An MCP server for Kavel — bring Kavel's AI photo & video generators into any MCP client (Claude, Cursor, Cline, …). Ask for an effect, get a model-tuned prompt, and open the right tool to generate it on www.kavel.ai.
No account or API key required to use this server — it helps you pick a tool and craft a prompt, then hands off to Kavel's free-tier generators.
| Tool | What it returns |
|---|---|
list_kavel_tools | Browse/search Kavel's generators by goal (e.g. "make my dog look royal") |
build_kavel_prompt | A model-tuned prompt recipe for a chosen effect, customized with your details |
open_in_kavel | The direct generator URL, pre-set to the right mode |
list_kavel_models | The image/video models Kavel runs and what each is good at |
Run directly with npx:
Add to your MCP config (claude_desktop_config.json or .mcp.json):
Point the client at the command npx -y kavel-mcp (stdio transport).
This repo also ships the kavel-image-studio agent skill (skills/kavel-image-studio/) — it helps pick the right Kavel generator, craft a model-tuned prompt, and hand off the generate link.
Install via the open agent-skills CLI:
Or as a Claude Code plugin marketplace:
