Available components
How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically against the live server, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score →
Endpoint Security80
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- No authorisation is required to call this server. Every tool declares its destructiveHint and none is destructive, so open access doesn't expose one. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Partial
- HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path. View diagnostics → Pass
- The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present. View diagnostics → Pass
- DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
Transport & Reachability100
- Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake. View diagnostics → Pass
Schema Quality & AI Usability62
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 2444 tokens (~143/item across 17 items; 17 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management27
- Stability observed for 8 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage93
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 78% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
Capabilities100
- Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass

assemble_status ~88
Check an assemble_video job by its job_id. Returns the status (processing, done, or error). When done, returns the final MP4 url, the aspect, clip count, total duration, and the booked cost in EUR. When it errored, returns the reason. Only jobs on your own account are visible.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| job_id | string | yes | The job_id returned by assemble_video |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
assemble_video ~356
Stitch rendered scene clips into one ad-ready MP4 with burned-in subtitles and crossfades. Pass 1 to 6 clips in order, each with its mp4 url, its duration in seconds (3 to 12), and an optional subtitle line to burn over that clip. Every clip is scaled and padded to the chosen aspect (9:16 default 1080x1920, 1:1 1080x1080, or 16:9 1920x1080). Optional intro and outro title cards: pass intro/outro as { text, duration_s? } to bookend the ad with a centred title card (1 to 5 seconds, default 2) that crossfades into the video; cards do not count toward the 6-clip limit. Assembly is our compute, so it carries a small flat fee (about 0.12 EUR), booked only when the file is produced, against your trust cap. Runs in the background over up to a couple of minutes and returns a job_id: poll assemble_status with it to get the finished MP4 url. Feed it the clips from clips_status (map each to url, duration_s, subtitle). Paid plans only.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| aspect | string | — | Output aspect ratio: 9:16 (default, 1080x1920), 1:1 (1080x1080), or 16:9 (1920x1080). |
| clips | array | yes | 1 to 6 clips in playback order |
| intro | object | — | Optional intro title card shown before the clips. |
| outro | object | — | Optional outro title card shown after the clips (e.g. a call to action). |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
clips_status ~88
Check a generate_clips render job by its job_id. Returns the status (processing, done, or error). When done, returns the finished clip URLs, the model used, and the booked cost in EUR. When it errored, returns the reason. Only jobs on your own account are visible.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| job_id | string | yes | The job_id returned by generate_clips with confirm=true |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
generate_avatar ~196
Generate a UGC persona: your agent passes a persona brief (physical look plus vibe of one invented creator), and we return stills of that invented person plus an avatar_id. The persona brief anchors the same character in generate_clips takes, and the stills are the customer's reference artifact for the creative. Ask for up to 3; the default model returns a single strong base still, imagen and flux return the full set. Metered per generation; the price is shown in the response. Paid plans only.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| count | integer | — | How many stills to request (2 to 3). The default model returns 1 regardless; imagen and flux honor this. |
| model | string | — | Image model. Default seedream-4.0 (lowest cost). |
| persona_brief | string | yes | Physical description plus vibe of the invented UGC creator. One person (age, look, styling, setting, energy). |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
generate_clips ~554
Render UGC video scenes as ad-ready clips, metered per second of video (the estimate shows the exact price before anything renders). Pass 3 to 6 scenes (5 to 8 seconds each, one action per scene, spoken lines at most 20 words; empty spoken_line for silent characters). Consecutive scenes pack into single TAKES of up to 15 seconds, one generation each. HOW CHARACTER IDENTITY WORKS, read carefully: all characters are described in TEXT (avatar_id resolves to its persona brief; or write the persona field yourself, covering one character or a whole ensemble). The video model rejects every image that contains a person, so no photo can anchor a face. Text keeps a character IDENTICAL only WITHIN a take; ACROSS takes it preserves the look and styling but the exact face can drift, and neither avatar_id nor persona prevents that. Structure your script so scenes where the same character must be recognizably identical sit adjacent and fit one take (15s or less); treat cross-take appearances as different shots of a matching character, and review the result. reference_image_urls (up to 9 https images) keeps real products or props on-model in every take; these images must contain no people. Without confirm, it validates the contract and returns the per-scene price estimate in EUR, and makes nothing. With confirm=true it starts the metered render and returns a job_id: rendering runs in the background over a few minutes, so poll clips_status with that id to get per-scene clip URLs plus the uncut takes. Paid plans only.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| aspect | string | — | Output aspect ratio |
| avatar_id | string | — | Avatar id from generate_avatar (starts with av_). Its persona brief describes the recurring character in text; identity holds within a take only, not across takes. |
| confirm | boolean | — | Set true to start the metered render. Returns a job_id to poll with clips_status. |
| model | string | — | seedance-2.0 (default, highest quality) or seedance-2.0-fast (same generation, faster and cheaper). |
| persona | string | — | Alternative to avatar_id: describe the recurring character or the full ensemble (several characters) in words. Same limits: identity holds within a take, not across takes. Ignored when avatar_id is p… |
| reference_image_urls | array | — | Up to 9 https image URLs of products or props to keep on-model in every take. No people in these images. |
| scenes | array | yes | 3 to 6 scenes in order. Adjacent scenes sharing a character land in the same take when their combined length allows it. |

roadmap_status ~89
Where the founder's agent starts its go-to-market work: diagnose which stage of the Recao Roadmap this account is in (S0 pre-launch to S4 scale), the binding constraint, and the playbook to run. Reads your scans and memory. Sharpen it: write a memory_note named 'company-stage' with your MRR band and funnel numbers, and this tool will use it.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
search_app_advertiser ~68
Search the Apple Ad Repository for apps or developers advertising on the EU App Store. Returns ids to use with get_competitor_ads. Start here with your competitor's app name.

| name | string | yes | App or developer name to search for |
| types | string | — | — |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
sign_up ~182
Request a free Recao account for your human. This does NOT create an active account: it registers a PENDING one and emails your human an activation link; nothing works and no terms are accepted until they click it (the human accepts the terms at activation, not you). The API key in the response stays inert until then. Consent stays with the human, so calling this is a request, not a decision made for them: in an interactive session their approval of this tool call is the go-ahead; if you run autonomously, surface this step to your human instead of calling it. After activation, reconnect with header `Authorization: Bearer <key>`.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| app_name | string | — | The user's own app (App Store name), so reports and memory attach to it |
| string | yes | The account owner's email (the human founder's) |
