ClipAI

Overview

ClipAI is a Model Context Protocol server that transforms long-form videos into scored, captioned 9:16 clips ready for social platforms. By exposing its capabilities through MCP, it lets AI assistants call ClipAI's tools directly without manual context switching between applications.

The server runs locally via the npm package clipai-mcp, which communicates over stdio. You'll need to provide your CLIPAI_API_KEY as an environment variable to authenticate. The latest release is v0.2.2, available from https://clipai.online/mcp.

ClipAI is listed in the Development category on mcp.site and works with any MCP client, including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and Zed. Install it using npx -y clipai-mcp. If you maintain ClipAI, claim this listing to verify ownership and keep the information up to date.
