Lightgen is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server: Generate and edit images and create short videos inside Claude. Prepaid credits, no subscription. In practice that means any MCP-compatible AI assistant can call Lightgen's tools directly — the model decides when to use them in a conversation or agent run.
It's a hosted (remote) server — point your client at https://lightgen.app/mcp and you're connected, with nothing to install locally. The current release is v1.0.1.
Lightgen is listed under Development on mcp.site and works with any MCP client — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed and the rest of the ecosystem — using the install snippets below.
