In plain English

mcp.film is a curated directory of Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers covering the full AI filmmaking pipeline, from screenplay breakdown to YouTube upload. MCP is a standard that lets AI assistants connect to external tools and services. This directory helps filmmakers and developers find verified servers for video generation, voice synthesis, music scoring, editing, and distribution, with each listing annotated with install commands, authentication requirements, pricing notes, and known limitations. The directory is built to be read by AI agents as well as people. It publishes an llms.txt index, a full JSON registry, and an MCP-compatible API endpoint so that an AI assistant can query the catalog directly. The entire directory is also installable as an MCP server itself, meaning you can add it to Claude or another assistant and let the assistant browse and recommend tools from within a conversation. Day-to-day maintenance is largely automated. GitHub Actions run daily to verify links and search for new servers. A separate workflow handles community submissions through a GitHub issue form, using a Claude agent to triage and verify new entries. Data changes that pass validation merge automatically, only changes outside the data directory require human review. Community ratings collected from the live site feed back into the rankings weekly. The production playbooks section provides concrete stack recipes for common filmmaking scenarios, such as a commercial sprint or a character video series, including the setup order, authentication steps, and known failure modes. Client setup profiles give configuration guidance for tools like Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and Cursor. The project is MIT licensed and maintained by the team behind Martini, an AI video platform. The README discloses that Martini is the featured listing and states that all other tools are ranked on merit.

Copy-paste prompts

Prompt 1
I've added mcp-film as an MCP server to Claude. Ask it: what MCP servers are available for AI video generation, and which ones have no official API according to the directory?
Prompt 2
Using the mcp.film /api/registry.json endpoint, write JavaScript code to list all servers tagged with video generation and print their pricing notes.
Prompt 3
What production playbooks does mcp.film recommend for a character video series? What tools should I set up and in what order?
Prompt 4
How do I contribute a new MCP server to mcp.film? Walk me through the issue submission form, what the Claude triage agent checks, and how auto-merge works.
