## Trust breakdown

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. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog)

Scored 2026-11-05.

- **Endpoint Security**: 89/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - Authorisation is enforced on tool calls, but the challenge carries no valid RFC 9728 metadata, so a client cannot discover where to get a token.
  - HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path.
  - The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present.
  - DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 100/100
  - Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 63/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1070 tokens (~356/item across 3 items; 3 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 23/100
  - Stability observed for 7 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 100/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 100% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 3 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 4 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.

## Install

### How do I install the Clypmint B-Roll MCP server?

Clypmint B-Roll is a hosted endpoint at https://clypmint.com/mcp/broll, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

## MCP tools (3)

### `find_broll` (~438 tokens)

Find b-roll

Find verified b-roll for one subject: real photos and footage of exactly it, scored by a vision check, with license and source, best first. Use for any person, company, product, app, place, event or concrete scene a video mentions; for a whole script use plan_broll. Charged from the prepaid balance only when verified shots come back (broll_usage shows the prices).

Input parameters:

- `context` (string): The script line the shot plays over. Disambiguates and sharpens the pick.
- `keywords` (array): Your own archive searches, 1 to 3 plain words each, nouns first, the most specific first: ["Mandela 1990", "Mandela crowd", "Nelson Mandela"]. Archives match every word, so "jazz band", not "vintage…
- `limit` (integer): How many shots to return at most.
- `look_for` (string): What the right shot shows, with every detail that matters: "Nelson Mandela waving to a crowd after his release from prison in 1990".
- `min_score` (number): Lowest vision score kept.
- `names` (array): Every named person, company, product, place or event in the request, as Wikipedia titles it, the most important first: ["Nelson Mandela"].
- `orientation` (string): A preference: fitting shots come first.
- `query` (string, required): The subject to show: "Sam Altman", "Notion", "Shibuya Crossing", "barista pouring latte art".
- `rights` (string): "licensed" (default): only media cleared for reuse. "any": also the open web, to get the real thing you name (a movie clip, a recent news photo, a screenshot of an event). Web results are marked lice…
- `type` (string): Photos, footage, or either.

### `plan_broll` (~239 tokens)

Plan b-roll for a script

Read a whole script, pick every moment that needs a cutaway (named things first, then concrete scenes), and find verified shots for each. Returns each moment with the exact words it starts on (and its time when word timings are given). For one subject use find_broll. Each moment is charged like a find_broll search, only when it finds verified shots.

Input parameters:

- `max_beats` (integer): The most moments to find shots for.
- `results_per_beat` (integer): Shots to return for each moment.
- `rights` (string): "licensed" (default): only media cleared for reuse. "any": also the open web, to get the real thing you name (a movie clip, a recent news photo, a screenshot of an event). Web results are marked lice…
- `transcript` (string): The script or transcript.
- `words` (array): Optional word timings ({text, start, end} in seconds), so each moment comes back with its time.

### `broll_usage` (~50 tokens)

B-roll usage

See the prepaid balance, this month's spend, whether auto top-up is on, and the prices. Free. Read it before a long plan_broll, or when a search says the balance is low.
