Official registry Media and design

Fireship-style short videos from a topic — Remotion motion graphics, word-timed captions, 1080p.

video-render-mcp

Built by **Shreyas** · Shipped by **Globalion**

An MCP server that turns a script into a Hyperplexed-style motion-graphics MP4. Plug the URL into Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible agent and it gains a render_video tool.

  • No watermark. Ever.
  • Free voice (Microsoft Edge Neural TTS). Optional ElevenLabs upgrade via env var.
  • Motion graphics via Remotion — same engine Fireship-style channels use.
  • MCP over streamable-HTTP — one URL, no local installation for the user.

Hosted for free at video-render.regiq.in (20 renders/day per Google account) or self-host with the Docker Compose below.

Use it (hosted)

  1. Visit https://video-render.regiq.in and sign in with Google.
  2. Copy your API key from the dashboard.
  3. Add to Claude Desktop's claude_desktop_config.json:
      {
        "mcpServers": {
          "video-render": {
            "url": "https://video-render.regiq.in/api/mcp",
            "headers": {
              "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_KEY_HERE"
            }
          }
        }
      }
  4. Restart Claude Desktop. Ask it: "Make a 30-second promo video for X, Fireship style, then hand me the MP4."

The agent will call plan_video_scenes, show you the plan, and — on your confirmation — call render_video and return a downloadable MP4 URL.

Tools

ToolPurpose
plan_video_scenesFill a ScenePlan schema (title, targetDurationSec 5–180, script, 1–12 scenes, voice, accent). Returns the plan for user review — no server work.
render_videoSynthesise narration + render the MP4. Returns { videoUrl, durationSec, sizeBytes }. The URL is valid for 7 days.

Both tools take the same ScenePlan shape:

{
  title: string;
  targetDurationSec: number;            // 5..180
  script: string;                       // Claude sizes it to ~150 wpm × duration
  voice: "male-uk" | "female-uk" | "male-us" | "female-us";
  scenes: Array<
    | { type: "title";  copy: string;  subtitle?: string }
    | { type: "code";   language: string; snippet: string; caption?: string; highlightLines?: number[] }
    | { type: "stat";   big: string;   small: string }
    | { type: "cta";    url: string;   copy: string }
  >;
  music?: "upbeat" | "chill" | "tense" | "none";
  accent?: string;                      // hex, defaults to "#0D9488"
}

Self-host

You'll need:

  • Docker + Compose
  • A Google OAuth client — Cloud Console
  • A domain pointed at the server (or run on localhost:3010)

Then:

git clone https://github.com/globalion/video-render-mcp
cd video-render-mcp
cp .env.example .env
# edit .env — set NEXTAUTH_SECRET, GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID/SECRET, NEXTAUTH_URL, PUBLIC_BASE_URL
docker compose up -d

Open http://localhost:3010, sign in, copy your key, point Claude Desktop at http://localhost:3010/api/mcp.

Limits (hosted tier)

  • 20 successful renders per Google account per UTC day
  • 720p H.264
  • Up to 180-second videos
  • MP4s expire 7 days after render

Self-host removes all of these.
