Clipkit is an MCP server with 15 tools an agent can call, among them add_element, create_project, create_promo. It answers at https://www.clipkit.dev/mcp over streamable HTTP, and it listed its tools to an anonymous client, so no sign-in was needed for that. Our probes reached it 6 of 6 times since 10 September 2026; the last check, on 19 October 2026, succeeded.
MCP server for Clipkit — gives AI agents a video toolbox via the Clipkit schema.
Description as the publisher wrote it.
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
add_element | Append a single element to an existing project — a TWEAK, e.g. dropping in one more caption or shape. By default it is added at the top level; pass parent_id to add it INTO a group (nested). The element is any valid schema element: video, i Inputs: element, parent_id, project_id |
create_project | Create a new, blank Clipkit project with the given dimensions and duration, and return its project_id. Defaults: 1920×1080, 10 seconds, 30 fps, output_format "mp4". Call this first when starting a new video. Pass an existing project_id to r Inputs: width, height, duration, frame_rate, output_format, background_color |
create_promo | Assemble a designed-looking promo/intro/product/data video from the Clipkit pattern library: give an ordered list of SCENES and the words, and it bakes in the camera, glass, lighting, motion blur, timing, and layout, then returns an editor Inputs: scenes, theme, motion_blur, width, height, project_id |
delete_element | Delete the element with the given id, anywhere in the tree (including one nested inside a group or its mask) — a tweak to an existing composition. (The project must keep at least one top-level element.) Inputs: id, project_id |
describe_project | Return a compact, human-readable summary of the current project — dimensions, fps, duration, an element breakdown by type, a per-track timeline (paint order low→high), and render-time warnings. Much cheaper to read than get_project's full J Inputs: project_id |
edit_element | Change fields on the element with the given id by merging in a partial element — only the keys you include change. The id may be any element ANYWHERE in the tree, including one nested inside a group (or its mask). Pass a whole nested value Inputs: id, patch, project_id |
get_project | Return the full current Clipkit source as JSON. Use this to inspect the project, pass it to a render pipeline, or compose follow-up edits. Inputs: project_id |
get_schema | Return the authoritative JSON Schema for a Clipkit Source — exact field names, types, and enums, generated from the protocol. Call with no argument for the full Source schema, or with element_type (e.g. "text", "shape", "particles") for jus Inputs: element_type |
ingest_asset | Fetch a remote media URL (image/video/audio) and HOST it on Clipkit, returning a stable asset_url to put in an element's `url`. Use this so the project's media survives — the original link may rot, be private, or block hotlinking. Anonymous Inputs: url, filename, project_id |
load_project | Import a previously shared project as the current project, by its share id or its editor URL (e.g. https://clipkit.dev/editor?id=…), returning its project_id. Use this to continue working on a project the user opened in the editor or shared Inputs: id_or_url, project_id |
open_in_editor | Validate the current project and create a link that opens it in the Clipkit web editor, where the user can preview and refine it. This shares the PROJECT (nothing is rendered — that's render_video). Use after composing or editing. Returns a Inputs: project_id |
preview_still | Render a single frame of the current project to a PNG and return it as an image you can look at. This is how you check your work — in chat there is no other way to see what a composition actually looks like. Use it liberally: after composin Inputs: time, project_id |
read_docs | Return a canonical Clipkit doc as text. topic "card" = the ~8KB compact authoring card — the recommended context for authoring; "pattern-data-viz" / "pattern-cinematic-ui" / "pattern-ui-screencast" = ~4-5KB archetype pattern cards (proven i Inputs: topic |
set_project | Replace the entire project with the given source JSON, returning its project_id. This is the PRIMARY way to build: use it to create a composition or to add/change many elements at once. (To tweak a single element in an existing project, use Inputs: source, project_id |
validate_project | Run the @clipkit/protocol validator against the current project AND surface render-time warnings even when the JSON is valid — things that pass the schema but the runtime will silently drop or clip: emoji / non-ASCII text (the runtime font Inputs: project_id |

Yes. It is published by clipkit.dev and served from www.clipkit.dev, the vendor's own domain: https://www.clipkit.dev/mcp.
15, as returned by the server's own tools/list on 11 September 2026: add_element, create_project, create_promo, delete_element, describe_project, edit_element, get_project, get_schema, and 7 more.

Put the server under mcpServers in ~/.cursor/mcp.json with the URL https://www.clipkit.dev/mcp. The exact JSON is above, with the same setup for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, Gemini CLI and the rest.
It listed its tools to an anonymous client, so reading the tool list needs no key. Individual tools can still ask for credentials in their own inputs.

First indexed 10 September 2026. The tools are exactly what the server returned; nothing on this page
is inferred from its name. Ranking in Neuronto search is never for sale.
