AI Video Atlas — Claude Code MCP server: shots, models, prompts
Lets your agent plan AI video: split a scene into shots, choose a model, pull a ready prompt and price the clip.
claude mcp add --transport http atlas https://mcp.aivideoatlas.com/mcpWhat AI Video Atlas does
The server serves Atlas data: a library of prompts posted by creators, per-second prices as stated by vendors, and prompting notes for individual models. Nothing is generated on the server. Answers come from that data alone, so the same query returns the same result.
Eight tools are exposed. plan_shots turns a plain description into beats and assigns each one a shot, model, prompt and rough cost. find_shot searches the library, best_prompt returns the full prompt for a target model, and recommend_model shows how many shots each model handled and what that adds up to. The rest are get_prices, get_workflow, get_guide and whats_new.
The public instance is free and keyless, with a cap of roughly 60 requests per minute per client; past that you get HTTP 429 with retry-after. IP addresses are not stored — they live in memory only for the counter. Keep personal details out of your queries.
What it helps with
- break a video idea into separate shots
- pick a model for a given kind of shot
- find a ready prompt with creator credit
- estimate what a clip will cost
- check vendor per-second pricing
Example prompts for the agent
- Plan a five-shot drone clip over a city and pick a model for each shot
- Find prompts for a close-up face shot and show me who wrote them
- What would a 10-second clip cost on this model?
