Glif MCP Server
Glif is a media-generation agent: generate images, video, and audio, transcribe, render HTML, search the web, run code, and chain multi-step media operations — from any MCP client.
- Endpoint: https://glif.app/api/mcp (Streamable HTTP, JSON-RPC 2.0)
- Auth: OAuth 2.1 with dynamic client registration — sign in with your Glif account, no API keys
- Install page with one-click buttons: https://glif.app/mcp
- Docs for agents: https://glif.app/llms.txt
This repo holds the registry metadata for the hosted server (see server.json); the server itself is part of the glif.app platform and is not open source.
[!NOTE]
Looking for the old locally-run stdio server (npm @glifxyz/glif-mcp-server)? It's deprecated — the code is parked on the legacy-local-server branch.
Tools
composeproject does the work — describe what you want in plain language, including a whole series of variations, and Glif picks the models and chains the steps. It returns a jobid immediately; poll getjobstatus for the media, which comes back as resource_link blocks pointing at CDN URLs. The rest are read and upload helpers. Call tools/list for the authoritative set, or see https://glif.app/mcp.
Generation spends credits from the signed-in Glif account; read-only tools are free. See https://glif.app/pricing.
