GIF Creator MCP
An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that converts video files to GIF animations.
Features
- Convert any video file to GIF format
- Customize output settings (FPS, dimensions, duration)
- Extract specific portions of videos
- High-quality GIF generation with optimized palette
Installation
npm install
npm run build
Usage
Right now, Claude Desktop does not support video input. I'd recommend using a different client like Goose and adding it as an extension.
In Goose, you can use the Gif Creator tool by going to Advanced Settings > Extension > + Add Custom Extension > and in the command pasting:
node /path/to/gif-creator-mcp/dist/index.js
I'd also increase the time out to 1000.
For other MCP clients, you can use the following command to start the server:
{
"mcpServers": {
"gif-creator": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/path/to/gif-creator-mcp/dist/index.js"]
}
}
}
Tools
convert_video_to_gif
Converts a video file to a GIF file, saving it in the same directory as the source video.
Parameters:
video_path(required): Path to the video file to convertfps(optional): Frames per second for the GIF (1-30, default: 10)width(optional): Width of the output GIF (maintains aspect ratio if height not specified)height(optional): Height of the output GIF (maintains aspect ratio if width not specified)start_time(optional): Start time in seconds (default: 0)duration(optional): Duration in seconds (default: entire video)
Examples
Basic conversion
{
"video_path": "/path/to/video.mp4"
}
Custom settings
{
"video_path": "/path/to/video.mp4",
"fps": 15,
"width": 480,
"start_time": 5,
"duration": 10
}
Extract a specific portion
{
"video_path": "/path/to/long-video.mov",
"start_time": 30,
"duration": 5,
"fps": 20
}
Requirements
- Node.js
- FFmpeg (automatically installed via @ffmpeg-installer/ffmpeg)
Notes
- The output GIF is saved in the same directory as the input video
- The filename is the same as the video file but with a .gif extension
- Large videos may take some time to process
- The tool uses optimized palette generation for better quality GIFs
