Clipto MCP
Clipto MCP is a tool that exposes local video libraries to AI agents through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). It enables an agent to search and retrieve clips from terabytes of locally stored video files, turning a large media archive into a queryable source for downstream workflows. The tool is positioned for AI agent use cases where video content needs to be located and extracted without manually scanning footage.
