ai.kavel/kavel-mcp — MCP Server for Media & Images

Kavel MCP

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.

What it does

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

Featured generators
