OpusClip MCP server for Model Context Protocol hosts. Turn long-form videos into short clips, manage projects, collections, censor jobs, and scheduled social posts through the OpusClip API.

Requirements

• Node.js 20+
• npm
• An OpusClip API key (https://app.opus.pro/settings/integration-tokens)

One-click install

After clicking the button, your host will prompt you to fill: OPUS_API_KEY, OPUS_API_TIMEOUT_MS, OPUS_UPLOAD_TIMEOUT_MS, OPUS_BRIDGE_TIMEOUT_MS.

Quick Start

Install & build

cd <path-to-repo>/connectors/opus-video-clip
npm install
npm run build

npx (once published)

npx -y @mindstone/mcp-server-opus-video-clip

Local

node dist/index.js

Configuration

Environment variables

• OPUS_API_KEY — OpusClip API key
• MCP_HOST_BRIDGE_STATE — optional path to a host bridge state file used for credential management
• MINDSTONE_REBEL_BRIDGE_STATE — backwards-compatible alias for MCP_HOST_BRIDGE_STATE
• OPUS_API_TIMEOUT_MS — outbound HTTP timeout for general Opus API calls (default 120000 ms, max 30 min)
• OPUS_UPLOAD_TIMEOUT_MS — per-chunk HTTP timeout for GCS resumable upload (default 600000 ms, max 30 min)
• OPUS_BRIDGE_TIMEOUT_MS — HTTP timeout for the optional host-app bridge (default 30000 ms, max 30 min)
• MCP_WORKSPACE_PATH — workspace directory for local-file access (see below)

Local-file sandbox

opus_upload_video (reads) and opus_download_clip (writes) are confined to a workspace sandbox: MCP_WORKSPACE_PATH when set, otherwise the system temp directory. Paths outside the sandbox — including .. traversal and symlinks that escape it — are refused. Place source videos inside the workspace (or temp) directory before uploading, and pick download targets inside it.
