Common questions
Is Shade safe?
It passed 0 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 (0.3.0) reached the registry 4 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?
In the same category: Context7, Codebase Memory, Exa

Shade MCP
Shade MCP connects AI assistants to the creative assets in your Shade workspace. It can search and browse drives, inspect assets and transcripts, manage files and metadata, curate collections and views, add comments, create share links, work with custom objects, and manage automations.
Connect
The production Streamable HTTP endpoint is:
https://mcp.shade.inc/mcpShade uses OAuth. Your MCP client opens Shade sign-in when you connect.
Watch the production MCP reviewer walkthrough for a concise connection, search, asset-inspection, preview, and safety demo.
Cursor
Install the Shade plugin from the Cursor Marketplace, or add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:
{"mcpServers": { "shade": { "url": "https://mcp.shade.inc/mcp" } } }
Codex
The marketplace-ready Codex package is in plugins/shade and depends on the reviewed Shade app. For a direct custom connection, add this to ~/.codex/config.toml:
[mcp_servers.shade]url = "https://mcp.shade.inc/mcp"
Then run:
codex mcp login shadeClaude
Open Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector, name it Shade, and enter https://mcp.shade.inc/mcp.
GitHub Copilot CLI
copilot mcp add --transport http shade https://mcp.shade.inc/mcpChatGPT
In ChatGPT settings, enable Developer mode under Connectors, create a connector named Shade, and use https://mcp.shade.inc/mcp.
Example prompts
- “Find five clips showing a person eating pizza.”
- “Summarize this video and show representative preview frames.”
- “Browse the project folder and identify the latest graded exports.”
- “Show the configured approval metadata and the value on this asset.”
- “Create a review collection and add these selected assets.”
Security and privacy
Shade MCP only accesses workspaces and drives available to the authenticated Shade user. Mutating tools require the host's normal approval flow. See the Shade Privacy Policy, Terms of Service, and security and legal overview.
