Replicate MCP Server

OfficialRemoteby Replicatepaidverified Aug 23, 2026

Official remote MCP for discovering and running thousands of models on Replicate.

What it does

Replicate's official MCP server (remote, plus a self-hostable npm package generated from their HTTP API) lets agents search, compare and run any Replicate model — Veo, Kling, Wan, FLUX, SDXL, LTX and more. Experimental 'code mode' lets the model write sandboxed TypeScript against the Replicate SDK for faster multi-step chains.

Field notes

Both remote paths are live and OAuth-gated — /sse and /mcp each answer 401, and /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource points the client at https://mcp.replicate.com/. The docs no longer print either path: they now name the bare host and give copy-paste config only for the stdio npm package, with `claude mcp add "replicate-code-mode" --scope user --transport stdio -- npx -y replicate-mcp@alpha --tools=code` as the one Claude Code command on the page (code mode also needs Deno installed). Caveat: `latest` on npm is still 0.9.0 while all real work ships on the alpha track, now at 2.0.0-alpha.74, so the unpinned `npx -y replicate-mcp` most guides show installs a year-old build. The code-mode demo repo (4 stars) has not been pushed since Nov 17 2025; Replicate says it is working with Stainless to fold code mode into the remote server. Prefer the remote server. Also a strong route to upscalers (Real-ESRGAN, Topaz-style models) with no first-party MCP. Tool names are generated from the HTTP API surface (models.search, predictions.create) rather than a fixed published list.
