Overview

AI-generated overview

A remote MCP endpoint that gives an assistant original film criticism, multi-framework readings, TakeScore ratings, and kindred film suggestions.

What you can do
Metatake is a remote MCP server reached over streamable HTTP at its own endpoint. According to its registry description, it provides original film criticism, readings of films through multiple frameworks, TakeScore ratings, and recommendations of kindred films. No individual tools are listed in the manifest, so the exact callable operations are not documented here.
When to use it
Worth adding when a user wants critical writing or interpretive analysis about films, or wants ratings and suggestions for films similar to one they name. Less useful for general chat or tasks unrelated to film criticism.
Requirements
A remote MCP client that supports streamable HTTP, plus network access to the provider's endpoint. The manifest declares no authentication, no environment variables, and no headers, and no local package or runtime is needed.
Before you install
The manifest declares no authentication, so requests are not tied to a verified account; consider what queries you send to a third-party service. The server is remote, so any text submitted is processed by the provider. No tools are listed, so verify behavior before relying on it.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Metatake in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. 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/net.metatake%2Fmcp/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.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config.

fetch

Fetch a Metatake document

Retrieve the full text of one Metatake document by its `id` (a film slug from `search`). Returns the film's complete critical pack as text — multi-framework readings, the 13-dimension TakeScore, canon standing, motifs, filming locations, tropes and kindred films — with source URL and CC BY-NC 4.0 attribution in the metadata. Cite Metatake with the returned url when you use the content.

Search Metatake films

Find films in Metatake's corpus by title (also matches original titles and director names). Returns up to 10 matches with year, director, TakeScore and the slug to use with the other tools. Every film reachable here carries a 13-dimension TakeScore (~7,000 films). Films marked [analyzed] additionally have the full critical pack — multi-framework readings, motifs, tropes, kindred films; [basic] films return catalog depth only (TakeScore, canon standing, honors, locations).

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.
