Overview

The Corent MCP server connects AI agents to the Corent API for image and video generation. Corent selects media type, tier, settings, and providers automatically, with fallback handling across providers. Agents can preview a plan and estimated cost, generate within a spend ceiling, create images synchronously, or submit and monitor video jobs. Reach for it when an agent needs media generation without directly managing individual models.

Use cases

  • Generate images from natural-language prompts
  • Create videos from text or source images
  • Preview media plans and estimated costs
  • Enforce spending limits for autonomous generation
  • Monitor video jobs and account status

Key features

  • Automatic image-versus-video planning
  • Model routing with provider fallback
  • Per-call spend ceiling for creation
  • Synchronous image generation with permanent URLs
  • Asynchronous video jobs with polling
  • Balance and tier-health checks

How Corent works

What Corent MCP server does

The Corent MCP server gives an MCP-compatible AI agent access to image and video generation through the Corent API. An agent can describe the desired result in natural language instead of selecting a model or provider directly. Corent handles the routing decision, including whether the request is for an image or video and which tier and settings to use.

The plan tool provides a proposed media type, tier, settings, and cost estimate without starting generation. The create tool follows the same agent-oriented approach but generates the requested result and accepts a per-call spending ceiling. This makes it suitable for autonomous workflows that need a budget boundary.

How it works

Image generation is synchronous: generate_image accepts a text prompt and returns a permanent URL. Video generation is asynchronous: generate_video accepts text or an image and returns a job that can be checked with get_job until it completes.

Corent also exposes account and service information through get_balance, which reports the remaining account balance, and get_status, which reports live tier health. Automatic model routing and provider fallback are handled by the Corent API rather than by the agent.

Setup and configuration

A Corent API key is required. Create one through corent.tech, then provide it as the CORENT_API_KEY environment variable when starting the local server. The package can be launched through npx -y corent-mcp in an MCP client configuration.

For local development, install the npm dependencies, build the project, and start dist/index.js with CORENT_API_KEY set. Claude Code can add the server with its MCP command and the same environment variable.

A hosted Streamable HTTP endpoint is also available at https://mcp.corent.tech/mcp. Send the key in an Authorization: Bearer ... header; X-Corent-Api-Key is also accepted. The hosted endpoint supports query-parameter authentication for Smithery compatibility, but the documented guidance is to prefer headers because URLs may be recorded in logs.

Tools and capabilities

  • plan: Estimates a request and proposes image or video output, tier, and settings without generating it.
  • create: Generates from a natural-language request while enforcing a supplied spend ceiling.
  • generate_image: Produces an image synchronously and returns a permanent URL.
  • generate_video: Starts an asynchronous video job from text or an image.
  • get_job: Checks the state of a video job.
  • get_balance: Reports the remaining account balance.
  • get_status: Reports current tier health.

Limitations and notes

The Corent MCP server requires an active Corent API key and an available account balance. Video requests require asynchronous job handling, so an agent must use get_job to monitor completion. The plan tool estimates and describes a request but does not generate media. Hosted deployments should keep API keys in headers rather than query strings when possible.

Frequently Asked Questions about Corent

Corent is an MCP server that connects AI agents to the Corent API for image and video generation. Its main tools plan requests, create media within a spending limit, generate images synchronously, start video jobs asynchronously, poll job status, check account balance, and inspect live tier health.

Install it by adding an MCP configuration that runs `npx -y corent-mcp` and sets `CORENT_API_KEY`. For development, run `npm install`, `npm run build`, and start `dist/index.js` with the key in the environment.

Set the `CORENT_API_KEY` environment variable for the local server. For the hosted endpoint, send `Authorization: Bearer <key>` to `https://mcp.corent.tech/mcp`; `X-Corent-Api-Key` is also supported.

Yes. Claude Code can add Corent with `claude mcp add corent -e CORENT_API_KEY=co_live_... -- npx -y corent-mcp`. The server can also be configured through standard MCP client settings.

Corent starts video generation as an asynchronous job through `generate_video`. The request can use text or an image, and the agent checks progress and completion with `get_job`.
