About
Clipto MCP lets AI agents source clips and media moments from a local Clipto library.
Features

- Return relevant clips, timestamps, context, and Clipto links for creative workflows
- Built into the Clipto desktop app with setup through the MCP tab
- Supports workflows such as matching B-roll, editing podcasts, generating rough cuts, and building footage logs
- Designed around local-first media indexing before agent search
