A side-by-side look at the Musevate MCP and Imaginode MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose Musevate MCP for multimedia process work as a local process; choose Imaginode for multimedia process over a hosted endpoint. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.
list_models, quote_video, generate_video.list_models, list_templates, get_template.Rows where the two servers differ are marked.

list_modelsEvery model available, with maximum length, the sizes it offers, whether it can generate sound, and what it costs in creditsquote_videoPrices a generation without running it, and names the model that would serve itgenerate_videoReturns immediately with an id; rendering takes about a minutecheck_videoStatus, and once finished a link valid for one hourcheck_balanceCredits remaininglist_modelsCatalogue of image and video models with prices in credits and billable options.list_templatesThe curated canvas templates: what each produces, its models, the approximate cost of one run.get_templateFull recipe of a template (nodes, models, prompts, wiring, example renders) and the link that opens it in the canvas.generate_imageGenerates an image and waits for the result: the URL is returned directly. Default model: Nano Banana 2.generate_videoStarts a video generation and returns a `request_id` plus the exact cost. Default model: Seedance 2.0.get_generation_statusFollows a generation (`running`, `completed` with output URLs, or `failed` with automatic refund).Paste either block (or both) into your client config, e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json. We only show a config when the install command is confirmed.
