Generate images, video, and audio with Glif's media-generation agent
Overview
Glif is a hosted creative agent that lets an assistant generate images, video and audio, and run multi-step media jobs, from plain-language briefs.
- What you can do
- Generate media: describe an image, video, audio clip or a whole series of variations and receive a job ID and project link to track it. Check jobs: follow a running generation and retrieve the resulting media links. Manage projects: reopen saved work, add variations or follow-ups, and upload reference files. Account: check the connected Glif account and its credit balance.
- When to use it
- Useful when you want an assistant to produce or edit visual and audio assets — hero images, icons, promo screenshots, demo videos, music or voiceover — without wiring up individual model APIs yourself.
- Requirements
- Remote Streamable HTTP endpoint at glif.app/api/mcp. Requires a Glif account and OAuth 2.1 browser sign-in; plain HTTP clients can instead send a glif_v1_ API token as a bearer token. Network access to glif.app.
Installation
In SourceWeft
- Open Glif in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
- Connect the required credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
- Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.
Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.
Use with an agent
Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.
Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/app.glif%2Fglif/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.Other MCP clients
Add this to your client's mcpServers config. The client completes OAuth sign-in on first connect.

Glif MCP Server and Plugin
Glif is a creative agent. Describe what you want to make, and it picks the models and does the work across images, video and audio. It also transcribes, renders HTML, searches the web, runs code and chains multi-step media jobs.
- Endpoint:
https://glif.app/api/mcp(Streamable HTTP, JSON-RPC 2.0) - Auth: OAuth 2.1 sign-in with your Glif account. Plain HTTP clients can send a
glif_v1_...API key from glif.app/settings/api-tokens as a bearer token. - Install page with one-click buttons: https://glif.app/mcp
- Docs for agents: https://glif.app/llms.txt
This repo holds three things:
- A plugin for Claude, Codex, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code, Copilot and Gemini CLI. It connects the hosted server and bundles public skills.
- Public Agent Skills in
skills/. - Registry metadata for the hosted server (
server.json). The server itself runs on glif.app and is not open source.
[!NOTE] Looking for the old locally run stdio server (npm
@glifxyz/glif-mcp-server)? It's deprecated. The code is parked on thelegacy-local-serverbranch.
Install the plugin
The plugin adds the Glif server plus the skills below. Your client opens a browser sign-in the first time it connects.
Claude Code
In a session, /plugin marketplace add glifxyz/glif-mcp-server then /plugin install glif@glif does the same. Run /mcp to sign in.
Claude (web and desktop)
Customize → Plugins → Add marketplace, then enter glifxyz/glif-mcp-server. To add only the server, go to Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector and paste https://glif.app/api/mcp.
Codex
Gemini CLI
Skills only
Any agent that reads Agent Skills can install them with skills.sh:
The skills need the Glif server connected too.
Add just the server
Cursor
Or add to .cursor/mcp.json:
VS Code
ChatGPT
Turn on developer mode, then Settings → Apps & Connectors → Add new connector. Paste https://glif.app/api/mcp and pick OAuth.
Claude Code (server only)
Any other MCP client
More clients (Replit, Hermes, OpenClaw, LM Studio and others) have copy-paste snippets at https://glif.app/mcp.
Skills
Skills spend credits only when you ask for media. If a visual was the agent's own idea, it asks first.
Tools
compose_project does the work. Describe what you want in plain language, including a whole series of variations. It returns a jobId and a projectUrl right away. Pass the jobId to get_job_status as job_id to follow the run and get the media links. The other tools read projects, reopen media, upload reference files and check your account. Call tools/list for the full set, or see https://glif.app/mcp.
Generation spends credits from the signed-in Glif account. Reading and browsing are free. See https://glif.app/pricing.
Develop
CI checks every manifest on each PR. To check locally:
The plugin version lives in .claude-plugin/plugin.json, plugin.json and gemini-extension.json. Bump all three together; CI fails if they differ. Publish server.json to the MCP Registry by bumping its version and tagging v<version> (see publish.yml).

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
