## Trust breakdown

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically from public evidence about the published package, including repeated runs of it in an isolated sandbox, 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 2026-10-23.

- **Supply Chain Security**: 0/100
  - No malware scan is available for this kind of package: the supply-chain vendors we use do not cover it. This is a permanent gap in our coverage, not a finding about the package.
  - Known CVEs could not be checked: this artifact ships no SBOM or dependency manifest, so there is no dependency list to read.
  - Install-script risk not yet assessed.
  - Dependency health could not be checked: this artifact ships no SBOM or dependency manifest, so there is no dependency list to read.
- **Provenance & Transparency**: 45/100
  - Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL.
  - Provenance check failed: no build-provenance attestation is published.
  - Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).
  - Actively maintained (last published 7 days ago).
  - Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 56/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1047 tokens (~261/item across 4 items; 4 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 30/100
  - Stability observed for 9 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 4 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 5 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.

**Unverified: 1 category.** A category scored 0 because we could not verify it: a data source with nothing on this package, evidence we could not reach, or a check we could not run. We only credit what we can confirm.

## MCP tools (4)

### `make_video` (~422 tokens)

Render a narrated, captioned MP4 from Markdown or a JSON scene spec. Local neural voice, automatic transitions, CPU-only, no API key. Returns the mp4 path plus captions (.srt), poster (.jpg) and a timing report. Takes about 0.5-1x the video length; with fast=true about 0.4x. Call preview_video first to check the layout.

Input parameters:

- `baseDir` (string): Directory that relative media paths (src, music, output) resolve against. Default: the server working directory.
- `fast` (boolean): Only if the user explicitly asks for speed over voice: switches to the fast voice (different, male) and a quick encode. Default (false) keeps the house voice af_heart.
- `format` (string): landscape (default), portrait/shorts (TikTok, Reels), square, 720p
- `markdown` (string): The video as Markdown. "# Title" opens it; each "## Heading" is a scene. "- items" become bullets, "- Label: 42" items a chart, "![](clip.mp4)" media, a lone paragraph a big statement, "**42%** label…
- `output` (string): Where to write the .mp4 (relative to baseDir). Default: <title>.mp4
- `spec` (object): Alternative to markdown: a full JSON spec { title, format, theme, voice, scenes: [{ type, say, ... }] }. Call video_reference for every scene type.

### `preview_video` (~279 tokens)

Fast layout check (about 1 s, no audio): renders one still per scene into a contact sheet and returns it as an image, plus lint suggestions. Use before make_video.

Input parameters:

- `baseDir` (string): Directory that relative media paths (src, music, output) resolve against. Default: the server working directory.
- `markdown` (string): The video as Markdown. "# Title" opens it; each "## Heading" is a scene. "- items" become bullets, "- Label: 42" items a chart, "![](clip.mp4)" media, a lone paragraph a big statement, "**42%** label…
- `spec` (object): Alternative to markdown: a full JSON spec { title, format, theme, voice, scenes: [{ type, say, ... }] }. Call video_reference for every scene type.

### `check_video` (~264 tokens)

Validate a video spec instantly. Returns problems (must fix), warnings (quality suggestions) and the estimated duration.

Input parameters:

- `baseDir` (string): Directory that relative media paths (src, music, output) resolve against. Default: the server working directory.
- `markdown` (string): The video as Markdown. "# Title" opens it; each "## Heading" is a scene. "- items" become bullets, "- Label: 42" items a chart, "![](clip.mp4)" media, a lone paragraph a big statement, "**42%** label…
- `spec` (object): Alternative to markdown: a full JSON spec { title, format, theme, voice, scenes: [{ type, say, ... }] }. Call video_reference for every scene type.

### `video_reference` (~30 tokens)

Reference for writing videos: scene types with examples, transitions, voices, themes, formats and the Markdown syntax.

## Common questions

### What is the makevideo MCP server?

makevideo is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.random00000000/makevideo. Narrated, captioned MP4 videos from Markdown or JSON. Local voice, CPU-only, no API key. This page covers its container image (ghcr.io/random00000000/makevideo).

### Is the makevideo MCP server safe to use?

makevideo scores 41 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 makevideo MCP server expose?

makevideo exposes 4 tools: make_video, preview_video, check_video, video_reference. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 995 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the makevideo MCP server still maintained?

makevideo is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 23 October 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

### What licence is the makevideo MCP server under?

makevideo declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
