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 → Why this is hard to score →
Endpoint Security63
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to call this server, and 45 tool(s) never declared a destructiveHint. The MCP spec treats an absent hint as destructive by default, so we cannot call this surface safe. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Unverified
- 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 Usability70
- 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).Pass
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 25080 tokens (~545/item across 46 items; 45 tools + 1 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 Management64
- Stability check failed: schema churn in the 20 days we've observed: 1 tool removals, 0 breaking changes, 0 auth/transport breaks, 2 additions. See how to fix → Fail
Tool Coverage95
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 84% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
- Structured output schemas are declared (80% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
Tool Safety75
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- 0 of 4 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation; "video_projects_delete" implies "delete" and declares no destructiveHint at all, which the MCP spec reads as destructive by default. See how to fix → Fail
- An AI judge read all 47 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass
- Supports UI / widget rendering.Pass
How do I install the Magic Hour MCP server?
Magic Hour is a hosted endpoint at https://mcp.magichour.ai/, 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.

video_to_video_create_video ~780
**What this API does** Create the same Video To Video you can make in the browser, but programmatically, so you can automate it, run it at scale, or connect it to your own app or workflow. **Good for** - Automation and batch processing - Adding video to video into apps, pipelines, or tools **How it works (3 steps)** 1) Upload your inputs (video, image, or audio) with [Generate Upload URLs](https://docs.magichour.ai/api-reference/files/generate-asset-upload-urls) and copy the `file_path`. 2) Send a request to create a video to video job with the basic fields. 3) Check the job status until it's `complete`, then download the result from `downloads`. **Key options** - Inputs: usually a file, sometimes a YouTube link, depending on project type - Resolution: free users are limited to 576px; higher plans unlock HD and larger sizes - Extra fields: e.g. `face_swap_mode`, `start_seconds`/`end_seconds`, or a text prompt **Cost** Credits are only charged for the frames that actually render. You'll see an estimate when the job is queued, and the final total after it's done. For detailed examples, see the [product page](https://magichour.ai/products/video-to-video). MCP guidance: - This starts an async video generation job and returns `id` plus `credits_charged` immediately. If the user wants the finished result, call the `wait_for_video_project` helper with the returned id, or poll the matching `GET /v1/video-projects/{id}` endpoint until status is `complete`, `error`, or `canceled`. Completed projects include `downloads` with direct URLs. The custom wait helper also returns `exact_download_urls` separately from expiration metadata. - For `*_file_path` values, prefer an existing Magic Hour file path or a `file_path` returned by the upload-URL endpoint after the file bytes are uploaded. Direct public media URLs may work when they are stable, fetchable, and return raw file bytes, but hotlinked URLs can fail; when in doubt, use the presigned upload flow…

What is the Magic Hour MCP server?
Magic Hour is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.magichourhq/magic-hour. Create and edit images, videos, and audio through Magic Hour's hosted Streamable HTTP MCP server. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://mcp.magichour.ai/).
Is the Magic Hour MCP server safe to use?
Magic Hour scores 73 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.
What tools does the Magic Hour MCP server expose?
Magic Hour exposes 45 tools: ping, wait_for_video_project, wait_for_image_project, wait_for_audio_project, fetch_image_download, and 40 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 24,788 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.
Does the Magic Hour MCP server require authentication?
No. We connected to Magic Hour without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.
Is the Magic Hour MCP server still maintained?
Magic Hour is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 20 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
