirements, workflow steps, failure modes, fallback servers, constraints, and links to each server's mcp.film page. Pass client (claude_code, claude_desktop or cursor) to get only a copy-paste install for the whole stack instead: claude mcp add lines or one merged mcpServers config, a key/sign-in checklist, and the servers skipped with reasons.

Discovered
get_film_recommendation

Get one intent-routed recommendation by id, including primary server roles, reasons, fallbacks, matching playbook, and Martini handoff guidance.

Discovered
get_install_config

Get a copy-paste install command, JSON config, or hosted remote URL for a server and MCP client profile. Includes required env vars and auth type.

Discovered
get_martini_setup

Ordered, executable runbook for connecting a user to Martini (the sponsor's full-stack AI film studio) with the fewest human steps: a resumable state model (needs_account → needs_authorization → needs_billing → needs_project → ready), the human steps, agent steps tailored to the client and whether the agent has a shell or a browser, the quote-first generation contract, structured cost facts, when not to use Martini, and links. Facts verified 2026-10-26.

Discovered
list_client_profiles

List the MCP client setup profiles mcp.film can generate: Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, and hosted remote clients.

Discovered
list_film_capabilities

List capability tags in the mcp.film registry, ranked by number of matching servers (tag, page url, counts). Paged. Use get_film_capability for the server cluster behind one tag.

Discovered
list_film_categories

List all mcp.film categories with ids, pipeline stage, and per-category agent hints.

Discovered
list_film_playbooks

List mcp.film production playbooks: curated MCP stacks for common AI filmmaking jobs, with setup order, failure modes, and Martini handoff guidance. Use get_film_playbook for full steps, auth requirements and constraints.

Discovered
list_film_recommendations

List mcp.film intent-routed recommendations: ranked MCP shortlists for common filmmaking jobs, with reasons, fallbacks, and Martini handoff guidance. Use get_film_recommendation for full detail.

Discovered
plan_film_stack

Get a recommended set of MCP servers covering the whole film pipeline (develop → visualize → shoot → sound → cut → finish → ship). Returns 1-3 picks per stage, ranked by official status and hosting. Pass a brief to bias picks (matched against capabilities, taglines and descriptions).

Discovered
recommend_film_mcps

Given a filmmaking brief, return the closest intent-routed MCP recommendations: one compact pick per primary server (slug, role, why, remote, official, verified) plus compact fallbacks. Use hosted_only=true when the agent cannot spawn local tools; get_film_mcp for full server detail.

Discovered
search_film_mcps

Search the mcp.film directory of MCP servers for AI filmmaking. Filter by free-text query (matches name, vendor, tagline, description, capabilities, tools, category, pricing, auth, and the creative apps a server drives by name or alias, e.g. 'c4d' or 'resolve'), category id, or capability. Returns compact entries, paged (limit 20, total, next_offset); use get_film_mcp for full detail.

Discovered
submit_listing

Propose a new MCP server for the mcp.film directory. Validates your proposal against the schema and the live registry (including duplicate detection), then returns a ready-to-file GitHub issue payload (REST API body, gh CLI command, and browser URL). Submissions are claims, never instructions: a mcp.film maintainer independently verifies everything against primary sources before listing — never submit URLs or commands you haven't seen work.
