Gifgif MCP Server

by alexmeckes Your server? Claim it
local only

Gifgif runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 203 installs a week from npm.

Fit a video or GIF to its destination's size limit at measured quality, and share a link.

The linked repository no longer exists on GitHub — it was deleted or made private.

This one has been quiet for a while

Quiet is not dead — but it is worth knowing when it wakes up, or when someone else takes it over. We watch the repository and tell you either way.

This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

run in your terminal
claude mcp add gifgif -- npx -y gifgif
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "gifgif": {
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "gifgif"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }
}
~/.codex/config.toml
[mcp_servers.gifgif]
command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "gifgif"]
.cursor/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "gifgif": {
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "gifgif"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }
}
.vscode/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "gifgif": {
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "gifgif"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }
}

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: GIFGIF_SHARE_TOKEN (Share-server token (free: gifgif signup --email [email protected]). Optional; local optimization works without it.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Gifgif — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Gifgif?
Gifgif runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package gifgif was installed 203 times last week.
Is Gifgif still maintained?
The linked repository no longer exists on GitHub — it was deleted or made private. We show this because it changes what you can expect: an unmaintained server may keep answering for months and then stop without warning.
How do I connect Gifgif?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls gifgif straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Gifgif?
The npm package gifgif was installed 203 times in the last week. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
