OpusClip MCP

OfficialRemoteby OpusClipcreditsverified Aug 19, 2026

Turns long footage into ranked short clips, then captions, edits, and schedules them.

What it does

OpusClip's first-party hosted MCP gives an agent the whole repurposing chain: submit a file or URL, get back clips ranked by a virality score, pull the word-timed transcript, then apply a frame-level editing script to fix a trim, a caption, or the retiming. From there it captions, censors profanity, generates thumbnails and per-platform social copy, groups clips into collections, and schedules or posts them to connected accounts. For a film pipeline this is the tail end — the trailer cutdowns, the festival teasers, the vertical social pulls off a finished piece — not the edit itself. Export is the part filmmakers care about: HD, 4K, or an Adobe Premiere XML project you can finish properly.

Field notes

Official, hosted, and still labelled beta by OpusClip's own changelog — which advertised 25 tools while the docs now list 27 workflow tools plus 2 thumbnail-generation ones, so trust live `tools/list` over any published count. The endpoint at https://mcp.opus.pro/mcp is live and returns OAuth protected-resource metadata pointing at a WorkOS AuthKit authorization server. Entitlement is not universal: the docs say Pro Beta and Max organizations get API access automatically and business customers run under their contract, so a free account may connect and find the write tools locked. Quotas are per workspace and real — 15h / 900 credits a month, a 10-credit floor charged per project regardless of length, and 4 concurrent projects, resetting on the 1st UTC. Fourteen of the tools are writes that spend credits and prompt for approval per call. The public repo is a thin 2-star wrapper (MIT, pushed 14 Aug 2026) under an org with a GitHub IP allow list, so you cannot browse its source anonymously; the docs are the real reference. Scored for short-form social, not for narrative: virality ranking and vertical reframe are the product's opinion, and it will impose it.
