Runway MCP

What it does

Runway's hosted MCP server connects agents like Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor to Runway's full generation stack. As of August 2026 the marketing page lists Gen-4.5, Gen-4 Turbo, Gen-4 Image, Seedance 2.0, Kling 3.0, Veo 3.1, GPT Image 2 and Nano Banana Pro, routed by plan, making it a one-stop video tool for filmmaker agents with automatic task polling and media URL delivery.

Field notes

Hosted server (OAuth, no API key, bills Runway credits) is the flagship; an open-source repo exists for self-hosting and was last pushed 2026-08-10. Runway has moved its web presence from runwayml.com to runway.com — the old host 308s across, and the mcp.runwayml.com endpoint still answers (401 unauthenticated). The Zendesk help article blocks scripted fetches; open it in a browser. Generated asset URLs from the API expire after 24h — download outputs promptly.
