Clipkit MCP Server

The video infra for agents. ClipKit turns a JSON timeline - the open ClipKit Protocol - into rendered video on the GPU. Describe a video as structured data; get an MP4. Built for AI agents and the developers shipping them. It is available as a remote MCP endpoint.

Teams that want a hosted media endpoint instead of running a local process. The project is written in TypeScript.
