Show It Works MCP server

Show It Works is a remote MCP server that gives an AI agent 7 tools, among them complete_video_upload, create_video_upload, delete_video. It answers at https://showitworks.app/api/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 4 of 4 times since 23 September 2026; the last check, on 6 November 2026, succeeded.

Description as the publisher wrote it.

The 7 tools Show It Works offers

Tool	What it does
`complete_video_upload`	Publish a pending recording after its direct upload finishes. Call only after create_video_upload and a successful PUT of the entire file to the returned upload URL; this tool does not upload bytes. Requires a project API key with video.upl Inputs: videoId
`create_video_upload`	Write title, taskName, ownerContext and publicContext in English (code en, locale en-US) — this project's language — and follow that locale for dates and numbers. The answer says so when what you sent is not in it. Leave code, identifiers, Inputs: title, filename, mimeType, byteSize, worktreeName, workspaceName
`delete_video`	Permanently delete a recording. Inputs: videoId
`get_video_link`	Get a public link for a ready recording, with the retainUntil deadline after which the link stops working. Report the expiry alongside the link. Inputs: videoId
`list_tasks`	List the task names already used in this API key's project, so you can reuse an existing one instead of inventing a near-duplicate. Copy `taskName` verbatim into `create_video_upload`. Names are folded case-insensitively and on whitespace, Inputs: query, taskName, mine, createdAfter, createdBefore, limit
`list_videos`	List the recordings in this API key's project, including dashboard reviewer comments and viewed status. Expired recordings are omitted; each row's retainUntil is when that recording and its public link are deleted, and firstViewedAt is when
`search_videos`	Find recordings in this API key's project by meaning as well as by wording — describe what the session was about, or name a task, and the closest recordings come back ranked. Use it before inventing a new TASK value, to find the recordings Inputs: query, taskName, mine, createdAfter, createdBefore, limit
