Common questions

Is Clip Studio MCP safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.0) reached the registry 2 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

Clip Studio MCP

Hosted Model Context Protocol server for Clip Studio. Add one URL to Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, or any MCP client and use the same public Clip Studio products a signed-in human already has — Video Lab, Topic Shorts, Talking Shorts, Ad Studio, Last Frame, Image Lab, Audio Lab, Story, Ad Lab, library, and free tools — on the same plan as the website.

Endpoint: https://clipstudio.ai/api/mcp Transport: Streamable HTTP Marketing: https://clipstudio.ai/mcp Public tool list: https://clipstudio.ai/mcp.md Repository: https://github.com/j-acks0n/clipstudio-mcp Smithery: https://smithery.ai/servers/clipstudioai/clipstudio

This repo is a connector listing (server.json, install snippets, examples). The server is hosted. There is nothing to clone and run.

Quick start

Paste the URL. Leave OAuth client id empty. Sign in when the client opens Clip Studio, then Approve.

Claude Desktop / Claude.ai connectors

Customize → Connectors → Add custom connector. Paste:

https://clipstudio.ai/api/mcp

Connect. Leave OAuth client id empty.

Cursor

Add an HTTP MCP server in ~/.cursor/mcp.json. Cursor runs OAuth on first use.

"mcpServers": { "clipstudio": { "url": "https://clipstudio.ai/api/mcp" } } }

ChatGPT (developer mode connector)

Enable developer mode, add a custom MCP connector, paste https://clipstudio.ai/api/mcp, then complete Clip Studio Approve.

Windsurf

Edit ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json (remote field is serverUrl):

"mcpServers": { "clipstudio": { "serverUrl": "https://clipstudio.ai/api/mcp" } } }

Save, then refresh MCP in Cascade.

VS Code / Copilot

User or workspace mcp.json:

"servers": { "clipstudio": { "type": "http", "url": "https://clipstudio.ai/api/mcp" } } }

Command Palette → MCP: Open User Configuration, or .vscode/mcp.json in a workspace.

Stdio-only clients

Bridge to Streamable HTTP:

npx -y mcp-remote https://clipstudio.ai/api/mcp

Example wrapper:

"mcpServers": { "clipstudio": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://clipstudio.ai/api/mcp"] } } }

Authentication

One-click OAuth on the first call. Unauthenticated requests — including initialize and tools/list — return HTTP 401 with WWW-Authenticate and protected-resource metadata. The client dynamically registers (OAuth 2.1 + PKCE, public client). You sign in with the Clip Studio account and Approve. Tokens stay on the client.

No client id to paste. If a human cannot do the job on clipstudio.ai, the agent cannot do it here.

How a paid job works

Quote (quote_*). Does not generate.
If the monthly generation allowance cannot cover the quote, the tool returns HTTP 402 with numeric JSON fields (names only — these are API keys, not UI copy):

"requiredCredits": 120, "availableCredits": 0 }

Then call create_checkout_url with a priceId from get_account.offerCheckout. It returns a Stripe Checkout URL and does not take card data.

Generate (generate_* / start_last_frame / render_storyboard / …). Uses this month’s generation allowance.
Poll the matching get_* tool until the job finishes.

Submit and poll. Do not hold the MCP request for a full provider render.

Example prompts

Preview a 15-second Topic Short about why most morning routines fail, then quote and generate it.
List Video Lab models, quote an 8-second 16:9 clip of a running shoe on a wet track, generate, and poll until it is ready.
Continue my story: load the latest project, write the next part, then render it.
Check my remaining monthly generation allowance. If a quote returns 402, open checkout from offerCheckout.
Research an Ad Studio clip from this product URL, pick a catalog creator, quote, generate, and poll.

Walkthroughs: examples/.
